What do you usually max first? Most guides I see say to max E, but I find I really need the cooldown reduction from leveling up the Q, plus the increasing per level AD ratios, while the E just increases by a flat 30 damage and a very tiny amount of cooldown reduction per rank. I occasionally max W first if I really need the sustain, but never E. However, I'm sure there's got to be some reason other people max E first, which is why I'm confused ...

Also, when you say stick to recommended items for now, are you including void staff/deathcap/zhonyas?
