You have no reasons to cast Q until you have AD and crit, unless you're pushing a tower. "E" is a farming tool and 2 ranks are more than enough through the entire game. You need it for the debuff and for harassment mostly. Most carries run heal nowadays so is very helpful to have.

Ranking first lets you have your escape on a much lower cooldown and lets you have instagibbing burst damage by level 9. Tristana's total burst with a maxed "W", rank 1 ultimate and rank 1 "E" is 660 damage, no magic resist taken in account. Pretty scary, especially if you run ignite.
