I'm not sure what riot was thinking when they made the suggested items for galio, but here are a few tips: you should NOT buy mercury's treads, abyssal scepter, or twin shadows. you SHOULD buy sorceror's shoes, rod of ages, and liandry's torment. other than that the items are fine. athene's is essential because he constantly burns mana, visage is good to buff his w and passive, veil is useful if your enemies are all ap, zhonya is good if the enemies have a lot of ad but you don't want to build something tanky like sunfire or randuin, and rabadon is the obvious choice if you're surviving fine but just need some more damage.
