Loving the +35hit, makes it worth equipping. :3

The proc rate does not seem to be upped as it was suggested in PTR. Anyone else notice this?
what is the proc rate in this?
Just saved this from the DE pile tonight on my feral druid. Didnt need the hit really (kinda wish it were crit instead) but it could come in handy.
The proc seems to hit for a little over 200 (a little lower then i expected) most of the time and procs fairly often in cat; maybe once or twice per mob. Our enhance shaman loves this thing but unless you need the +hit you might not want to take off your hourglass just yet.
Just got this tonight and wow, took it into the battle ground and BAM, accounted for 3% damage according to newest damage meters. Granted, I'm a beast spec hunter, so between autoshots, steady and instants, I hit very fast, well worth it for the +hit, the proc is very nice too. Great trinket for those of us who have a fast attack speed.
Kinda out there question:
Does this proc more frequently/harder for rogues with the +poison applicating/dmg talent? If nothing else, it still seems kind of a build-specific drop, as some items are. Can't argue with +35 hit though, sometimes. That's just major in PvE, poison or not. QQ on the proc rate, the real bread and butter is the +hit flood. Re: Romulo's Poison Vial by wolf625, Score 0.00
i think the proc rate is hidden if you have a weapon buff aplied cause when i have my poision off i see this thing proc like a mad man but with poision on i dont see it proc ever
i got it on my shaman, respeced enhas to try it out, 7.67% hit plus 6 from talents.
i gotta say this is a very nice enhas pve trinket, SS makes it do like 400+dmg and 600dmg crits heh. procs a lot too with dw wf. Re: Romulo's Poison Vial by obis, Score 0.00 Re: Romulo's Poison Vial by rekks, Score 0.00
Anyone know if +spelldamage applys to the proc? As an enhancement shaman I'd like to know cause the patch is giving us 30% of our ap as spelldmg :P

Recently got this. Seems to proc well. But that +35 hit, woot!!! I got this along with my Netherblade Gloves.
I was finally able to ditch my Cloak of the Craft and my Terokkar Tablet of Precision for this trinket and a Blood Knight War Cloak and still come out with a net gain of +17 Hit Rating, increasing my secondary stats in the process. Re: Romulo's Poison Vial by pizthenub, Score -0.67

Good for rogues who need the Hit rating Proc is good if ur lazy like me and never bother to use my trinkets. would trade for brooch (badge of justice) trinket only after i maxed my Hit. I believe that rogues dual weilding may also be a bonus to the proc.
I just ran some testing on the proc rate, doing just auto attacks:
1018 hits out of 1057 swings 21 procs of Romulo's Poison Total proc damage: 5950 Average proc damage: 283 Proc rate per hit: 2.06% Proc rate per swing: 1.99% Proc % of overall damage: 2.28% I'm guessing it only procs on hits, either way the proc rate is about 2%. For a combat dagger rogue with slice'n'dice up all the time, that's anywhere from about 1.75 to 2 procs per minute, depending on offhand weapon speed. Or 7.9 to 9.4 dps. That's not including special attacks, so we'll be generous and call it 10 - 12ish dps. Not really a fantastic dps boost by any measure. Thank God Blizz added that hit rating.

Don't overestimate this trinket. According to my rogue spreadsheet (from raidcal), the Hourglass of the Unraveller does more damage.
It might depend on your gear & spec ofcourse.
Quick question. I'm a combat rogue that just won this (woot!) My current hit rating is 220, and my trinks are hourglass and the abacus. which trinket should i replace with this? Thank you for any advice! =D
yeah we have a beloved huntard in our group who runs around all day blabbing about his hit rating being capped, knowing full well where the rogues in the guild stand hit rating-wise, and still Fing rolls on it. Thankfully it went to the other rogue, but dude if we still need 150 more or so hit to be solid, and you're capped at 121ish, isnt it for the better of the guild/group that the rogues get it??!!
sry for the long run-on jumbled rant
and abbacus and hourglass are ranked higher on maxdps, but lower on shadowpanther.net, so u figure it out....
