-Self-reliant

-Can't kill tanks very quickly
-Somewhat vulnerable to mages in midgame
Just enough to get your first jungle trip down, and FAST.

More jungle efficiency
More jungle efficiency
The sooner you get these, the sooner you can zip around and stop your team feeding (or gank the enemy team). Failing to rush these will make your farm slower and your ganks sparse.
More surv, plenty to keep you at full hp between fights for the rest of the game.
As long as you remember to pop it (i suggest binding it to mouse wheel or side button), the absolute best early jungle ganking item. On top of that, stacking with Madred's Razors makes you bulldoze the jungle creeps.
Around midgame, and since you have Madred's Razors already, the most efficient item after Sword of the Divine. You shouldn't need any surv items yet, if you runed right.
A matter of preference and usually worth the money, skip this item if only one enemy is using armor at all, but in general you will pick it up.
You are a farming beast, and this item fits right in with that role for some defense. As a nice bonus, you don't have to debate over what to buy to counter the enemy at this point.
OR
At this point, Atma's Impaler will be your standard item, but FoN can be better if they have any super-fed mages.
Bloodthirsterx1-2 (2 would be skipping and replacing Warmog's) if you have already snowballed the enemy team into oblivion and they are of no concern, you just need to push towers down.
Thornmail if the enemy has one fed, or multiple average physical dps. (IE: fed tryn, average MF+ashe)
If you ever feel like you WANT them, buy as many Health Potion as you feel you need. Likewise with sight ward.
First part: Go with a Long Sword and Health Potion. Recall after killing wolves.
Second part: Buy your Cloth Armor and one Health Potion, go kill Blue. Travel down to kill golems again, then recall and buy madred's Razor.
Third part: Annihilate Red buff, and then either gank a lane or jungle some more. Usually gank a lane. Health potions are still important at this point, but they are at your discretion now. Continue to run around and gank lanes+farm empty lanes long after your early jungle adventures end.
-You can jungle MUCH faster if you use Demacian Standard and pull yourself through the wall with Dragon Strike
- Cataclysm can be interrupted early if you need it gone, just press R again
-You NEED to hit jungle mobs with Demacian Standard aoe to be effective.
