Honestly, after next patch it might be worthwhile building Gladiator's Shield second item on him for an early power spike from the stats (I'm still not sold on the passive, but as Ravana is meant to be bullying his lane opponent it can't hurt).
Apart from that, I personally prefer Shogun's Kusari on him fourth item, after Breastplate. Now you need some health, so I'd get Winged Blade, or if it's needed Witchblade. After that you need some more magical protections, you're only just over 100 at the moment, and because you've got over 160 physical protections you can get Bulwark/Pestilence without too much worry (unless you aren't worried about magical damage). After its up to you what you trade your Shield for, I'd go for either Titan's Bane or Qin's Sais normally, or if you need more protections, Spirit Robe or Mantle of Discord is fine.
This is assuming you're playing him in solo, as he can work quite well in jungle now with the buff to his ult.
Sobek is fine in solo, but you have to keep in mind, he's not going to win lane, but if you get Chalice of Mana play it safe, then he doesn't lose it either.
And remember, you've picked him for the set-up, his damage is nice, especially in solo where you have the license to build him more aggressively, but his pluck is the reason for playing him there.
Also, don't forget his ult gives him mana regeneration while charging it, so don't be afraid to pop it to clear wave if you're out of Mana but don't want to back yet, it's not like you'll be using it for more than surviving ganks anyway.
Soul Eater is really underwhelming right now. None of the stats synergise with each other and while the passive seems nice, the only god that can kind of make use of it effectively is Erlang Shen because his passive let's him double proc it. I'd honestly say it's in contention for the title of "Worst Item in Smite Currently."
