Rhaast is a tanky diver / Tank killer and Shadow Assassin is actually an assassin.

Rhaast wants to be tanky but still do enough damage to kill both tanks and squishies hence titanic which does both.

SA wants to get in, erase a high priority squishy, and get out, which would make ravenous hydra a better choice for the AD and the AD scaling.

Kayn's build and playstyle should change based on what form you're going. Titanic and Cleaver have some sick synergy, and work great when they're your only damage items in a tank build.

Note: Tested in Cleaver + Titanic in a Rhaast tank build in practice, DPS was around 600 with just basic skills, and up to around 900 with items + skills, though the practice dummy has 10k hp and only 100 in each defense so that probably added a lot of damage. Didn't really feel the lack of AS with AA resets and skill chaining. Just shy of 4k health, 200 in both defenses, and 542 MS with shadow step and deadman's maxed. Seemed like a really solid diver, but I'll have to put it through an actual game to say for sure.
