How much damage do I build on Vi?

I've reattempted to learn jungle again, and have had minor success with , generally just building a cinderhulk and black cleaver into full tank. I noticed though that as games get longer I don't do enough damage, and I'm not exactly tanky either. I guess my job isn't to be the damage, especially if there are no other tanks on the team but me, but what is the usual amount of damage one builds on Vi? I assume I don't get the warrior enchantment, as Vi scales well with health, and I think trinity force and black cleaver are a little too expensive to be put into the same build, especially with a repeating phage item anyway.

I believe what you do with Vi is you build a damage item (or 2 if you get fed) and then go tank after that. Fighter-ish but enough survivability to stay alive.

Warrior is nice for the early presence, you're quite supposed to fall off lategame. If you're the only tank, go for full tank except BC, either I'd suggest Warrior -> try to snowball -> only bruiser items, a Randuin or Spirit maybe, and defensive boots.

item 3717 item 3044 item 3155 item 3110 item 3102 item 3111 Upgrade phage into either cleaver (if even or behind) or Tri-force (if ahead) Upgrade hexdrinker to Maw when you start to feel your damage falling off.

Also if they lack ap threats, or their AP threat is single target, or if they have multiple true damage threats, you can swap Banshees veil for a warmogs.

you should be looking to get one maybe two damage items, i would get black cleaver and if you are ahead get triforce, otherwise go tank and get 405 cdr. vi does pretty good damage with her w so you should be fine!

If you really want to be an off-tank, ur runes must change then.

9x armor scaling seals

2x flat armor quints

1x ad quint

9x scaling mr glyphs

9x ad marks

Ur build should be this: item 3707 item 3071 item 3156 item 3143 item 3102 item 3111

Or item 3709 item 3143 item 3102 item 3111 item 3156 item 3071

Tri is good when u r ahead, otherwise, take bc instead.

Youll have around 3.4-4k hp. Near to 200 arnor and mr and u will be a threat if left alone.

2 damage items at most. Warrior enchant + Triforce OR Botrk (not both). Anything more and you'll end up way too squishy to teamfight later on.

Only build the Tri/BotrK if you're doing well early game (1-2 kills minimum). Otherwise you should just skip it and go for frozen heart or warmogs or something.
