I find it nice as a late-game item on some champs anyway, particularly Jinx, as you basically can use Fishbones for free.

I do think the build-path adjustment would help a lot and simply adding Forbidden Idol to it's build-path would make a lot of sense. Probably just Vamp Scepter + Forbidden Idol + Pickaxe + enough gold to make it cost roughly the same. Then there'd be nothing wrong with building an Idol(or at least a single fairie charm early) to aid in it's completion when it came time. I'd probably see it as a second or third item-buy at that point instead of 5th or 6th now and it's basically just a "win more" item.
