Vespine soldiers are offspring of Vespula. They will only appear if the team allows a lux grub's meter to reach zero, at which point a vespine soldier will burst out of the lux grub, while also healing Vespula and the abyssal portal. Players will need to deal with the vespine soldiers while also working against Vespula if this occurs.

Vespine soldiers regenerate its stats at a rate of 1 per 16 ticks when flying, faster than the standard rate of 1 per 100 ticks. When walking, they regenerate at the rate of 1 per 10000 (i.e. never).[2]

Vespine soldiers have relatively low health. Similarly to Vespula, they will drop to the ground after their health becomes low and become immune to ranged. In order to kill them off, the player must use melee. If they are not killed while grounded, they will explode after a some time, dealing damage to anyone near it. Another grub will appear shortly after it dies.
