I get carried away sometimes. My primary objective was to change the layout of the jungle to diversify builds across the river - but then I wanted to add more objectives to the river; then I had space for more objectives in the lane; then I decided to make all the smite buffs scale better, rather than only gromp being good late game; then I decided to give scuttle a smite buff; then... etc.

Anyway, the current goal of the jungle items is:
 * Poacher's - Sustain/Clearing/Protection (AOE damage, healing and OI GET OFF MY BUFF!)
 * Ranger's - Tracking/Objectives (weakest "smite", but a lot of utility in the item)
 * Skirmisher's - Invading (both their jungle and their jungler; combines existing poachers and skirmishers)
 * Stalker's - Ganking (no changes to this one)
