Anyone have this yet?  I got it today (rank1) and have no idea if the skill is even working.  There are no visual or combat log indications that it has procced.  With a 50% proc rate i thought i would see something.<div></div>

I would assume it looks like evade.

I kind of missed the point on this ability. Isn't this just the same as turning off your Rumble?

<P>No, you get a threat decrease too...</P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P>My problem with it though is losing Rumble's damage proc. I'd never use it.</P>

I'm going to have to agree.  I'm up to 3 points in it now and I'm still pulling aggro.  Doesn't seem to be working at all.   <div></div>

The problem is, detaunt procs don't show up in parses. So there's no way to check at all whether it's going off or not.This is something that brigands have been asking for on their procing detaunt stance since LU13. The only way you can see that one working is because it also lowers threat position, so you can see the mob take off for someone else.Would be nice if they'd say when taunts and detaunts went off, and for how much (since many are for a range). Give us something to add to parses.If we have actual values in parses, I'm sure the parser makers could add an additional value that automatically added taunt and took off detaunt values to get a pseudo "hate" value. Heals could be factored in too. Not perfect obviously, since other things affect hate, but it could give a closer representation...And then we could see what the hell this ability is doing.<div></div>

While I agree these procs need to show up in chat log (maybe add 1 dmg to them?), Shiftiness is broken.  50% chance to -500 threat with 5 points in, I should not be pulling aggro as much as i have been.. hell, i shouldn't be pulling aggro AT ALL with an ability like that running.<div></div>
