the other thing to remember is that dammage from sheen does not crit. That means at level 18 it's worth a whopping 100dmg. With 250% crits and a high crit chance your better off with a BF sword. Also that makes your melee attacks better which makes farming super easy with GP late game.

As for Bloodthirstier or Trinity force. Trinity is i think a good buy as Zeal and Phage are good on him. GP builds tend to be defense light and the extra HP and Movement speed Trinity force give are a nice little bonus. Also later in the game you really need to start getting into meele. Parrrley will only do so much, i parrrley when a team battle starts, wait a few sec for everyone to pick their targets then run in while no one is paying attention to me. With all the AD and Crit chance GP his meele attack become quite dangerous and they drop healing by 50%. One thing i like to do is get Phage and Zeal and then either build a trinity force if we are doing well or build a phantom dancer and Frozen mallet if i need a bit more defense.

As for Bloodthirster, i personally think Atmas Impaler is better on him. With IE that 18% crit will really pump up your damage and the Armour is nice as GP gets few defensive items. Of course you could always get both but I don't think you will notice the life vamp as much as you would on other champs.
