In jungle, you can play with 21/0/9 just fine, you shouldn't have any problems with HP after the first clear and if you start Machete+5 like you probably should, even the first clear you should be able to stay full hp. I'd reccomend getting more than 1 level in W for jungle Elise though, it really helps clearing small camps and it's also better for clearing creep waves, and in a straight up fight it's honestly not that much worse than max Q.

Also, I don't reeeally like Mres blues on jungle Elise, I like flat AP a bit better, it helps you jungle faster, which allows you take less damage in the jungle. For magic resist later Abyssal isn't actually half bad on Elise, as long as you have an AP middle (which is think you should for teamcomp reasons)

21/0/9 isn't too great on elise tbh. She doesn't scale that well from ability power. She scales better with magic penetration. I'd recommend going 9/21/0 if u need to be tanky or go 9/0/21 for the mobility. Also for runes, you are better off using armor seals and flat magic pen for the rest, movement speed quints if you 9/21/0. Another Option is flat armor seals, flat cdr blues and the rest flat magic pen with 9/0/21. This will give you 15% starting cdr which gives you faster clears and pretty much always assures that you can finish people off with the additional cdr inbetween forms.

In the early game and depending on the circumstances flat AP quints are going to be better than flat magic pen quints usually up to about level 11 by my estimates, it is also strictly better for clearing jungle and better for killing creep waves which is something you might or might not want to do. Movement speed quints do probably rival or slightly outdo flat AP quints as far as jungle clear goes, I don't think they are anywhere near as good for the first few skirmishes though.

flat AP blues vs. magic pen blues is a bit closer, but flat AP blues are still going to be a bit better early game for both fights and jungling, which I value more.

Even if you start 9/0/21 on jungle Elise I don't think you can afford to start machete+flask, which is usually the main selling point of this mastery setup, although maaaybe you could do it with some really really sick spiderling micro. Hard to tell. If you can then I suppose it is a viable way to spec.

I don't really see the point of going 9/21/0 on jungle Elise, you aren't going to build tanky and you shouldn't really tank things at all. Picking Elise really should be only if you for some weird reason want a heavy AP damage poke-y jungle. Given how well Elise can lane, you shouldn't have problems fitting her into either top or mid even if you firstpick her.

At all stages of the game Mpen is better on Elise. Her q in both forms (main damage source) ONLY scales off magicpen. By running flat AP blues you are only adding 8 damage on your W. Running ap quints only adds 12-13. It does not benefit any of your other abilities while magic penetration benefits her whole kit as well as scales better into mid-late game. And as far as 9/21/0 for jungle elise, You do this when you want to start boots or if you are going to be building as one of the team's main tank after sorc shoes/guise.

I do agree that elise makes a better laner than jungler, but magic pen is the way to go on her. Here is a guide from Arthelon(a very high elo top laner who played for mMe/Orb currently on meat playground):http://www.lolpro.com/guides/elise/436-elise-guide-ap-top-mid-by-arthelon

This will help you out in understanding why magic pen is better on elise if you don't quite get what i'm talking about.

Elise is an unreal jungler, on top of being my favorite champion.

I can't remember my exact setup for her, in lane I run mpen reds/quints and armor/mr yellows and blues, jungle I think I use ap quints instead. 9 in offense, some mix of the other two trees. I don't even think I start machete. I'll have to check my games over when I get back on my good pc.

In OGN the trend seems to be to build her sorcs+warmogs+shurelyas

Elise tends to have to get up close often and has no MR scaling with levels outside her ult, so running MR blues is not at all a bad idea. Even in lanes where you don't really need MR its worth it for the later teamfights/jungle ganks against many a champion. For quints if you are jungling I would go with AP or movement speed. Sure magic pen is slightly stronger in fights but it does not speed up your jungle or make a huge difference in ganks unless you get counter ganked.

As for picking Elise as a jungler: you pick her because you want incredibly potent ganks that are hard to ward against.

I feel this says a lot about Elise. Building HP and still having damage output so cray cray

Wait, what do you mean that Elise doesn't scale with AP? She has several ratios:
Her Q has 0.03% scaling per 1 AP in both forms,
her human W has 0.8 AP scaling, her spider form healing has 0.02 AP ratio (insignificant, I know, but still)
and most importantly, her spider form autoattack has 0.3 AP ratio (!!) and her spiderlings have 0.1 AP ratio. Add 0.05 AP ratio to her autoattack if you have the spellsword mastery.
So no, magic pen is nowhere near "always superior to AP on Elise"

Depends on the skill usage then I guess. AP superior for clearing with W mid I guess, MPen vastly better top when they're more likely to have MR and you'll rely on more harass before you can try to get a kill. In teamfights, do you auto a lot compared to the poke in teamfights?

Dis champ real dumb lol. Like Nid, but trades mobility for having a a stupid good stun and 2 %health scaling nukes that just obliterate everything.

Q first for jungle? I've been leveling W for the wolves/blue clear and it's like having an extra hp pot as well the aoe damage from spiders.

Really like her in the jungle. Her clear speed is incredible, she has a great toolkit for ganks and doesn't need an insane amount of items to do relevant damage. She feels powerful when she's ahead, and effective when she's behind which is something I like in junglers.

What are people doing with their Machete? Neither wriggles or spectral wraith seem any good. Upgrade to Ancient Golem or just sell your SS later.

I just leave it at SS. The regen is nice and not too expensive. I guess Spectral Wraith or Ancient Golem would be good later on, but not worth delaying Guise/Boots/etc over.

Spectral Wraith makes her just annihilate the jungle, but it feels like a bit of overkill. SS is mandatory but Ancient Golem is the upgrade I'd consider so you can get tenacity and Sorcs.

I open W on jungle Elise, let's you get good damage off if you start wolves. Spirit of the Spectral Wraith is pointless on Elise IMO, she doesn't need spell vamp but you can skip Rylais because of Ancient Golem. I do max Q first for better ganks, but W first clears wolves + blue faster
