yeah frozen mallet isn't optimal on riven

merc and GA are the ONLY defensive item you should get ( and a red elixir late ofc)

rest go pure brutal damage 4 slots left for 3 items:    BT /last whisper/ maw (get 2 BT  the order  you take them depends on team comps, and early hexdrinker after merc can be awesome vs ap tops)

GA > FM on riven for various reasons:

1) the resists make your lifesteal better because the hp you'll heal will be taken down slower

2)the GA revive will let you wait a bit more for your shield stun and broken wings  CDs

never take more then 2 doran, it works with rings because it gives mana regen, but it's crap with swords.
