Mathmatically, you may max Q first as you want without considering whether it has AD scaling or not. Without cooldown reduction, any skill with AD scaling has a fixed amount of AD that comes from the scaling. Since skills other than Q have little cooldown reduction and poor basic damage, you don't get much benefit from upgrading them. You still want to upgrade Q first to maximize her damage in the early game.
