If your attack is going well, you have walked into an ambush.
Spirit Visage is kinda mandatory on Soraka in case it wasn't obvious..
@Shadow
Abyssal Scepter is kinda meh on Soraka. Good item, but more optimal for tanks/offtanks or casters that need MR.

I'm a strong independent black mage who don't need no mana.
Rod of Ages is a must. I dont think spirit visage is mandatory on her, but on a tank build it is definetely good.
Other items that can be considered are: Rylai, Aegis of the protector and Soul Shroud.
The main purpose of a tanky Soraka is to become a not optimal target, so you can waltz into teamfights, heal your allies and debuff the enemies with Starcall spam. If they focus you, then you can survive long enough to give your team lots of free hits.

Abyssal is really good on a tank soraka IF your team has good Casters because you will stack the Abyssal + Starcall debuffs.
You can try to stack RoA too, its fun if you can get 2 before 30 min mark.

@Searz
The reason for that is, you get
Zhonya's Hourglass for AP and armor, so why not balance that with some AP and MR, plus an aura to support your team?
And it goes very well with
Starcall

Retreating?! Hell no, we're just attacking the other direction!
I want to try this, I never play soraka.

I looked through the items and wondered, "Is there enough items with AP to make a tanky Soraka..."
I came up with "Yes" Discuss how it could be done.
