So still worth getting all three? What if you had to choose only two? What combination would you do?

According to my DPS calculator, a Rogue with 255 STR, 100% Haste, and 100 ATK base against a mob around level 60 (non-raid mob) does the following DPS:

1. Vyemm's Fang Primary + Claw of Lightning Secondary = 80.5 DPS without Backstab.

2. Vyamm's Fang Primary + Ragebringer Secondary = 77 DPS without backstab. This inlcudes the + 40 ATK from Ragebringer.

3. Ragebringer Primary + Claw of Lightning Secondary = 72 DPS without backstab. This includes the + 40 ATK from Ragebringer.

You'll want to swap Ragebringer to your primary hand for backstabs if you are using Vyemm's fang.

Ragebringer + Claw of Lighting is probably the cheapest DKP-wise. It is up to you how much you want that ~10% autoattack DPS boost by getting Fang + Claw.

Personally I think having Ragebringer in Secondary is too much work to swap it back to Primary for backstabs every time. Ragebringer Primary + Claw of Lightning Secondary is my suggestion.

OP, please ignore this self-absorbed narcissist and the useless information he adds to every thread. He's proven to be wrong in all of his shitty theories, but he won't stop trying to spread the shit to every single thread. I don't even know what it means to have Ragebringer in secondary and weapon swap. That's not how it works at all.

Can you please stop derailing threads with off-topic nonsense? Nobody cares about your baseless opinions. They have been proven wrong multiple times, you are just spamming threads.

Did you read the title of the thread? OP was thinking about using Ragebringer in offhand. If they do that, they would want to swap Ragebringer to primary hand for backstabs, which wouldn't be advisable, as I said in my first post.

This is the most ridiculous thing you've ever suggested. Nobody in the history of vyemm's fang has ever done this.

Quit spreading your bullshit to every fucking thread.

You really need to learn how to read. I didn't say OP should use Vyemm's Fang in Primary and Ragebringer in secondary. I advised against it, because it is easier to swap Ragebringer with Fang if Ragebringer isn't in your secondary hand.

You are just trying to attack me in every thread, and are making any excuse you can, even when it is made up.

Everybody can read what I said and see you are just making things up. Why do this?

I got a locustlure from a scryer last night and wow it's fun hitting that fast in primary... switch to my Chokidai fang for backstabs. & I'm about a third of the way done with the epic quest. So excited to use that for my secondary.
