Yeah, I wanted to give him unique powers as he doesn't have an arsenal of items like Link does. Dark Link gets magic and Link gets hook-shot and overpowered musical instruments.

Hey Apollo I was thinking, generally with doppelganger situations there is always one fundamental difference between the copy and original (aside from attitude). You posted earlier as Dark Link that he needed to defeat the Hero and corrupt the Master's Sword and if he were to do so then he would be granted a human life. Bearing this in mind maybe even with his magicks he can't completely replicate the Master's Sword. The one he wields may be the same design and look very similar but there would be something wrong with it compared to the original.

What do you think?
