This is just my opinion, but reflects my experience after playing this game for over a year now. The only syndicate specters that I find of some use are Corrupted Lancers and Shield Ospreys. The others just die too quickly or barely provide any help at all (other than a brief distraction to enemies). If you are short on credits/resources, my recommendation is to farm and build Phase specters instead of syndicate ones (with the exepction perhaps of Ospreys, which can become handy during defense missions). You will get five Phase specters for every bp and just 30,000 credits. P specters will spawn three levels above the base level of the enemies in the mission you are doing, so that's reasonable support for the price you are paying to craft them. I use Rhino Prime to model my specters and any combo of weapons with high base damage (your specters will not use your weapons' mods, so you cannot build for crit or status). Ideally, your weapons will be fast too, keeping in mind that specters have limited AI, so you want them to perform fast to survive as long as possible.
