Well, Evelynn has awe-inspiring base damage values that scale with AD to some degree, so I build her without any real damage items since games never run to full build stage anymore. Just me, Trinity, Wit's End, and tanky items like Randuin's Omen. Really, I would like you to go and look at Anivia, then at Evelynn. Eve Q is Anivia's R, Eve E is Anivia's E, Eve R is Anivia's Q. Take into account the bonus AS from Evelynn's E, and she has equal footing!

A while back I heard people stomping with tank Evelynn, I still haven't tried it myself, but I think it would require something like Frozen Mallet. You could give it a whirl if you like ;)

The only way to get people to gravitate towards AD is to raise the ratios on Q and E, then make the shield scale with AD, but not AP. It's just how things go.
