Decision making question

Legitimate question. When my laners are dieing to an early game pressure jungler/ekko (they both started roaming, my mid laner got first and second blooded iirc), I tend to farm as fast as I can because to me- that's an impossible lane to gank. A level five shyvanna and five ekko against a level eight gangplank. So I did, he died I barely made it out. Meanwhile bot is basically camped by the lee sin/ekko and it repeatedly gets 4-manned. They start complaining that I'm not coming, but they are 0/2 or 0/3 at this point and I don't really want to go feed gold. Should I just keep power farming (I play hyper carries) or should I go attempt to help a situation that, to me, seems lost beyond control? I really need to know. My teammates always get frustrated with this choice.

tl:dr- when your lanes die a lot as jungler, should you try to gank? You are a hypercarry with good camp clear speed.

Edit: This is all over the place. Lemme clarify. Mid lane got dunked twice to enemy mid and enemy jungle, putting them ahead of both of us respectively. The mid then roamed and nuked bot a few times, enemy jung as well. I had barely finished my first clear. Should I have attempted to gank at this point with all my lanes having been destroyed?

If you're playing a hyper carry in the jungle, and are unable to get you or your lanes fed, you've already pretty much taken yourself out of the game. If you see that your laners are going to have tough lanes, I would not pick a hyper carry to jungle with in the first place. If you're an early pick, then you should ALSO pick a more utility/tank jungler who can be relevant through the entire game.

Will keep that in mind. Thank you good friend ^.^.

If you manage to get back to this, I'm looking into playing Irelia. I was wondering what all to buy on her. So far I know Trinity (or really, any sheen build out) and Spirit Visage are key. After that, I aim on counter building to maintain damage/durability mixture. Did a Hexa just now that made me want to pick her up. I think my build was :::Trin, Sunfire, Wit's, building into Randuins:::.
