Lack of SP Debuff Options

In light of the Old Scratch 25% Spell Power buff (and possibly more if there is a bug), I suggested in a separate thread that the Evil Eye power series would help offset this new introduction (or even current Spell Power doubloons). However, I'm at loss as to how other classes beyond WD could use this as I can't find a single piece of gear with any lines of that power. I'm posting in the Bilge Pump as I have to assume some of the gear is either bugged or was an oversight in applying to the gear, since this is the only line exclusive to a single class that I'm aware of (outside of truly unique powers like Reckless Frenzy, Gallant Defense, Charm, etc).

1.) Is it true that not a single piece of gear gives either Evil Eye or Eye Swarm (I understand if Ocuboros is not applied to gear as it is the top rank version).

2.) Is it true that besides Doctor Noh, none of the other WD companions can choose this power? (if they could...this might help the complaint of the lack of desire for WD companions).

3.) Is it true that no pet provides this ability either as selfish or "grants".

Even outside of PvP, other player classes besides WD should be able to debuff PvE enemy Spell Power through the use of gear or through WD companions (just not as well as a WD themselves). The increase in Witch Hunter talents to WD companions was greatly appreciated to deal with spell caster enemy...but that seems like the only major option (strike for strike).

If this series is intended to be "exclusive" to WD players, is there a mechanic at play to limit the availability? Even multiple Swash companions receive Shadowdance...that isn't available on gear.

Not a Single piece of gear gives this ability, however 2 companions do, however they are crown shop only, (Undead Monkey and Doctor No). No pets get this ability I think.
