I've used a Locustlure in my mainhand from level 1 to 51 and it has worked pretty well. It parses about the same as a 10/22 piercer and rapier of oriin (12/25). The backstab to piercing ratio will be less, but the fast delay makes up for it.
Once you hit level 46 you will start to pull aggro when it procs. But evade works 2/3s of the time, so you can usually lose aggro easily. If evade fails just turn attack off and wait for the tank to get aggro again. The proc has not gotten me killed yet in 5 levels. Personally, I think having a dagger that procs slow is kinda cool. Adds kinda a new dimension to the class when it procs early on a mob.
If you are looking for a weapon for a new rogue, I recommend the Locustlure. Trakasaur's tooth and Bone Razor are also good and reasonably priced. Rapier of Oriin isnt really worth what it costs imo, but i have never used one myself.
