chalice, rod, armguard, codex, or rings are good first trip back items

if you get fed, I'd rush DC or Hourglass

if you don't, then continue building Athene's and maybe rylai's. think about void staff if enemies begin stacking MR or are ahead in levels and can rely on MR gain from runes or level up gains.
