There is little to no difference in Caster Varus and ADC Varus.

You are gonna need to rely on your spells early on since Varus has no real incentive to Auto in small skirmishes and siegues, hence the use of Muramana and Youmuu but later on, you actually wanna have a way of mantaining mana pool and have Crit chance for larger fights, especially against Assassins that dive for you and Tanks who zone you. That's why Reaver and then going for Runaan take both versions of Varus and make it something entirely different.

Your last item should be something between a Lord Dominik or an Infinity Edge, regarding how many enemies can build armor and how much armor do they have. There is no real incentive right now for Marksman to build any defensive items besides Lifesteal and Varus can potentially never actually use Lifesteal since he doesn't have to actually Auto unless he has to fight a heavy dive comp.
