Unless you can sneak in 40% critical chance, her dps will still scale better with AP than with AD.

Another thing is that a major advantage of AP build is that you can sneak in defense stats along with AP. Rylai's Crystal Scepter gives health, Abyssal Scepter gives MR, and Zhonya's Hourglass gives armor. At the same time these items provide you with 250 AP. I'd like to see what items the AD build could get that would provide the same level of protection along with 175 AD.
