With armor pen changes what is the best build for GP?

So I main Gangplank and usually do well with him and I've always went the build path that focused a lot of armor penetration because it seemed like the strongest way to build him after they removed crit chance from trinity force. Now that lethality is a thing I'm worried that this build path is not as good on him and I was hoping to get some insight from people who understand the changes well or have tried different builds with him.

My typical build before lethality was introduced was usually item 3078 first followed by item 3142 and typically had some variation of the combination of item 3031 item 3156 item 3036 item 3087 and either item 3111 item 3047 and reaching cdr cap through runes. From what I understand the lethality from youmuu's gives you the same amount of armor pen it used to but only at max level, so it's worse for most of the game. And now maw doesn't even have armor pen and has 10% cdr.

So would it be better now to go full on critplank again with a build like item 3078 item 3031 item 3087 and add like item 3508 to max out the cdr? Or something like item 3078 item 3142 item 3147 item 3814 and focus on lethality? Or something different?
