Rogue thaz BP proc

As it currantly stands. i feel the Shadowy Deception proc on the Chestguard of Deception is more of a hindrance than a boon in my opinion at least.
Contrary to belief Rogues end up tanking on occasion and the proc will hamper the ability to do so. Also buffslots are precious as the bp has a knack for proccing and taking a buffslot (it can be clicked off), but it can still block other buffs like GoG ect at bad times depending on timing.

the ideas i came up with are as follows:

1.) Change it too a clicky (with a recast befitting it) so it can be used when needed/wanted.

2.) change the affect to something like a jinx/vex proc that causes the mob to miss a blow or two. (kinda fits the proc name as its being deceived into thinking it hit you.)

3.) remove the proc and give it a focus such as affliction enhancement 6-7 (to enhance rogue dot poisons) or damage inc 5-7 (rareish focus for high end rogues)

4.) remove it alltogether and maybe give it a very minor boost to stats or saves


im pretty sure you Dev's ect are tired of seeing Thaz armor complaints but i figured i should at least try.
Any other suggestions are welcome and of course i dont mind criticism, though it would be nice to keep the flaming in check.
 
I've never really had the proc on the thaz BP harm my aggro generation when I was wanting to keep it, tbh...I mean, Dimmi tanked Ganzese (like, literally the entire fight) in /s 3 a few days ago, and aggro was never even remotely an issue. I saw in another thaz BP thread that was started this week that the thaz BP procs are meant to be like, little perks, not anything really that important, just kind of an...oh...yeah, that was neat kinda deal. I don't wanna come off harsh or snippy, but the rogue thaz BP proc is just....inconsiquential

Thaz armor is so silly OP to begin with that asking for a buff to the BP proc just ain't gonna happen...if anything it's probly a good way to get the BP that rogues are doomed to wear for life (pending an h-mal wrist or basking forever in the putrescent glow of the Charm of the Nemesis) nerfed all to hell =(

That being said, would I trade the BP proc to make it +10 BS mod? Sure! Is it gonna happen, highly doubtful.

It's hard to find things to improve about rogues, ain't it?
 
I stand ambivalent about it. It is kind annoying for it to pop up and block a stoneculler proc or something, but I dunno. It has never affected banji's agro when trying to tank, and when trying to lose agro I've never lost it other than on a successful evade.
 
yeah i didnt think the proc had much of an effect. its more or less the fact that it eats a buffslot at bad times occasionally that irks me. aw well, if changing it isnt an option, ill let it go.
figured trying once wouldnt hurt =p no use pushing the envelope or w/e.
 
Proc should be changed to the 100% deathsave, you know the one it was originally.
 
I think any ideas of improving thaz gear in any way should just be trashcanned and the posters should have to do laps around the gym.
 
This.

And as for the bp procs, yes, they were designed as perks. This particular bp does not need to be a clicky.

good enough for me. feel free to remove this eyesore from the threads. as i said, was worth a shot.
