I remember mid game i got hit by a varus Q for 680.

Late game my varus Qs are doing about 600-650 to squishies fully charged

Am i building him wrong?

I go item 3508 item 3031 item 3085 item 3036 item 3072 item 3006

I take him bot lane i wanna build him like a normal adc tho.

Skip the Runaan's and pick up a Shiv. It makes wave clearing so much easier and your Blight stacks tend to be AoE anyway if you hit good ults. 600 damage to squishies is still like, at least a quarter of their health, which is great, but if you really want to amp that up skip crit entirely and go Tear+Youmuu's into straight AD. Talking item 3812 item 3072 item 3147

If you want to play a varus build that focuses on Q damage, and has 40% CDR: item 3006 item 3508 item 3085 item 3812 item 3142 If you only want to hurt squishies, then you can finish the build off with a item 3072 , but I don't recommend that because you won't hurt tankys as much. item 3036 will help you hurt tanks more, even if your Q will hit for a little less against squishy targets. Ask your support to get item 3050 so you can get 100% crit change.

That build is fine, but it focuses on auto attack damage rather than Q damage.

item 3142 + item 3147 are necessary for high early/mid game q damage for the flat armor pen. That said, I think the essence reaver build is probably better.
