I have a burning hate for Trinity Force as of recently now that I have some knowledge of the game's mechanics >_< (only increases with base damage)
Personally I'd rather build straight AD (BT, Blackcleaver, Youmuu) with Frozen Mallet en Guardian Angel for my defensive options and just keep my eyes open for anything that's thrown at me.

While it does so, imagine getting 150 extra damage every 2 seconds, it's still great damage aswell as the 30AD attackspeed crit, health and slow on target.
The problem with going Tanky DPS first is, that you really need that farm or you are useless for quite some time. She doesn't really have any kind of tanky DPS traits, other chars like Wukong or Irelia or Xin have. Her shield is barely noticable as it is right now ( gets quite okay with loads of AD though ).
Tri Force is nice of course, but you need to pefectly get your Q->Attack->Q->Attack->Q->Attack->W->Attack->E->Attack combo out to really get that damage down. When people mastered her this will be devastating, but right now it feels more like it's going like this: QQQ->Attack->WE->Attack-> Pop ulti and try to get that windslash out.
Also about boots. Ionian Boots are kind of wasted on her. Her Cooldowns are quite low as it is. Her Ulti only goes with round about 30 seconds, when you got your Yomus, The other skills stop at 7 Seconds + Yomus and maybe CD Runes. Only her Q is fixed at 12 seconds but the CD starts after the first activation. So you really only have like 6 Seconds CD after activating it 3 times + Yomus + runes.
Boots should be situational. Getting harrased a lot by that Ashe? Ninja Tabi. Annie is getting annoying with her Q? Merc Threads. No one is really annoying and you'd like to roam and gank a bit? Mobility! Ganking is not a real option right now, but your doing fine? Greavers!
What else do we have? Well, she scales fairly well. .6 at Q, 1.0 at W and E and 0.8-1.8 at ulti. So AD is of course our #1 choice.
But even though AD is so important I feel because of her squishienss the start is very situational.
I start with Dorans Blade. If AP gets problematic I go into Merc Threads and Hexdrinker. If AD gets problematig I go Ninja Tabi and Wrigglers. If the match is just going afwul it might be good to get flad Health. Frozen Mallet comes in mind. Getting Warmogs + Atmas leaves you way to weak for a very long time. Her skills aren't as strong without Bonus AD as for example Garens are.
After all she plays a bit like Pantheon being and AD nuke. Late Game Items are Black Cleaver, BT and Infinity Edge. Also consider buying Cloak and Dagger! Now that it's 35 tenacity it might be awesome.
Does her Q apply on hit effects? I haven't tried that out.

If I were the rain that binds together the earth and the sky, whom in all eternity will never mingle, would I be able to bind to hearts together?

Her cool downs might already be low but it seems the best reason to use your abilities is to proc your passive, in which case the cd reduction is good because it leaves you with less time to just AA. I was playing a custom bot game for a bit of practice on her Q>hit>Q>hit>Q>hit and I realized with BT,BC,mallet, and atamas that my AAs with my passive proced were doing the same as my Q (which was kinda sad).
It could be she is ment to get some more as? I mean it seems the only reason we use her abilities at all is for the passive proc. So as long as we don't stack it past 3, just spaming her abilities for the proc is the same as Q>hit>Qhit>Q>hit, just in a different way. With BC and maybe phantoms she should have enough AS to not over stack the passive if you need to use a clutch W or something after your initial Q spam.
This is what ive had the most luck with so far
Dorans blade
Dorans blade+boots
Dorans blade+lvl 2 boots
BT
BT
Survive item, usually hex drinker
Her early game is just so weak and the 3 dorans really make up for this, by your first time back youll have
+20 AD
6% life steal
+200 health
lvl 1 boots

I'm totally lost... can't find a way to build this chick, yet I <3 her, I hope they'll fix her animations in next patch (you know W being usless stunning you aswell and ult taing like 2 seconds from activation till you're able to use the wave)
Also what should i max 1st? Q or W and why?
