Thornmail doesn't protect you from carries, just from carries with bad builds. Bloodthirster + LW and a defensive item shut down that item. A carry with 100MR from runes/masteries/QSS takes 15% reflect damage, which is healed back by lifesteal.

I don't know how to graph what you are looking for, but the standard crit build with IE/PD/green basically multiplies a carry's DPS by 60-70%. Your normal DPS is AD * AS minus Armor mitigation.

On-hit builds are fine, but you can't carry with them, especially since strong %mPen is only available as an AP item (Void Staff), which on-hit never builds. If I am the only hero on the team that can carry, I feel as though I should build like one. So I only like on-hit on Kayle in the case where there is someone who CAN carry. Meaning, Kayle is support, top lane bruiser, or jungling.
