Well, AP Trist is a full-on offense burst mage. If you don't kill your target you won't get the reset on your main nuke (W) and you're suddenly in trouble. DFG will ensure you get the kill with the enormous amount of extra burst it will grant and get you going, since the moment you get a reset you can nuke another enemy.

Yes, it's true, it grants no defense but I don't think getting defense even matters on Trist. Since you put yourself in melee range with W you will either kill or be killed. Some health won't change that. It's just my opinion.
