While true, it will delay you from getting Madred's Razors quicker than the tried and true Cloth Armor & 3-5 Health Pots jungle starter. I only see two things you would do with that Vamp Scepter, one is Wriggle's Lantern which I think is a waste of time and money on Warwick -- it's a legendary item that pales in comparison to Bloodrazor's lategame. The second thing is Bloodthirster, which I will not disagree with getting as a 4th or 5th item, but not as a necessity. As Ivo09 said, WW doesn't really need more lifesteal than what he already has, and the additional AD is good, but not as good as you think on Warwick, when he's played as a jungler/guerilla/offtank fighter.

TBH, you can really do fine with just Madred's Bloodrazor and Wit's End as your offensive items. His ult can make carries piss in their pants and also keep high-hp tanks in check. The rest of his inventory I would suggest filling in with tanky items like Sunfire, Spirit Visage, and a situational like Thornmail if their AD is focusing you, Frozen Mallet to take more beating and make chasedowns easy as cheese, or BV/Quicksilver's if you want the edge against an AP/CC dominant team.

The way WW is played, AD/Lifesteal don't really benefit him as much as tanky items. He tends to get focused down a ton so stacking AD/LS won't do much if you're just a poor CC'd vegetable dying within seconds.
