Nothing outside of CDR has synergy with his true damage though. Penetration is suggested because all of his ratios are subpar and his bases are quite high. Also, there's only 3 pen items and 2 of them are already core in a mage's build (Sorcs and Void Staff) so the only item Vel really goes out of his way to grab is Liandry's which does have synergy with his AoE, 2 CCs to double the passive damage and long range to apply it with.
