Iquark

Well back form an hour and a half procwatch with Rod of the Sun King, and the results were not exactly what I had hoped for.

Gear setup:

Only using Rod in the MH, no OH, however there was mongoose on the Rod.
No Dragonspine, No Tsunami (I know I probably didn't need to take that off)
No Thundering Skyfire Diamond on.

Data:

Hits: 2140
Procs: 101
Time: 1h 33m 41s
Hits/Proc: 21,1
Procs/Min: 1

This was straight beating on a blasted lands mob, had a wonderful time on my 40 priest tossing a heal every few minutes. As stated, there were no haste procing items except the Mongoose enchant, so that could slightly skew the results.

It appears as if the Rod is no where near what I had expected from it. A little over 4,7% proc chance brings it to be less common than mace spec!

Excluding Combat Potency procs, it looks as if this will add approximately 1,36 procs from white damage and 0,705 procs from SS. Bringing a grand total of around 0,33 extra energy per second.

That's a VERY rough estimate of course, it's late and I'm tired, but from that alone it seems as if this is definitely not going to be better than Talon, or FoV.

Of course from this it is definitely not worth your time to work maces into the sheet it seems. I'm going to play around with the energy regen parts of the sheet in the morning to see what the spreadsheet dps gain is with these stats, and I'll get back to you all.

EDIT: Oh I forgot to add, rough estimate of proc dps: About 15 with what I have worked out so far.
