[3.20] Abyss Jewel Stack + Squire Wander - Power Siphon Deadeye

Hi!

I wanted to share my Power Siphon Deadeye build, which revolves around stacking high amounts of flat damage via Abyss Jewels, using Replica Shroud of the Lightless and other Abyss Items, such as 2-Socket Tombfists or Hollow Fossil crafted items. Since wearing Replica Shroud of the Lightless takes up the only spot for a 6-linked item, I am using The Squire in conjunction with a Shaper Wand to still have a 6-link main skill! Shaper wands can roll mods such as "Socketed Skills deal 40% more Attack Damage" and "Socketed Skills are supported by Level 20 Increased Critical Strikes" (which also comes with local critical strike chance %), making our main skill effectively an "8-link". The lack of flat damage on the weapon itself is offset by the huge amount of Abyss Jewels that fit into the build.

Haven't yet finished crafting my wand since I ran out of money and can't afford a brick, goal is to Aisling a Suffix for either attack speed or double damage and then craft the other.

I'm very happy with how the build is performing damage wise and wanted to share my take, since I think there is a lot of potential for this tech. The biggest downside of the build is the poor defense, if anyone has any ideas on how to squeeze some defenses into the build without completely dumpstering the DPS I would be interested to hear them.
