Honestly it's not clear to me why someone would want to use scepter over d/p for power specter. Twilight combo is a nice easy-to-use attack (as long as your target can't block projectiles or LOS it) but you give up AoE stealth, an unblockable shadowstep, and the wonderful dagger 2 for it; I don't personally think that's worth the tradeoffs. Scepter does also have the ability to support allies so it has nice support upside in a teamfight, but condi specter is *much* better suited for this hybrid roamer/support archetype IMO.
Honestly other than the weapon choices the rest of this makes sense to me though. Chronomancer rune and critical strikes are absolutely the way to go for power spectre. I'd suggest s/d and d/p as the weapon choices to really make this shine.
Contrary to comment from Invogue, build does have condi cleanse on both shadowstep return and in shroud from Hungering Darkness.
Remains a strong spec, but the nerfs and changes in meta renders specter less useful overall.
No stability so any cc is devastating, no condi cleanse. Mobility is only on sward 2 anymore and you have to use all your cooldowns for mobility.
Good damage.
Perhaps the strongest EoD build of the expansion. Highly mobile even without shortbow, brings lots of damage to the group and even plenty of group utility.
