Conquerer is very situational on Aatrox. If you aren't in matches vs majority melee/tanks(e.g. Volibear, Garen, Sej, etc), then it isn't worth no matter how much you want it to be. I've tested thoroughly what runes give the easiest output of damage, and the combination that always came out on top was Meteor combined with scorch.

To go a step further, as stated in more recent posts, the precision tree isn't all that great for Aatrox(aside from legend tenacity. love me some tenacity). But with Sorcery as your primary, you'll be able to swoop into fights easier with your ult, and more interestingly, find a buttload of AD steroids if you use celerity with the 2ndary Inspiration rune "Approaching Velocity". This rune is a hidden Gem. The speed boost from the fraction of time the enemy champ is knocked up will help chain knockups, the bonus goes up while someone is chained, and you'll approach teamfigts and skirmishes and lockdown allies way faster. As long as you're facing an Ally who's movement impaired or someone you've chained, you'll get that 15% MS that turns into AD with celerity
