it may seem like he doesnt deal alot of sustained damage, but thats not really the case shen , hes got nice bursts , and is extremely hard for someone to escape from. with a ryalis, randuins , and your taunt you should be able to lock someone down untill they are dead , all the while your dealing damage via vorpal blade , sunfire cape , maybe a thornmail , and ki strikes , and taking very little damage yourself.

items are situational. merc treads and sunfire would be my core with him though. randuins, thornmail for vs ad. FoN for very heavy ap teams. aegis is good for early game and gives well rounded stats. guardian angel is good for that too. ryalis scepter is good on him, gives hp , some ap to boost his sheilds , and a slow for his vorpal blade. abyssal scepter is also a decent choice. you dont need damage items to deal damage with him.
