If you start with a budget of 2235g, that's only 585g left after the B.F. Sword, enough to upgrade your tier 1 boots into Berserker's. AD loses on-hit damage instantly: +45 is more than +35 from Rageblade, but the additional AP adds anywhere from 20-37 extra magical damage to Righteous Fury. Going to the numbers, at level 9 with maxed E:


 * AD build: 1.11 attacks/sec with 126/60 physical/magical for roughly 207 DPS.


 * Hybrid build: 0.98 - 1.15 attack/sec with 116/80-97 phys/mag for roughly 192-245 DPS.

Note that hybrid does 18% more DPS at full speed. I consider this to be massive. It is slightly behind at one stack (E only), matches at two stacks (Q + E), and accelerates pretty rapdily thereafter. This also doesn't account for hybrid going down the AP side of the Offense tree, which is another easy 14-18 AP.

But this is a very shaky AD build for Kayle; she would much rather have double Doran's Blades and a Zeal, which gives up 25 AD and 5% AS, but gains 6% lifesteal, 160 health, 6% MS, and 10% crit. Math trickier though.
