I've been looking for a nice AD assassin to play it from the jungle and looking at the common builds, NOT recommended guide builds, but actual builds people who frequently play him use in game, and I don't really understand why so many people are building Sterak's Gage on him as his first or second item after his jungle item. I mean sure the shield is nice but it doesn't offer any sort of extra damage towards his abilities since everything scales off bonus AD and Sterak's increases his base AD.

Can anyone explain to me why it's built so often on him? Does the low cost for nice defenses really justify getting basically no bonus damage from it?
