User blog comment:StrategicMagic/Vayne - Carry? Yes. AD? No./@comment-5419795-20120819031405/@comment-5419795-20120819222806

What active abilities? How about her Q which increases the damage of her next attack, which scales very stongly with AD? Her ult, which increases her DPS further? Her ridiculous stun/AD scaling physical damage nuke which also increases the speed at which she procs her W? It might be more expensive, but building AD is magnitudes more useful than an AS/on-hit build. Besides, if you're decent, once you get a few AD items you can farm like crazy and get a few kills. That's jst how carries work.
