Well Zeagoth..... I don't know how to put this lightly...but you're retarded. Bio-Arcane Barrage has a shitty ratio....because the damage is based on the target's max HP. If it had, say, a .8 ratio, with Madred's Bloodrazor you would be one shotting EVERYTHING. If you build Kog'Maw AP you can get at least an extra 2% on Bio-Arcane Barrage, which is, in reality, a ton. AD Kog'Maw is stupid because he is incredibly squishy and has way too short range. His pitiful squish and range is made up for by the huge ranges on his Void Ooze and Living Artillery, which can be quite powerful with enough AP, which will also make your Bio-Arcane Barrage better, it'll do more damage then straight AD at least. So, pretty much, even though his Living Artillery has a better AD ratio than AP, AP is better if you factor in everything, not just straight damage, since it makes Bio-Arcane Barrage better, makes Void Ooze better, and while Living Artillery has less damage from the ratio, you will be doing more damage overall, because you won't be dead all time, because you're using powerful skills with long ranges, instad of just a crappy autoattack at short short range
