Let Darius heal a small amount of hp from jungle creeps

You could even do it for just large and epic jungle creeps. I just want that little bit of oomph for my beginning, because I've been trying to make Darius jungle work since I first started playing at the beginning of Season 4. Right now, I feel like he's pretty decent in the jungle. item 3706 gives him a little more CC for ganks, and he excels at counter ganking because in the 2v2 or 3v3 fights he becomes a monster. Additionally, when he gets invaded he's actually being given his only sustain, and on top of him being scary as hell with his passive it means people can't really invade you 1v1.

But right now he has pretty mediocre damage and now sustain to back it up. Before the rework in Season 5, his bleed did more damage, and his W slowed monsters' attack speed so he could take less damage and he had decent AoE with his q blade and bleed.

However, he's still really weak early on, so I was thinking that maybe he could get a little damage or sustain towards jungle creeps only. Something like letting his passive's Bloodlust (5 stacks) have a mini-activation for jungle creeps. Or maybe letting his Q hitting a jungle creep with 5 stacks get the heal it normal has for champions.

In fact I feel like if 5 bleed allowed him to heal off jungle creeps, or even only large jungle creeps, with his Q he wouldn't be over the top, but still in a better spot in terms of the jungle. And if Rumble is getting his Q damage on jungle creeps back to normal, why not give Darius a little mini nudge on his sustain or damage in the jungle.

I'm pretty sure that they already heal you passively, and that there's a mastery for that.
