I suggest skipping the Warmogs altogether and adding another cape. That's what I always do and I do pretty good with it. And I second the rethinking of Rod of Ages.

I would highly suggest using cleanse instead of heal. Also, why not use MR glyphs and dodge seals. They would do much more good for you especially with defensive spec. That leads me to my next point, I don't see the purpose in using ardor if AP doesn't do much for you, I realize you get AS boost too, but barely anything. I would suggest getting improved cleanse. Also, I would get the reduced minion damage which would make a huge impact on your early game. Another thing is, I do not see why you got the RoA, AP sucks on him besides his ulti. I think you're better off getting banshees than a RoA.

Basically my suggestions...
1. Use cleanse not heal
2. Redo the masteries, I would suggest a 0-21-9, refrain from getting ardor. Also, if you get 9 points in utility, i'd stick it in making the neutral buffs last longer.
3. Redo runes. You'll start off with around 40 MR with MR glyphs, plus if you get dodge seals, you will live longer due to your dodging and you will move faster due to nimbleness.
4. Rethink the Rod of Ages. Banshees veil, soul shroud, or even the new ancients item would be a better choice (if your teammates don't already have the ancients item)

I'll have to play around with it, only reason I don't get dodge is because of Shen's passive ability, if an enemy champ hit me it decreases the time until I can do a dual strike again, which hits hard. It has come in handy for me in most games, but I do understand how having dodge on a tank is a good idea so you can keep your health up.

I will give Cleanse a try though, I had been playing around with the idea of using it but wasn't too sure.

I think I might increase my MR though, but I haven't had too much trouble with magic users.

But thanks for the input Rooke!
