Depends.

Pure support: I think it's basically rush Philosopher's Stone, and Heart of Gold, get Boots and Aegis of the Legion. Much more, and you're not warding the map enough in a 45-60 minute game.

Then again, playing pure support sucks unless you're playing on a pre-built team, as basically a team of 5 tanky AD characters and mages can win most random agmes. I've generally been of the mind to go with a hybrid AP/support model. Early game, you can use a Q->Power Chord attack to do surprising damage (generally 25-33%) in one swing if you build a little of both (Also doesn't hurt when you can spread minor slow with Q later on if you build a Crystal Scepter). Then stick on some cooldown reduction and vary up your aura as needed.
