No, I genuinely mean that the only way Soraka would scale properly on her survivability, other than through skill, is through AP. It was a poor choice of words to mention items in general, as AP almost exclusively comes from items, but the core paradigm to Soraka's survivability is that it doesn't work so well with "traditional" tankiness, which would include building tanky items. Auras and actives would certainly help, though the auras would not work as clutch life-savers, nor would the actives ensure constant survivability.
