The aura of Shyvana's burnout should do more damage and her autos do less

This would enable her to be easier to balance and would make her kit show better clarity both for her and her opponent. Currently the area around her in burnout doesn't do all that much damage but the buff to her auto attacks while burnout is active does a good deal of damage. The problem with this is that she becomes reliant upon on-hit auto attack items to succeed which is great when devourer comes along but lousy when it gets replaced by guinsoos. It would also make more sense thematically in that her fire damage is actually doing damage instead of giving her extra punching strength.

Well, my simple fix is to substitute item 3091 for item 3124. Works great with her E and does wonders against high AP comps. But I would also consider more damage to her burn out instead of her AAs too.

The aura itself already does significantly more damage than the on-hit it gives her autos. For the on-hit to do more damage than the aura, Shyv would need 4.0 attack speed, which is impossible.

There is nothing wrong with her damage scaling being attack-speed-centric. It's always been like that. There has never been a time when the ideal damage items on Shyvana were not attack speed or on-hit items.
