Nobody goes fro Wriggles first? You're the jungler. Yoou're roaming around, so the Ward it provides can be put to good use, and it also keeps you up well with armor, damage and lifesteal. Since Skarner is best used as an off-tank, I'd think that should always be the first item in a jungle build. Building skarner pure tank is a bit of a waste, in that his only real CC is his ult. A tank is more than just a champ that can absorb damage, he needs CC's, disruption of some kind, which Skarner doesn't have. He can have them by getting items like Frozen Heart/Mallet, but that only allows him to slow one champ at a time, and chances are, the carries are ranged, either mages or ranged AD, aka you'll get kited. One way or another, you're not helping the team much.
