Okay, so, I think I've got a way to make Wit's an attractive buy

Simply put, it needs to be able to hold its own against item 3153 to secure a position in a Diver's inventory. The MR shred isn't super useful on a wide selection of Divers and the flat magic damage OnHit is more befitting of ~1.5K component item. Part of the problem with Wit's in its Live version is that most of the OnHit items that are attractive to Divers deal physical damage, which makes the MR shred even less desirable than it was when OnHit items basically all did magic damage. So how about we try to make that comparison with BoRK a bit more direct, shall we?

item 3105 item 1043 item 3101 = item 3091 Grants 30 MR/Ar, 60% attack speed, 10% CDR, and- UNIQUE passive: Your basic attacks deal 4% of the target's max HP as magic damage OnHit. UNIQUE passive: Your basic attacks steal (2 + [1/3 Levels]) resistance, stacking up to five times.

So what have we got here? A really expensive item, for one. That's 3200 gold, not counting the combine cost. So we're probably looking at an item about on par with Trinity Force or Rageblade in terms of price. I could imagine it even falling into the price range of the old Madred's Bloodrazor. Practically speaking, this thing would be for laying the smackdown on high HP, low resistance targets. It would make the user tanky while augmenting the user's damage output. It would pair nicely with both Titanic and BoRK, giving Divers a choice of a sustain OnHit item, a resistance OnHit item, and an HP OnHit item.

So! The only question that matters. Would you buy it on Irelia?

The thing is, its not FOR divers. Its for fast on hits with magic resist and magic damage reduce. Normally for those that do not have really any damage but dont want to waste it on a non mr item and would prefer attack speed. This can include Diana, Kog in top or mid, AP lucian, Teemo, Kayle, and wherever you feel like adding on hits. Normally paired with Randuin's hurricane

It's Madred's Bloodrazor with MR instead of AD.

Isn't magic damage better than a equal amount of physical damage? I think that would be horrible to play against. Most melees aside form Riven have lots of true or magic damage anyway.

It could do physical OnHit instead. That would also be fine.

No doubt it would need tuning. I don't think any of the specific numbers here would be used verbatim. It was simply meant to give a rough idea of what you're looking at. Any item goes through rounds of iteration when Riot is working on it after all, I'm just pitching a general idea here.
