Each to their own, but I feel Cass needs all the defense she can get from runes since she's a medium-ranged mage. I always rush tears as a first item, followed by Rylai's and Sorc boots. Then I proceed to build Deathcap, upgrade tears into Archangel ( or Abyssal if you need mres ) and buy Hourglass and Void Staff as my last items. She stacks tears extremely fast, and can get the massive ap boost from upgrading it. There's no right Cass build, like there are for many other champs, since she benefits from so many items. But there's my build if you ever wanna try it out. :)

I personally feel cdr is a waste on Cass, since Twin Fang doesn't exactly benefit from it at all. The ticks on Noxious Blast doesn't tick faster with cdr either, so you're basically overriding the damage on your dot instead of it finishing, which could be a reduction in your dps. But again, to each their own.
