Time to calculate it...

Of course, I'm not going all in all the time. Like most people, I mostly farm. Say I can have 30 stacks on my BT (I believe this shouldn't be too hard, less than 3 minutes properly last-hitting). That's 90 attack damage. Say, that the enemy laner has 100 armor, and that I have 18 armor penetration from runes and masteries, plus 10% from masteries. That means 73.2 effective armor. Damage reduction is 42.26%. Now, if I have a Last Whisper, I have 18 armor penetration and 46% armor penetration. That means 27.39% damage reduction. 90*0.4226=38.034. 90-38.034=51.966 effective attack damage. That's already more than Last Whisper. 40*0.2739=10.956. 40-10.956=29.044. You deal 166% more damage with a Bloodthirster than with a Last Whisper if you don't count in base damage and base attack damage. Base damage gets boosted from 57.74 per 100 damage to 72.61, that means 15% from your base damage more from Last Whisper. Say that Last Whisper is always 100%. This means that your base damage counts for 85% when taking Bloodthirster, while bonus damage counts for 166%.

Bloodthirster > Last Whisper.
