Tank Ekko is still fine and arguably the easiest and safest way to go.

Cinderhulk > Frozen Heart > Spirit's Visage + 10% CDR from runes and masteries is what I usually run. This way I get 40% CDR which works wonders on him, and get the 20% increased ulti healing from the Visage. Other items are situational and you're free to choose, I sometimes throw in a Zhonya as it gives a decent amount of AP for my heal and shield, as well as 50 armor and a very useful active. I've been trying Dead Man's Plate lately and I am satisfied with it, but I'm not sure when to build it. New Warmog's also really good if you can exceed 3000 maximum HP, it basically allows you to stay around without backing EVER.

AP Ekko is also good -- it snowballs harder but he's also much easier to fuck up with late game, as getting some HP back later in the game won't mean much in most of the cases, as you'll just get killed again.

Runeglaive > Morellonomicom > + 10% CDR from runes and masteries to cap CDR, then I usually get Zhonya's asap. Luden's Echo ain't bad but I don't find it so important over other stuff. I also build Abyssal Scepter if I need MR. Deathcap's good but not mandatory in my opinion. I get it sometimes, sometimes not.

I also really like (but that might just be me) Rod of Ages on Ekko, but I usually build it in lane, as picking it up as a jungler is kinda harder as it will take time to finish, and finishing a RoA too late is never a good idea. If you want to try it out, however, I suggest building it before finishing your jungle upgrade. When I take RoA on jungle Ekko I upgrade my smite, build RoA, and then finish the jungle item. A good thing is that it actually goes well with the Cinderhulk build too. When building RoA on AP Ekko, switch Sorcerer's Boots for Ionian's Boots (as it will replace Morello, so you'll need CDR form elsewhere).

I have no idea nor I have ever seen an on-hit Sated Devourer Ekko, but I'd assume it wouldn't be too good for the sole reason that his passive has an internal cooldown of three seconds. However he has good sticking power, so perhaps with a Devourer + Nashor's + Botrk into tank build he might pack quite the punch, I don't know. Try it out yourself and let me know :p
