If you're focusing on auto attacks then get Malady instead of Lich Bane.

Iceborn Gauntlet is a better item for Taric than Frozen Mallet as well. (It gives him every stat he needs and a spellblade effect for when you get into 1v1s, like in top lane, and can spam your heal.)

If you're focusing on auto attacks I'd get Nashor's Tooth instead of Archangel's Staff.

If you get Iceborn Gauntlet, get Mercury Treads instead of Ninja Tabi. You should always be flexible though, of course. If you're facing, for example, a Tryndamere, you'll still want the Tabi.

There won't be any trouble keeping up with enemies as long as you have IBG/FM, since you have stuns. If worst comes to worst with being kited beyond the range of your stun, you can get Mobility or Swiftness. Don't forget about the Alacrity enchantment.

Remember that your burst is R, W, E, smack smack smack. R first since it increases the damage on your other abilities. E last so you have more time to smack them while they're stunned. (Assuming you didn't engage with your stun.)
