Has anyone done any tests on this to determine proc rate? Or if not, does anyone have the ability to make it on the test server so I could do so myself?

This one's a drop, I think. The other new melee one (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32409#00z) is exalted consortium rep.

Alchimist can make them !! and I guess a Jewelcrafter can cut it !!

too bad it is a drop, I hate to wait

I got one after the recipe dropped in SSC last night.

After a few heroics and random grinding, I'm showing about 1 ppm, 68 hits/proc with a little over an hour of combat time.

It's not amazing, but not horrible. I want to try it on an extended fight in the next few days if possible.

Going to try the +3% crit/12 agi gem for comparison soon as I find somebody exalted with consortium.

When you say "1 PPM", I guess you mean "it procs about once per minute when I'm going all out " and not "it's a 1 PPM enchant that thus goes off about 3 times per minute in practice"? Am I reading you correctly?

For a rogue, 68 hits per minute would be just auto attack with both weapons on. This is of course a rough guess, but if he had fast daggers (1.8 MH, 1.3 OH).. thats 60/1.3 + 60/1.8 = 79 swings per min. If he had slowish swords (2.7 MH, 1.5 OH).. thats 60/2.7 + 60/1.5 = 62 swings per minute. So yea, 68 is likely just auto attack. 68 hits/proc = ~1.47% chance to proc.

After SnD and spam damage, you'll probably get another 50% more swings. So, whats the uptime for a 6-second duration buff with a ~1.4-1.5% proc chance at 90-120 swings a minute? Twice a minute roughly? So.. 20% of the time you're attacking ~24% faster. 0.24 * 0.6 (assuming 60% white damange, ignore cpots and other procs :S) = 14% damange boost, 20% of the time... so overal maybe a 3% damage bonus. Not too bad.

Remember, the later half of this post is super rough numbers with lots of factors rounded out. 3% damage increase vs 3% dmg increase on just crits and some agi.. I think its a clear winner here, even for dagger rogues, especially for sword/fist/mace rogues. Damn this gem will scale nicely..

As a non-combat rogue (come on, it's SO BORING), I still feel like haste is very very good.

I'm 41/20 and with so many proc and equip based items, haste still begets haste+dmg in a lot of cases.

Dragonspine, Mongoose, Thundering Skyfire - all the procs cause more procs with the others.

Not to mention things like extra Romulo or WSC procs... (or coup de grace)

Which is another little thing I like about mutilate. Twice as many chances to proc anything from specials, since it's 60 energy for two swings instead of one. My mongoose uptime is, frankly (subjectively), crazy.

Anyone know if it only drops in Tier 5 Raid Instances? Wowhead and Thottbot still seem clueless as to where the pattern is dropped; if it's just in places like SSC or if it's just a random world drop.

Oh, and has anyone tested it as a hunter? It says it works with ranged, but we all know how that goes.

1 PPM according to procwatch's counter.

In practice, what I haven't visually observed:

-Never seen back to back procs.
-Procs are always at least 30s apart.
-Has not proc'd off ranged (but I do so little pulling it's not to say it *doesn't* work).

I'm using a 1.8 MH/1.4 OH.

Confirming that it procs on ranged (I'm a hunter after all), and we found it off a Bog Lord in SSC.
