Pendulum of Ages or Gem of Focus? Both should be good, but pendulum gives you all the stats that you need on your build in order to get max power, pen and cdr
4th item it's flex, I would choose either Last Gasp or Divine Ruin and if there's a lot of fighting Doom Orb would be a good choice, but replace Soul Reaver for Rod of Tahuti
Use Solar Blessing at level 1 for better clear
Tap each threat level to view Ra’s threats
Tap each synergy level to view Ra’s synergies
Standard Gem of Focus build with Book of Thoth (it can be built as 3rd item too)
Can also take Gem of Focus instead, but it will cost that extra 20% cdr
Doom Orb works great as an alternative of Charon's Coin with some extra mobility and damage, but replace rod with obsidian
Last item it's flex
Divine Ruin Your default antiheal item, not really good on Ra tbh, it's hard to proc it sometimes if you cant play aggressively
Warlock's Staff Crazy stats once it's fully stacked making you a little more tanky against harsh comps
Last Gasp Great pen item with similar stats with divine ruin but with a better passive for damage that works even better in late game
Magi's Cloak or Mantle of Discord defensive anti cc items that helps you to stay alive against hard cc comps

First off, I haven't tried a Jungle Ra but that sounds like a fun casual pick. However, I feel like I would definitely have to go Doom Orb if I did. I think that would feel better than a Book of Thoth tbh.
Also, I think you may be valuing Soul Reaver a bit too much on him. In my opinion, he doesn't really use the item all that well, usually setting up for big burst shots rather than multiple, frequent hits on several targets.
That also leads me to my other thought, which was Soul Gem. Have you ever tried the item on him? I personally think it compliments his kit and I like how the item plays, but I can understand you leaving it out. Was gonna suggest giving it a try if you haven't already and seeing what you think.
Ra jungle it's really fun and yea Doom Orb it's definitely a good option, I'm choosing Book of Thoth here just for the combination with Polynomicon and Soul Reaver, but I wouldn't discard another version with orb for sure
Soul Reaver it's an item that can be replaced, but I like that extra damage that it gives against tanks, however if you find yourself on a crazy matchup without them I would totally suggest replacing it with Last Gasp or Divine Ruin for example
And about Soul Gem I'm not a great fan of it, but it's passive is really useful for sure and the stats are not bad either. However, I personally think that it gets a little behind from other items on the build and the extra 10% cdr isn't really necessary on this builds, but it could work better on other type of build without pendulum for sure
You're overcapping % pen in all of your current builds. I would suggest dropping one of either Charon's or Ob Shard. If you like the early utility of Charon's, you might consider grabbing Doom Orb instead in that position.
