I opt for 21/9/0; as an assassin, you really need to maximise your damage output. The only defensive items you should opt for IMO are Rylai's and Zhonya's. If you're finding yourself dying or taking too much damage in fights, make sure you're not simply jumping in at the wrong time. Kat's reliance on timing and positioning before unloading her combo cannot be overstated. Always remember that!

Kat excels at cleaning up at the end of fight with her epic resets, so make sure you take advantage of them. Only jump in once the majority of your enemies' CC has been exhausted, otherwise you're going to be punished quite severely :P
