Really! Wow so the ragebringer is totally worth getting it sounds like. So what would Ragebringer primary, Vyemm's Fang secondary bring?!

There's 3 points of comparison when evaluating a rogue mainhand. DMG, ratio, and delay. DMG determines maximum backstab cap. Higher is better. Ratio (dmg/del) determines average damage over time with melee swings. Higher is better. Delay determines how often the damage bonus is applied with melee swings. Lower is better.
Vyemm's Fang: It has a moderately high backstab value (13), very high ratio (0.764), and very low delay (17).
Grade: B / S / S
Ragebringer: It has a very high backstab value (15), moderately high ratio (0.600), and very high delay (25).
Grade: S / B / D
Mrylokar's Dagger of Vengeance: It has a very high backstab value (15), very high ratio (0.789), and low delay (19).
Grade: S / S / A
So, in mainhand, Vyemm's Fang will vastly outperform Ragebringer in terms of melee hits and perform closely in backstabs. There's no situation where Rage mainhand makes sense in that combination. I would advise you to ignore weapon swapping for backstab advice (These people are not experienced rogues from an accredited institution) and use Mrylokar or Vyemm + Epic. Just focus on positioning, your hp, and watching for enrage.
The Rage + Claw combo got hated on by Green players, but it's what I ran on Blue and I did fine for a casual Velious raider. You want a Primal spear and the above setup for the best damage if you're a serious raider.
