Ye currently, but with the Rework her damage is heavily shifted towards AD, while her AP scalings are mediocre at best. Even the heal of her Q scales better with AD than with AP, there is pretty much no pint in building AP outside of Gunblade and maybe Zonyah's. They changed her so AD became her better damage option, they could have changed AP to be her better sustain option, simply swapping the functionalities of the two. But they just layed all her strength into her AD scalings.

To be honest, I don't even think that Gunblade is a mustbuy on her anymore. She can easily go without any AP, the only part of her kit that suffers from it is her second ult, that (at least in my playtests) is more used as a repositioning tool to gain her passive instead of truly executing.
