Backstab has been broke since the May 29th patch with..
Kanras: All attacks by clients except throwing and archery now using new mitigation formula to more accurately distribute hits.
...and it seems they have no plans on putting it back to how it was. Its sad when backstab is now the same as a regular off-hand melee hit 50% of the time. Actually, I hit harder with green jade axe then most of my backstabs.

You mean how it was when you would Max backstab 40% of the time? Are you fucking kidding me? I'd love to see a log where your Green Jade Axe in offhand is hitting harder than ANY one of your backstabs.
I honestly don't understand the point of these posts. Do you guys expect to be double backstabbing for 350 EVERY single round?????????

Shrug. If they don't know how to fix it, that's understandable. I don't. But I don't see how you could argue it's working as intended. Anyone who played a Kunark-era Rogue on Live could confirm that it's not working as it did back then. The backstab ability has essentially been marginalized, whereas on Live it was a game-changer. Does Crystalline Spear even out-parse Bone Razor in main-hand right now? Because on Live, those two weren't even comparable.

It's far from marginalized here. With double backstab and a minimum of 120 at level 60 you ARE the class for DPS. Noone else can compare.
Monk is next after you. What do they get? Slightly higher skill caps. No double flying kick. No minimum of 120 for flying kick.
