aiya...

Sheen takes NO effect from items +damage to your attack.

It is your BASE!!! damage!!
(Meaning: Your hero's RAW attack with NO ADDITIVES, ie: item, or rally, or anything)

thus for sheen's damage ONLY INCREASES WITH CHAMPION LEVEL.

The same goes for trinity force

Lich bane is the only effect like this that truly can scale to be extremely powerful as its 100% of your AP which is an ever-growing stat and can hike up to 600-700 ap for a 600-700 damage proc.

(If i am wrong, i will gladly edit this post...but as far as i know, that's not wrong :P)

I have to echo that getting any AP item a waste for Nasus, it just adds to item cost. Only Spirit Fire and his ult benefit and neither get a good AP ratio.

I just tried trinity force on nassus..

HOLY **** AND HELL ON EARTH ITS POWERFUL. After infinity edge i literally brought their annie to 25% hp with a crit on siphoning strike and proceeded to make a quad kill.

The only exception I'd make to this is a Rylai's. Sometimes it's worth picking up.

Are you sure about Sheen and Trinity Force working the same way? The wording on the two is very different.

I wish Riot would just clarify this. When I only have an hour to play a night, I don't want to spend it testing procs when I could be in a match.

I do the whole Nasus thing a bit differently then you guys, I play him VERY aggressively.

I abuse the lifesteal passive to the maximum.

I always start with a meki in case I need to throw down an SS/wither before I can get chalice.

(I prioritize skills by SF/SS/Wither, putting 1 point into each then maxing out SF/SS.)

Then after chalice I always get boots, then depending on the team in no particular order I'll get

bloodthirster/infinity
frozen mallet
last whisper

once I get these items my build varies wildly getting on the team I'm going up against, I've gotten everything from guardian angel to a second bloodthirster.

Also as for spells I do a bit different from you guys, I tend to go with tele/smite to allow me to kill golem ASAP so I can spam ss/wither for maximum gankability. On twisted tree I've been doing fort/smite and exhaust/smite and that's worked out really well for me, I might switch to using these on the normal map.

Also as to any questions about lifesteal, yes, stacking lifesteal works VERY well. I completely destroyed a warwick in a 1v1 stand-n-hit battle.
