AP Jax is only viable with AS items, which off the top of my head means Nashor's (which they buffed, and so i'm considering) Guinsoo's (which is probably still core and maybe even better) Malady (which is still absolute ****) and Triforce (which is probably pretty bad).
Hell, i'm even considering RoA -_-

If you wanna go AP now you should go for Rylai's since Empower CD reduces gives you a sure slow and Nashor's instead of Rageblade.
RoA: Well yeah, without more def, he's toast.
Abyssal/Wit's/GA...
But srsly... why should I even consider that?
AD is a way better option to go off-tank and his skill dmg output, even while being mostly magically, is still affected by roughly the same amount of AD and AP alike + you still need to autohit a lot.
Maybe AP/AS can compare to the dmg of AD but it will never match up to its beefiness, same goes for AD/AP hybrid.

I wud never go for Rylai's cause RoA = better.
I'm probably going to end up going sth like Merc Treads/Tabi > Rageblade > Warmogs > Atma's > Gunblade > FoN.

Rageblade should still definitely be core (well... I suppose there could be some discussion, but the item in general <3 It's just a fun item trololol). idk about other hybrid items. I do like the idea of atmogs if only because it's gonna be weird playing jax without the normal amount of massive health later in the game haha.

Jax feels really ****ty compared to before. Also, I think some of his animations are bugging.
Jax toplane is **** now imo.
Jungle is probaaably ok though.

? I don't experience any of these problems. I played jax solo top a couple of times and to me he felt incredibly op now because of his ult and dmg. But these games were normals, so probably just played vs noobs.

Ok, they somewhat tried to even AD and AP value on Jax, but AD has now a GREAT advantage.
The only thing that tempts you to buy AP is that Ulti, some good ratio and that 20%.
But without the 20% even that skill wouldnt bring me to buy more than there is on TF/Rageblade...
Nah, with or without more than thos two Items isnt just worth it.
The hybrid penetration runes seems feasible, though.
You should still do around 50% magic dmg only with AD, that is.
Jax became nothing more than an AD carry pick thats worse to counter.
