3.25 Shroud of the Lightless Power Siphon of the Archmage Hierophant - All content viable

Introduction
I wanted to brew a build with Shroud of the Lightless, this is what I came up with:
https://pobb.in/ndv79jQpzTOU
I chose Power Siphon of the Archmage (PSoA), because Shroud gives increased max Mana and elemental pen for every Abyss Jewel (currently 9 equipped), which works great together.

PROS
-fairly tanky for ranged char (98K EHP) thanks to arcane cloak, ailment immune
-high damage (~30 Mil DPS)
-very fast mapper (+200% movement speed)
-reasonable prize (ethical non-mageblood version ~200 div)
-lot of room for upgrades and spending currency

CONS
-difficult to cap resistance
-some Uber bosses will 1 - shot you :/

WHAT YOU NEED

Shroud of the lightless
Indigon
Haste-Sublime Vision
2x Megalomaniac with stubborn Student + 1 other useful note
Elder Warlock gloves with essence crit chance, supported by faster attacks + crit multi
2x T1 Mana fracture wands, crafting wands is pretty simple
2x High res rings with mana
9-10 good abyss jewel (Mana, Int, ES, rest are the most important stats)
I hope you like it, feel free to message me if you have questions/tips :)
videos will follow :)

Possible Questions and answers:

Why no Mageblood?
-I am too poor for that :D

Why only Haste Aura?
-Wrath not worth it, since we have ~5000 flat lightning dmg from our skill -> Haste is most effective Aura for the build
-Clarity not necessary, since we leech 3k Mana/s anyways
-Can use Haste with Blessing and spend our full mana pool with Arcane cloak, resulting in maximum damage from Indigon and giving us a lot of EHP.
-We are able to use sublime vision to be even faster
