I've been theorycrafting an AP Marksmen Kog build for a while - it all comes down to whether or not you can get in auto attacks without dying. If you can't, then just go for the standard AP Poke build - Seraph's/ Luden's/ Sorc Shoes/ Liandry's/ Deathcap/ Void Staff. If you CAN get in auto attacks, I say at the LEAST you should get a Lich Bane (usually swap out Liandry's for this); the other obvious choice is Nashor's, which you could swap in for one of your other items situationally (swap for Void if nobody is building MR, swap for Tear if you're not really poking that much with R, swap for Luden's if you don't feel you're landing your ult + Luden's combo well).

With a full AP build including Magic Pen, Kog's max rank W does 15% Max Health on hit, plus the added on hit ratios from Lich Bane & Nashor's. Shit is insane.
