Do's and Don'ts of Shen

I LIKE SHEN. Shen is such a good champion. However, it is very difficult to understand what Items to build on him. He has so much versatility and isn't really weak anywhere. I also seem to have problems with identifying what I can do. For instance, my team is having a skirmish bot side and I'm about to take a turret, maybe two. Should I stay or should i go. So I thought it would be a great idea to list the do's and don'ts of Shen. I'll start

Do's

  1. Wave clear Item - titanic hydraitem 3748 , hextech protobeltitem 3152
  2. Teleport - I don't know about support shen, but in high elo I never see anybody taking another summoner spell.
  3. Health Items - For shen it is a necessity to have at least 2 items with health. HP allows for shen to be able to sustain more Don'ts
  4. Sunfire Cape - I know they buffed it recently but I tried it and it really is just a waste. Doesn't give too much wave clear compared to titanic or protobelt.
  5. Mana Items - with the exception of item 3078, there usually isn't any type of mana items to be taken or necessary.

Pls help me out. I need some more guidelines for shen

You for sure dont want to build protobelt. Titanic and sunfire is king on shen I would stay away from trinity unless your snowballing so hard. On heavy ap teams I suggest picking up a witts end that can do well vs them. Mostly on shen what you want is to push fast and hard and either pull the enemy team toward you or see if the enemy engages on your team. If neither then you just keep smacking at the turrets
