Tanky Powerhouse Jungler Build

If you read the guide writeup, the whole idea of the build was based off of Trans =P It's not what people would normally build on him (e.g. you'll never see it in higher level play), but the writer makes his opinion on this clear, that it's something that worked for him.

To answer your question, yes, the build is missing pen, and yes, Titan's Bane is the standard go-to, but note he has it in alternative item options. Another option should be Brawler's Beat Stick, if he doesn't want to get TB, and focus solely on squishy gods or when facing a generally squishy team.

@mariozplaze (if you ever come back), I'm just going off your writeup, so I understand where your thinking is on the build, and that's great, but just know that, technically, Transcendence's high power isn't providing the offensive "oomph" you think it is, at least not across the board. Honestly, I think the mana that it provides is the most functional part of the item, since he can be a bit mana-hungry early, and getting this item 2nd will solve those needs. However, unless he's finishing the minions himself (meaning you're taking the actual kills from the Solo or Mid), it's going to be a somewhat slower process just farming jungle kills.

Taking your basic build example, you have 248 power. Against a squishy god @ level 20 ( Agni w/ 63 inherent physical protection), you deal 690 damage on all hits of Berzerker Barrage. Against a tankier god (233 physical protection), 330 da mage.

If you do what I would consider a more traditional-looking build, I subbed out Trans for Shifter's Shield, and Titan's Bane for Breastplate of Valor for a total of 230 power. That same Berzerker does 770 against that squishy, 415 damage against the tank...AND you'll deal a lot more damage against objectives.

But hey, if this works for you, cool.
