i build him in 3 dorans early, cause you know that you dont have some reliable escape mechanics till 6 and even then ult can be screwed by your enemy, so extra hp really saves life

then i go for BT - well thats an item wich can give you more ad then any other, and varus is kind of ad caster not so much of autoattacker+bt lifesteal and 3 dorans synergy is good

then its standart like PD and going for secont BT if your enemy doesnt stack armor much is great(but optional to LW ofc)

masteries 21/9 going for +hp per lvl and +40hp, so you can live longer in the mid/late game

i havent tried goind for meditation or movespeed

i find maxing E is better then Q in most cases(got like 4-5 games against varuses who were maxing their Q), cause you dont need to wait for Q chargeing, E is instacast, and deals immediate burst dmg after 3 blight

and another thing with Q is that you will often find yourself fireing Q when your enemy has no blight on him, if you AA he can back and wait till blight wears off, if you shoot without blight while maxing your Q skill, your actions are not effective as shooting 3 AA and immediately E him

so i go like E->W->Q-> then simply maxing E and W(and ult ofc)

with the same build i had more dmg then my enemy varuses(i intentionaly went for the same builds as they to check the dmg output)

just my 10 cents)) sorry for my bad english, hope this helps you to play varus better
