General Explanation Top
Taka is amazing in killing off enemies of high threat to your team easily and swiftly, and most importantly, quietly. This build focuses on dishing out maximum pain to your enemies and ensuring a swift death at your hand.
I'll be explaining how this build works item by item for you to fully understand the capabilities of this build.
P.S: Read the general strategy section at the bottom to learn how to maximise your damage and kills.
First Items Top
The first items are crucial to your early game. Choosing between the two builds are easy, just choose which you feel is best. Meaning, if you are confident in swift farming, go for the weapon blade, but if you want to ensure a good health sustain, go for Ironguard. The ironguard also prevents your fellow jungler from stealing too much farm from you. Just remember Potions!
Tension Bow Top
The tension bow is crucial for the early game. It helps to deal additional damage to your fleeing enemies. At the point you get tension bow, you probably will not be able to burst them down just as easily yet. So ensure to keep potions in your inventory at all times. Keep your health up and teleport if needed. As you're building this item, I recommend you buy boots along the way to escape easily. Remember, you're the ultimate ninja, so hide when necessary.
Aftershock Top
This item will be the coupe-de-etat (sorry if i got that wrong XD) to your build. Coupled with your tension bow, the enemies will not know of what to be afraid of. This will hold off their protective gear. If they go for a crucible, your aftershock will handle 50% of their health easily. This will ensure your damage will stay at par with their health at all times. As you're building this, you can get your clockwork on the way, but most of the time, the void battery is sufficient to whet my crystal appetite.
Shiversteel (Or Crucible) Top
Whenever it comes to protection, I always go for health, which is something that can be regenerated. With Taka's House Kamuha, it is easily recoverable. The main difference between Shiversteel and Crucible is their Active Skills. Get Shiversteel if you're owning their ***es already and you want to keep then close to your switchblades. Get Crucible if you're in trouble and you need another means of escape.
Shatterglass (Or Sorrowblade) Top
As this is a hybrid build, your ability to switch damage methods should be easy. These items are a last el-finito item to stay on top of your foes. Pretty self-explanatory, if they get armor to protect themselves from Tension bow, get Shatterglass. If they get Aegis to protect themselves from your Aftershock, get Sorrowblade.
With this, your build is complete! Now, time for tips and tricks to maximise torture for your enemies.
General Strategies Top
This chapter will be filled with random tricks I found out to be useful when I play as Taka and use this build.
1. After acquiring the Aftershock and Clockwork, you can spam abilities, therefore, able to maximise the damage output. For example, using Kaku then reappearing to attack your enemies allow you to repeat Aftershock's passive. This also breaks your enemies' targetting and allows you to escape if needed.
2. Ensure you use one basic attack after each skill to drive your opponent's health down quickly using Aftershock's passive.
3. Put scout traps nearby the minion camps beside the jungle shop. This allows you to use X-retsu through the wall and attack your opponents from the bush.
4. Stay hidden. Do NOT let your opponent keep you in a long-term fight.
5. If you are solo jungling and the enemies do an invade, use kaku to avoid them and waste their time. Ensure to steal their camps while they do oyours, to ensure your levels are on par.
6. Levels are important, achieving your ultimate skill before anyone else ensure you can pin them down early and keep up the pressure on them.
