I wouldn't take Spirit Visage, on Shen its only real synergy is with Force of Nature. Cool down reduction might be ever so slightly helpful, but in most cases you'll just run yourself out of energy if you're carelessly spamming skills. Health and magic resist are always nice, but there are plenty of other items for that.

I personally favor Force of Nature on him, I tend to get Mercury's Treads for obvious reasons, and I used to run magic resist/lv marks and glyphs on him, giving me 36 more magic resist at level 18. I sometimes still run Aegis of the Legion and Guardian Angel. With the items I mentioned, I'd easily have over 200 magic resist. At which point I grab some health if I haven't already, with the only exception being if they have lots and lots of % damage.
