1) upgrade the stout to poor man to block hero damage
2) bkb before dominator
Also, you can't deny pa benefits from raw damage... theres a reason items like butterfly have damage and agility and not only agility that gives damage, agility damage doesnt add to crits while raw damage from phase boots, bkb, dominator does, thats why vlad (17% aura of damage but NO raw damage), power threads (agi but not damage) and butterfly (agi and non stacking evasion) are bad choices for a pa, though vlad can be good for teamfight overall.
The dagger as your wondering is like you pointed out already *last hits and chase / kill*...PA (phantom assassin) MAIN source of damage early and EARLY middle is from her Q *or the harassing of her Q* + the chances of proc on her ultimate to crit *too low during early levels due to lack of attack speed per hit to give it that extra OOMPH!*, that's why you max Q first.....like I said....here are the reasons *again*
- Last Hit to kill creeps during lane when opponent is harassing too much when you decide to go close
- Kill / Chase
- Main source of damage during early and early middle game
Q eventually just becomes a utility as you head towards middle - late game and having your damage items ( battle fury....onwards...seen in the order of the build above)
Hope that helps you out!
did you just say that her dagger is her main source of damage? i dont understand that statement at all. apart from that this build is decent and i will look forward to more from you in the future! +1

Anyway I agree that ring of basilius isn't necessary
JUST " REMADE " the build....should be more better!
@linkin - NO...pa doesn't benefit from RAW damage....she benefits from attack speed WITH damage * which is also included in this build * which has more chance to proc her ultimate per hit. You forgot also that agility gives damage on top with attack speed and armour
ANYWAY!
I remade this build so it should be better now.
PA benefits from RAW damage, since her criticals uses raw damage not agility, hence power threads are a bad choice for her. The basilus isnt bad really but a wand is way better for various reasons, you can start out with branches, its better stat-wise, and you dont need mana regen at all with pa once you've gotten perseverance (even with out it) also wand's active is great. Also, quelling blade isnt necessary but its not bad either, the problem is 3 tangoes arent enough for lane survivavility if your playing decent ppl, you should at least 1 set of tangos and a healing salve , or 2 sets of tang , otherwise your early will be terrible and that's the base of pa.
For BH, bkb and mkb i agree and the overall order is good!
Also for Starting Items some stats would be better then Quelling Blade imo. A Salve is missing. If the enemies see that you only have one set of Tangos, they'll probably try to harass the **** out of you.
