^ You need as much damage as you can get as with other carries. Besides, take armor/mres masteries, armor/level seals and mres/level glyphs and if your support is any good and rushes aegis right after boots and some gold/10 items, you can reach 111 armor/75 mres with 0 defense items which is nothing to laugh at on a long range carry.

Second PD is needed mostly for movement speed (you will never be tanky unless you are willing to sacrifice tons of damage output anyway, so its best to rely on range+move speed for defense) and huge critical chance increase (1 PD + IE + mastery = 59% crit, 2x PD + IE + mastery = 89% crit). Besides, PD increases your dps drastically which makes you heal insanely from life steal, especially if your support builds starks after aegis.

tl,dr = best final build for Tristana from my experience is IE, 2x PD, bloodthirster, zerkers and black cleaver with support equipped with aegis and starks.
