Tip for your item build in the mid/top part, you should get rid of all the excess items. First dorans, boots, berserker, phage, frozen mallet, kindle gem, zekes(because I believe the order does not matter and people will figure out on their own what to get), giant's belt, 1 more item for warmogs or warmogs here, atmas, plus u need 1 more item since thats 6 items including your doran's which is always sold by the end. That will look a lot better and ruby crystal, long sword, phage, etc.



Great advice! Once I'm on my laptop(not my phone) I'll get on that. Thanks!

As I mention multiple times, Smite is absolutely not necessary. While it doesn't hurt to have, having both Exhaust and Ghost dring your ganks is extremely effective. Furthermore, after you get Madred's Razors you'll be clearing your jungle so fast you won't miss Smite at all. With some champions like Tyrndamere or Nocture, I find myself very grateful for Smite at the beginning, but when I tried Smite with Shen I always wished I had taken Exhaust before I even hit level 4. Also, boots certainly are fine, but the cloth armor will generally keep your health up a bit more so that you can feel more comfortable ganking before going back to base for the first time. In addition, the armor itself and the Exhaust will make turret diving with your first gank much more effective, and your first use of Ghost should be more than enough speed for you first gank. But still, if you find boots work better for you, go for it!

Thanks for the feedback, and you are correct that I should better lay out my jungling route. I'll get on that soon!

All junglers need smite, to secure buffs + dragon + baron which means it effective through out the game, and if i meet a person without smite i will steal their buffs more often can i would do my own i will steal both baron and dragon as much as i can, so yes smite is needed for jungling it's only a bonus that you clear faster
