In solo queue build him offtank/anti-carry, focusing on killing enemies. With friends build him tanky dps or tanky. I don't build aura Jarvan. I don't think it's all that great, honestly. You don't init well with aura Jarv, since you'll be hitting them like a wet noodle once you're in there. Experiment with Jarvan. He's not the easiest to get a build down for, but he is very flexible. I agree with you on Triforce, though. I only built it when he first came out. Nowadays I'm all about FM for teamfight utility and the only big HP item on him that really rocks.

Solid tanky build: Doran's into HoG into Aegis into FM, then buy appropriate resistances(prolly want an Atma's at some point)

Solid offtank build: Doran's into either Brut, Phage or Hexdrinker. I love all of those three items on offtank J4 and they can be combined to form a monstrous mid-game Jarvan.

My build currently: Doran's into Brut into Hex into FM, situational.

I only build one Doran's because of item space. It's more of a preference. Two Doran's is great on him if you can stomache giving up the space.
