Issue is not really spellvamp.

Consider that in this game, items are not just the sum of their parts; Plenty of very stat/cost efficient items are barely, if ever, played.

By itself, this item is quite good, however i do feel it a bit lacking, ironically enough, specially for a jungler. It offers sustain for both mana and health and the killcreeps passive, both very nice, even fundamental, for jungling, after that you get AP/Ability bonuses, in AP and CDR, nice.

However, this doesn't allow you to survive all that much better when it comes to fighting and for the price the extra damage you get from the AP is not impressive either. Plus, it doesn't really help with one of the other key aspects of jungling: Moving around/ganking. I think that the stat this needed the most, was some extra MS.

As it stands, AP junglers are a bit shafted in that this and arguably all other "Spirit" items fall short of what you get from buying a "Lantern", when that's an option for your champion.
