Mana and AP are completely wasted, the crit and AS she doesn't get much out of. Movement speed isn't as attractive on her as with other champs as her mobility is already rather good. That leaves AD and health and the unique passives.

Basically about half the item is meh for Riven. The other half provides some very attractive benefits. It's not a bad item, but for it's price you should only consider this late game. During early to mid to early late, there are much better options.
