I like a little of both. Kind of like what Sagee said I typically have a core item build of D's Blade, Merc Treads, Triforce and Guinsoos. I typically don't go for Gunblade at that point but instead play it according to the situation. Those only add about 70 AD but Hiten will do the rest for you.

If I need some sort of defensive item I'll start to get those next but if things are going ok and survivability isn't an issue I might start with a Zeal and move on up to Phantom Dancer. Maybe a Stark's if you want to add to the self healing.
