I am having trouble getting a solid abyss build that can farm T12 comfortably. I started with DC and have been using it and added BS in the mix. I am using the eyes demon. I tried rampage and did like it much. I tried using the swarm instead of DF, but it was pretty bad. I tried the eyes unique ring, I found it worse than using a leg ring.
No matter how I mix it up, I am getting much better results with hellfire occultist . I can clear pit 100 in under 5 minutes and cleared pit 110, but it is not smooth or good.
You dare! Fear my big eye balls.

I made a build I call “AGD” or “Abyssal Greater Demon” where I use ALL Abyss Greater Demons and the Chains of Horazon set to buff their damage per greater demon you have out. The one I found that works the best is using the Lurid Pact ring to buff Rampage as your main nuke for trash by spamming recast which kills everything on your screen every 1 second or so. For bossing, you set up Profane Sentinel on it and summon every greater demon to nuke down the boss.
So your bars look something like Laalish, Rampage, Swarm (no variant), Profane Sentinel, Blazing Skull, and Nether Step.
You also wear the Ae’grom’s chest to get permanent twin Ae’groms despite having chosen Laalish, because of the Chains of Horazon set.
So you maximize Ae’grom’s “30%[x] for each summoned Greater Demon” and keeping Laalish on CD provides you with Abodian, Valloch as cosmetic demons which buff you further, as well as activating your 200%[x] 5-set bonus.
So on a boss, your rotation goes something like, Profane Sentinel just before they spawn, Laalish, Rampage, Swarm, then throw out your Blazing skull at them and have it sit under the boss, while you spam Rampage.
You can also use the Profane Sentinel Ring for bossing, since that’s what mostly kills them. But even without the ring, my Sentinel is doing at least 1 trillion damage after a few hits.

Ya, I switched to the chains set and what a difference. I can occasionally hit trillions with the one beam, but not beyond that. Out of curiosity which aspects do you use? I have been using the 2 aspects that buff summons and crush.
I got tired of having the zoo from Chains of Horazon set, so I switched to the Shadow set and modified the build slightly to make it more straightforward. Currently using Brutal on the neck, Hellbent on gloves, and Accelerating on ring. Weapon is Grandfather, other ring is Lurid Pact (of course) and Unique Charm is Night Terror.
Eventually the goal is to find a good Night Terror and wear it, drop Grandfather for a Brutal Aspect 2-hander, and put a Seed of Horazon charm in the talisman. So far, however, finding a good Night Terror is proving impossible, so I will likely finish the season with Brutal on 2-hander, Accelerating on Amulet, and Insidious on ring. (Gloves stay Hellbent Commander).
