Athena Build

Athena Jungle Full Build

Notes You can replace Stone of Binding with Divine Ruin if you really need anti-heal.

Sell boots for Rod of Tahuti

This is my favorite go-to guardian jungle build and I think it works fantastic for Athena Jungle. I have had no bad games with it today the buff on her 2 making her taunt a damaging ability really puts her over the top.

This build gives you cooldown, penetration, movement speed, power, MP5, HP5, Sustain, and a splash of protections.

Notes Can't go wrong with these.

I usually just go beads and aegis because it's safer but if you prefer blink that's a good option as well.
