If you get this in order to sustain in lane, it means that you have to rush it and leave your tankiness behind, messing up your schedule. Nasus wins after a point cause he gets tanky while still doing dmg, not because he goes glass cannon and has good ratios. If your enemies are bad enough to let you sustain in lane while you are a glass cannon, then so be it but good laners that pick sth strong to counter you won't let you come near creeps after a trade that favors them. (Your first 2500 gold will be going to this item cause if you get it later, there's no point since your mana pool is sufficient and there other items that suit him better)
