Trinity Force grants more power in duels rather than when you need to take enemies down quickly.

Hydra and Malmortius are 100% fine. Malmortius also grants good defense while giving great damage, making this item really worth.

Get Last Whisper instead of Cleaver. It's just better, because stacking armor reduction from Cleaver causes same problems as stacking Hemorrhage at targets.

Hydra is the greatest damage booster without any doubt.

So, considering you already have Hydra, Malmortius and LW, you can go for Frozen Heart / Randuin and depending on the match, either some damage item or tanky stuff. If you decide to get damage, the best thing i prefer is Youmuu, since its flat penetration scales greatly with LW and Apprehend's passive armor penetration and its active helps a lot for a champion like Darius. In extreme cases of enemy team being CC based, go for Mercurial Scimitar. If you rather think about defense item, Frozen Mallet or Guardian Angel are good choices.

If, for example, your full build is: some boots, Hydra, Malmortius, Last Whisper, Frozen Heart and Youmuu [doesn't need to be in that order of course], you already get overwhelming damage and good defenses.

Just be careful in teamfights. All you need to do is to survive the main burst from the enemy team without taking too much damage.
