Of course, the active is useful, but I feel that Wota for 900gold: 80ap 25% spell vamp(total including aura) + 30ap/25%spell vamp aura for rest of your team mates is so much better. Kat doesn't benefit from the attack damage/lifesteal at all. For 1.5k, I'm almost at a large rod or catalyst or anything else. I just use ward+ shunpo to get away from a gank.
On a side note, I'm still debating if I want Lux or not since she's on sale...She's only 3.1k ip though...
As others before me have said, her skills scale off AD as well, so making a hybrid item isn't that terrible of a decision as you make it out to be. The shunpo+rylai's+active also makes you really hard to get away from and that includes your ultimate. Combine that with the fact that it's extremely common nowadays to have an ad carry, ad top and ad jungler on your team. You might have a support that does magic damage but it's barely damage... So the aura goes to waste for the most part on WoTa. Catalyst? Mana items on Kat? I can understand the spell shield for your ultimate but that is really likely to fail anyway as it pops on any spell and not any interrupt. Note: I'm not stupid when I run with Amumu, Vladimir, Katarina, Kog'Maw and Sona or something I do get a WoTa. It's also not that terrible to have your auto attacks actually hurt somewhat seeing as you should buid somewhat tankier on kat then on other casters.
