Phorid

Phorid is an Boss only found when an Invasion takes over the Assassination mission of a Planet. After players defeat it and reach the extraction point, they will receive either a Neuroptics, Chassis, or Systems blueprint upon mission completion. Upon death, Phorid has a chance of dropping rare resources of the planet it appears on.
==Appearance==
Phorid is a larger, stronger version of the standard Charger, with bright blue nodes all over its body. Despite its massive size, it is as fast or even faster than the already agile Chargers, and a single melee swipe from it will deal a large amount of damage.
==Attacks==
*Claw Swipe
**Phorid's primary form of attack. Phorid will run up and swipe at the player, with each swipe dealing 300 damage, scaled by enemy level.
*Sonic Scream
**Phorid stands still and lets out a scream, distorting the screen and dealing 20 ticks of 10 damage over 2 seconds.
*Spine-Strike
**Phorid launches a cluster of yellow homing bolts that deal 225 damage, scaled by enemy level. The bolts home in on their target, but are destroyed on impact with terrain and objects.
*Health Regen
**Phorid will slowly regenerate health after not being attacked for a short duration.
==Taunts==
Phorid, like other bosses, has unique taunts. Here is a list of them:
*"(Revoke the frailties of flesh. Let us in.)"
*"(We are the vessel through which immortality is achieved. Assimilate, [player name].)"
==Bugs==
*Killing Phorid as it is casting Sonic Scream will cause the screen distortions to stay even after its normal duration.
*Sometimes (due to an unknown cause) Phorid's walking/movement animation will not be played.
==Notes==
*According to the Lotus, a spy cell (presumably one of her operatives) had gone missing while exploring Phorid's lair, hence the call for its assassination.
**At first Lotus claims she has no idea what attacked her recent scouts which is why you are being sent to kill whatever it is, but after hearing the Phorid's screams, she identifies the monster and describes in great detail how to survive against Phorid.
==Trivia==
*No matter what faction you are siding with, the tileset will always be the Grineer Asteroid
*Phorid was formerly the boss of Eris and was located in Naeglar. ultimately changed the ruling faction of Eris to the Corpus and now is reverted to the Infested as of . Update 11 also changed much of the mechanics of Phorid's fight.
**Prior to Update 11, Phorid's melee swipes could knock the victim down, and its scream attack would constantly stagger all players for its duration. These qualities were removed to reduce player frustration.
**Update 11 also altered Phorid's arena by removing most, if not all, of the obstacles in the center of the field, likely to prevent pathfinding exploits.
*Phorid shares its name with a family of flies that have a pronounced hump on their thorax, much like Phorid itself.
*Very rarely, like General Sargas Ruk, Phorid will "double-drop" mods, although it is purely a visual glitch and the second mod is a resource.
*Although Phorid shares its model with the Charger, Phorid does not possess a head hitbox.
