Imo the IE/ER + RFC start is garbage on him, so after  trying different builds with him, here's the one that was the most successful for me, and I hope some of you will try it out:

- 1st item : IE, for obvious reasons. I don't think Jhin needs the cdr early on, and since I don't recommend in this particular build RFC, this item isn't a must buy (at least not a first item).

-2nd item : Sterak's gage, this item helped me so much for his weird and weak mid game where you can fight, as long as they can't fight back. With this, even if they fight back, you have enough tankiness to get to that sweet 4th shot. And the bonus ad yo u get from it is actually the as if yo uwere a juggernaut thanks to the innate.

-3rd item : Mortal reminder / LDR / ER, Do not underestimate mortal reminder, as in this season a lot of sustain champions which build various armor items are very popular. If you have a health stacking enemy frontliner, then LDR is better. However if by the time you finish sterak, they don't have any armor or you're too far ahead for it to matter, then essence reaver is better.

-4th item : Mercurial scimetar / bloodthirster/ RFC : extra ad is stil better than the bonus ad from RFC, and honestly I didn't feel the extra range made any difference in Jhin's case. But if you prefer the extra range and the safety it provides, suit yourself.

-5th item : Either one I mentioned that you didn't pick already.

You could argue that having sterak as a 2nd item means less ad, so less damage. However, it's more damage (unless you're in a very good spot already) if you can survive long enough to apply damage. I don't know if the order will make sense for anyone, but with him I'd rather have the safe option.

Of course don't forget boots! (swiftness).
