Greater Mark of Desolation x9 Everyone loves armor pen. I perfer armor pen over ad runes because sure the ad runes will help you early game. But the armor pen will help you the whole game.

Really your job as Jarvan in team fights is to pop up the enemy and seperate them. Start off by trying to pop up as many people as you can. Try to have
Demacian Standard down all the time. This give your team the extra armor and Attack speed.
This Is very important when you do a team fight. READ carefully. DO NOT trap any allies in
Cataclysm. The goal I try to have is to trap 2 or 3 enemy champions in your Ult. If you trap allies in it then you get them killed. Seperate and destroy the enemy. Not to many champions have the ability Jarvan does to seperate and disrupt the enemy.

Jarvan Jungle path Starting at Golems
Items
x5
After you have
Wriggle's Lantern and
Mercury's Treads Then the rest of you items should depend on what the other team has. Or you can use items from the the items i have at the beginning. Sometimes when I jungle I get
Warmog's Armor, because when you have so much health and you have
Wriggle's Lantern which give you 18% lifesteal. So it makes you a bit harder to kill.
Summoner Spells
OR
Maybe
Really these are the only combos I think would be useful and work. i guess you could pick up
Ignite maybe. Buy i picked those 3 so they will help you gank easier. For Ex:
Ghost to get to and kill the enemy fast.
Exhaust to slow the enemy and kill.
Flash to get to them quicker. But
Ignite is cool also. I just put the 3 easiest summoner spells to use.

Farming with Jarvan IV is really easy. As you level up your
Demacian Standard it will get easier. Also with you passive last hitting is easier. Have you ever misjudged on your last hit and then the minion has a little hp left and gets killed by another minion? Well with Jarvan's passive you do more damage on the first hit. So misjuding by a little bit won't matter. Also once your level 9ish your
Demacian Standard and
Dragon Strike combo will kill the caster minions.

You need to farm all the time. I see to many people as Jarvan thinking the gold items and kills is good enough for gold. No it is not. You can still get kills and harass. But realistically you are not going to get better if you dont last hit good. That is something I can't stress enough. Grab
Teleport and try to only go back when it is up. You don't want to lose a wave or 2 of Experience. Harass with your
Demacian Standard and
Dragon Strike. Help mid lane out if you have no jungler. Don't be a **** to people. :)
