Suggestion Regarding Specter as a whole

Specter right now has nothing other than Siphon regarding thief professions. Deadeye, daredevil, core can have stolen skills, however, not Specter

Give Specter access to some Guild Wars 1 Hexes in place of the Stolen Skills but call it Shadow Binds {get it? bind?....hotkey?] These "hexes" add new effects to your currently Siphoned enemy/buff your targeted ally that you are siphoning from. They get SUPERCHARGED if you are in Shadow Shroud!

  • Augury of Death: Half Range Hex Spell. (5...29...35 seconds.) Inflict Deep Wound condition (5...17...20 seconds) and Shadow Step to target foe the next time damage would drop this foe's Health below 50%.  
    • Gw2 Remake: Barrier applied to your current siphoned enemy is reduced by 10%, bleeding is applied and the target is tethered by shadowy chains. If the foe drops below 50% then you shadowstep to the target. Siphoned Allies have increased barrier by 5% and if they drop below 50% you Shadow Step to them, heal them and grant them regeneration and protection.
  • Dark Prison: Hex Spell. Shadow Step to target foe. This foe moves 33% slower (1...5...6 seconds).
    • Gw2 Remake: Shadow Step to your siphoned enemy on use and chill your foe. Chill on your current siphoned enemy lasts 5% longer and causes them to move 10% slower. Siphoned Allies gain quickness for the same duration as the chill.

Enduring Toxin    Hex Spell. (5 seconds.) Causes -1...4...5 Health degeneration. Renewal: if the target foe is moving when this hex ends.

  • Gw2 Remake: Grasping Shadows: Poison your foe. If your targeted enemy is siphoned again while they are poisoned then then they will suffer from 1 additional poisoned and gain access to Grasping Shadows on next siphon. Grasping Shadow misses/fails/blocked then it is disabled for 10s and cannot be obtained for the duration. Tethered allies will be bathed in shadow and pulse barrier for up to 5 allied players. The layers and maximum grasping shadows increase to a maximum of X times before capping out. 
  • Mirrored Stance    Hex Spell. (10...30...35 seconds.) You enter any stance used by target foe.
  • Gw2 Remake: Boons or stances your opponent obtains you will copy then reduce their boon duration by 2 seconds until Siphon is recharged. Tethered Ally: When your siphon recharges after using Mirrored Stance, your Tethered Ally will obtain all benefits from Mirrored Stance during its duration on end of Mirrored Stance (Siphon Recharge) on the enemy. X allies recieve lesser effect around your Tethered Ally.

If Anet were to add something like that, I'd want those to also act as a sort of Mark on your siphoned enemy or ally. Using your hex could destroy that siphon mark but will also automatically retarget that siphon/tether if they were untargeted or at least give visual and sound indicators guiding you to that enemy or ally target with a pulsing strobe that tapers off so you can fish around for who you're trying to stay on.
