Do not build AP on volibear, ever. The stats are not even worth the active don't do it. There is no viability of AP on volibear at all his E is too long and you have to reach your enemies at melee range to even do anything at all, making you much of an easier target to not only kite but an easier kill. Also your R is at a long CD so don't bother relying on ulti (you need to use autos)

Second, treat E as a one point wonder, it is a waste of mana and the CD does not decrease while the mana consuption increases while you level it. After you max your W, max Q voli's bonus movement speed will be increased by 50% at max rank. He is better at chasing than escaping, which means escaping is his biggest problem because he only gets 15% movespeed bonus when not going towards enemy champion.

Third, swifties and deadmans are more than enough to catch kiting enemies (He's a jungler too so you may choose chilling smite upgrade if you want to secure easier kills). Build things to further increase your base movement speed rather than trying to stack your HP to the max (seriously, bite would be close to a 9 second CD if max CDR, not very spammable), so maybe you can run phantom dancer, static shiv as well (It proves to be much better than protobelt, even though crit is wasted), you can also use IBG or Frozen mallet (and new trinity force?).

Fourth, USE SWEEPERS AND DON'T MAKE YOURSELF PREDICTABLE. A common mistake from volibears in general, especially if you have lack of movement speed, don't try to just catch someone with more mobility than you outside of your Q.
