Any idea what the proc rate is on this thing?

Comment by Exterminatus

Without having any specific numbers, I can testify that the proc rate is quite good.

When it procs its haste and damage effect, it makes you Enrage like a Warrior. I used it on my Paladin, and when the Enrage effect was on me it made all my heals and spells red instead of bright yellow - very cool.

Having this weapon proc, gives quite a boost to overall DPS of the weapon in 15 seconds.

50 Haste Rating at lvl 45 is 7.03%
7.03% of 3.7 is 0,27
The attackspeed is now 3.43

But you must also keep in mind that it increases dmg done by 20.
Making the range 148-213.

With theese effects the new DPS of the weapon is ~52.6
Increasing the DPS from 43.4 to 52.6 is a 9.2 DPS increase.

Seeing from the 40-49 points view, only epics will have a better DPS.

I have this item enchanted with Crusader, and I would honestly say the proc rate is almost exactly the same for both. This seems to proc as often (if not, a little bit more often) than Crusader. And Crusader's proc chance is proc % = weapon speed * 1.82.

I would bet top dollar that this Chance on Hit is equal to the same (or 6.734% to proc on any attack; about 1 proc per minute--so it's up 25% of the time, statistically).

What this means for a level 49 twink--50 haste rating (at 49 this is 6.34% haste) brings this thing down to 3.47 speed. During that time you are hitting for 148-213 damage, making this a 52.1 DPS weapon.

If my above calculations are correct, and this is up 25% of the time, some simple math:

52.1(.25)+43.4(.75) = 45.6 DPS weapon. Not too shabby. (Especially compared to the 45.1 DPS of Executioner's Cleaver, this thing flat out beats EC for PVP because of the burst proc)

This proc is what's killer though. Not only does it make you look badass (you glow freaking RED--your spells, abilities, hands, everything!) and make the new enrage noise (the old bloodlust noise), but when the proc is up you're doing more damage than a Kang or Executioner's Cleaver. The intimidation factor alone is one thing that makes this worth keeping. Besides, when the proc is NOT up, you should be able to handle yourself if you're a good PVPer anyway. When it does proc is just makes your life so much easier.

Twinks at 49, you may not be reduced to Kang or Executioner's Cleaver. I know what I'm using.

I love this weapon.

FYI if you change weapons under the proc, the buff fades.

ive had this item for 3 hours, farmed some monsters in Tanaris, no proc yet, or im just unlucky

I'm skeptical if this could over-power the BoA Arcanite Reaper 2h Axe @ lvl 49.

with the proc.. everyone is saying this weapon clocks out at around 52 - 53 dps.
If that is the case - than Bloodied Arcanite Reaper beasts this thing out big time.
I don't need to post math to figure that out.

Just so no else has to look it up because they're confused like I was: It does share the same general model as the Royal Mallet, but that's as far as the similarities goes appearance-wise.
