How are you wasting passive stacks if you're using Riven the way she's supposed to be used (i.e. skill, auto, skill, auto, etc.) since AS only helps in decreasing time between auto-attacks, which is practically never an issue for her except with farming. Never got these AS builds. When I see them in-game, I laugh at them. Then I destroy them with my AD / CD build.
Thanks for your comment!
I was thinking perhaps Black Cleaver, as we already are building a bit of attack speed so we fully take advantage of it. At first I was thinking Infinity Edge, but I don't think any of her abilities crit so you would be relying on just your auto-attacks, which is fine, but I'm wondering if there are better choices for her. I'll do a bit of playtesting.
As I said, this guide is very much a work-in-progress, and will be changing often over the next few days and perhaps even weeks. Thanks again for your comment!
You mentioned that Ki Burst scaling better than other abilities was the reason you leveled it first. However, Broken Wings actually scales faster than Ki Burst due to the fact that the +dmg and +.6AD is applied 3 times in one cooldown instead of the once.
In your build you have under 500 AD even after the 20% increase from Blade of the Exile.
If we use 500 for your AD you get:
(110 + .6(500))*3 = 1230 DMG - Broken Wings
210 + 500 = 710 DMG - Ki Burst
For a true DPS number you would have to figure in cooldowns and in the 13 seconds you would be waiting for Broken Wings you would get 1.86 Ki Bursts which Does put it at 1318 DMG per 13 seconds.
Broken Wings = 95dps
Ki Burst = 101dps
If we were in an MMO and beating on a boss I would say go for Ki Burst. I personally plan on Maxing Broken Wings first because I would much rather have the extra DMG up front not be waiting 7-11 seconds to be able to use that second Ki Burst. That and most fights are not going to last long enough for me to get to that second Ki Burst.
I will probably try this build out when I get on later
