(don't have a decent amulet or ring atm, I'm still farming).
In addition, I have found some other useful sacred uniques (armor, gloves, boots...) but I don't really know if they are good enough to combine.
I'm also learning to make some runewords to be stronger.
If you want to use Deadly Strike, go for it. It can be effective if you can stack enough of it, especially considering damage conversion on skills such as Bladestorm and Stormblast takes place
after DS is applied. This means the full converted damage gets the benefit, not just the Physical part of it. As for Auhe Runes, once you have enough DEX to achieve max block, you can socket your gear with whatever you want.
That said, you'll want a weapon with high Physical damage to make DS worth it.

is fine for added
flat Elemental/Magic damage, but as far as I know, that damage isn't factored in to the DS damage calculation. This would mean the actual damage a DS does when using Starhawk will be much lower than what the Character Sheet would have you believe.
As for the rest of your gear, you have some expensive pieces for a clvl 100 character. You can certainly make them work, but your gear set lacks cohesion. For example: your body armor, helm, belt, shield, and boots suggest you're building WDM-based character, but your weapon, gloves, and amulet suggest you're building an Elemental/proc-based character. Either character type is fine, it just doesn't look like you've decided which one you want to make yet. Once you do, choosing the right gear will be much easier.
