It's a 3 minute duration but can break early by chance or whenever the enemy is nuked. If it doesn't land ... no root perk. If you are correct and root generates the same flat 400 threat that stun does ... well FON would be a massive aggro hog indeed.
From a DPS standpoint, the *new damage bonus tables along with the dynamic of monks triple attacking with their main hand weapon should work out such that TStaff should be comparable to the best raid monk dual wield setups out there .. including fist of nature. Perhaps a raid geared monk could weigh in? I'd parse it but I don't have the weapons. BotB monk DPS at the raid level are gonna be the ToV 2handers, but none of them have a threat proc.

I've done a decent amount of puppet show with Teslacoil, who has a FoN/Fist of Lightning setup. I can confirm that he has no problems holding aggro from me running a Tunare daggger/epic setup. Not sure how that would compare to TStaff though.
I know a few monks that are definitely using Facesmasher/Abashi's/Shovel, I might be able to find some parses that have both of them on it for comparison. I'm not sure he's always running FoN on raid targets though due to aggro problems.
