I'd disagree on your points about Taric. In a teamfight, as a tanky character, he should be in the thick of things, trying to get the enemy team's attention with all his auras and heals. Autoattacking in those situations is, in my experience, guaranteed. I like to give him a late-game Guinsoo's Rageblade to amp up his heal, cut its cooldown faster, and utilize that passive to ensure that he never runs out of mana at a bad moment. Granted, I don't always get to do that, but if I'm getting luxury items anyways....
