^ Sure, AP has a 20% ratio to target and splash on E, but AD is 100% to target and 20-40% to splash radius (physical instead of magical). Even though AD is twice as expensive to itemize for as AP, AD still comes out ahead on E in terms of damage output when it comes to hitting the primary target.

The only place where AP actually get ahead is on her Q, which it's basically twice as cost-effective for the same damage. But it's not a "spammable" nuke, since even at max CDR we're talking a 5-second recycle time, here.

Kayle needs better AP ratios in order for hybrid and AP builds to compete. Something like 20->30% on E and and 100-120% on Q would go a long way to make those abilities more attractive for an AP setup, not to mention some attention to her W.
