Given the nature of his W and his ultimate, its hard to ignore magic penetration mixed in with tankiness. I personally would suggest Liandry's and Abyssal to tank up and make full use of his base damage output. I'm sure these two items, mixed in with Spirit Visage, will get you through most games.

mPen, Health, MR, and a tad of HP. Given his initiating abilities, I might even suggest going for continue dmg and tank mix, perhaps Rylais or WoA. Played properly and in coordination with the team, he has better ganks, initiating, burst, and follow through capabilities of a Malphite.

And just like a Malphite, you need to balance out Tankiness and Damage depending on your team's composition as well as the opponents'.
