No? And why would it matter if the 2pc had 100% uptime?

The stat buff you get is random, and the buff lasts 30secs. The CD on Tricks is 30secs. In practice, it would never be worth waiting for the CD on a trinket.

You backstab because it has a lower energy cost, not because it does more damage. Thus increasing Envenom uptime.

That isn't clipping, that's refreshing. Clipping would be casting envenom while you still have 1sec left on your current envenom.

Generally, you clip envenoms so you don't cap out on energy, it doesn't happen very often, but it certainly happens more often than an Envenom being dodged with <2secs left on SnD.

As far as I can tell, SnD is refreshed at the end of the GCD used to cast Envenom. It's silly really, you would think that it would refresh as soon as Envenom successfully lands on a target, but nope.
