Warriors tabi always a must, good power and more valuable then ninja it's worth the extra gold to buy because Arachne has OP attack speed from ability and items.
Qin's sais gives 40 power and 15% attack speed good for early game so you could get your cocoon and poison ability on someone faster so you and your team can pick off a god easily
Frost bound gives 25 power good for stacking power early game and gives 300 health already giving you the most health then all the other gods in your match lol but then the passive is the main reason for the item, every BASIC ATTACK slows the god or minions movement speed by 30% and attack speed by 15% for 1.25 seconds(every basic attack on the enemy resets the slow and attack speed back to 1.25 seconds,for example if you're attacking a Thoth and he's slowed for 1.25 seconds and he dashes away and say you catch back up to him and his slow is on half a second .50 and you hit him again with a basic then it will reset the slows back to 1.25 seconds)
Winged blade gives another 300 health!! Also gives 20% cooldown which is good because Arachne doesn't have a getaway except ult away lol. 10% attack speed good for getting the abilities in easier and a 10% movement speed increase allowing her to run away or chase. Then the passive which is good for Arachne due to no get away it allows to reverse a slow that gets put on her only once every 30 seconds. If she is hit by a slow then her movement speed is increased by 20% for 4 seconds allowing her to runaway or easily catch someone!
Executioner gives 30 power and 25% attack speed and gives the passive of letting her basic attacks reduce protections by 12% stacking 3 times to shred those tanks!!
Runeforge gives 200 health giving you more health than the tanks in the game til everyone hits lvl 20 lol and additional 30 power but not only is this item only 200 gold!! But the passive is unique it allows gods around you to take 15% more damage from every source when slowed!!! you're frostbound slows and your spiders and if any of your teammates can slow they will take 15% more damage when the enemy gods are near you!!!!O****INGP
Warriors tabi always a must, good power and more valuable then ninja it's worth the extra gold to buy because Arachne has OP attack speed from ability and items.
Heart seeker built early because 1 it's cheap 2 gives good movement speed 3 gives extra damage after using ability which is good for Arachne after using broodlings to catch someone then spam cast ability 1 and 2 to just destroy anyone!
Jotunns wrath gives amazing cooldown and pen and if you haven't noticed there isn't frost bound in build because her cooldown will be almost max letting her broodlimgs be more valuable because they will be able to be used more to catch someone and use other 2 abilities and even have her ult as a good get away
Stone cutting sword for movement speed and to stack on power and take away PHYSICAL POWER from others(only takes away physical power from physical gods)
Qin (see build 1 item info)
Hydras lament for the final cooldown item to almost max it out which is amazing and gives power and a good passive much like heartseeker however it gives the next BASIC ATTACK 30% more damage and you have 8 seconds to hit whatever you're after which will be easy with your movement speed and abilities on low cooldown (Also a little passive hydra gives is extra 2.5 MP5 per 10% missing mana which is good because she has decent mana somewhat)

On your build 1, its generally not a good idea to rush qins. Reason being, its an expensive item that works better late game once you have other attack speed and pen online. Also early game, gods generally have smaller health pools, so an item like Ichaival will do more damage for less gold.
Qin's Sais is definitely still a good item on her, but Id pick it up later in the game.
Arachne has a built in slow and slow immunity on her Web. So she doesnt need frostbound or winged blade. Even though the bonus health is nice, generally speaking she does better with better dps items.
The Executioner is a great item on arachne, and because of her passive, you want to pick this up before qins.
Arachne is also a very strong 1v1 assassins. Possibly the best 1v1 assassin in the game. Having runeforge hammer is a teamfight item which arachne doesnt do much of. Your first build has a lot of health on it, but sadly all 3 of the passives arent being put to much use.
Youre build 2 is SOLID! I havent tried heartseaker on her yet, but it does look like youre missing % pen on her, and executioner is such a good item on her too. Id say drop the hydras, pick up The Executioner item 4, then get Stone Cutting Sword and Qin's Sais.
Skill wise, not much of a point in levelling your stun, same with the ult. Cocoon I would have 15,16 and 18,19, with ult levelled in between. Venomous Bite is a VERY good ability you do NOT want to max last!
Web should be leveled second cause of the slow duration and Cocoon last cause it is usually used after your 1 and 3 just to keep your enemy in place.
