I usually go Rylai>Warmog>Atma>Lichbane>Deathcap. Armor pen marks and quints. Harass like crazy early game and win your lane before level 4. Continue to press that advantage once you hit 6. AFK farm top lane until your lane opponent gives up and roams. Come late game, she has close to 4k HP, traps that slow, javelins that slow, swipes and pounces that slow, a bite that scales off of AD *and* missing health, and quite a bit of armor/magic resist (depending on runes).

This is for a solo top Nidalee, and is most effective against the bruisy melee champs that underestimate your early game poke (+30 ranged armor pen at level 1). You don't *really* need to build a lot of AP on her because all of her cougar abilities have solid base damage. Her javelins can be used as a long-range gap-closer too (when you have rylai's) to land another cougar combo.
