Normal Jungle Start.
Last items you can swap out for whatever you want. If you're looking to be a little more tanky you can grab a Spirit Robe or Mantle. Bloodforge is a good power spike and you get the shield if you kill an enemy which helps if you're in a bind and don't have an escape. It may provide you with a little more time for Trickster Spirit (Ability 3) to come off of cooldown.

Most squishy Gods w/ little to no escape usually get 1/2 shot late game by a Da Ji.
Cleanses and CC immunity in natural abilities make Da Ji's ult almost useless.
When Da Ji pulls w/ ult Nox can silence them out of all escapes as well as Shadow Lock (Ability 1) them in place for 2 seconds. Aphro can use her BackOff (Ability 2) as soon as Da Ji teleports to an enemy to give her help in bursting down a target as well as keeping her healed and alive to leave. Ares and The Morrigan are good to help burn beads for her Ultimate.
