Procs fully at lvl 5 -- try yours out if you have one still. If not roll on it in ldon and tell everyone else its junk, just dont let a rogue equip it. :)
Got this one last night for my lvl 10 dwarf rogue. Would not have bought it if it did not proc at such a low level. I am not sure, but based upon the info shown above, I think the proc increases in damage by four points of DD per character level. My lvl 10 rogue gets a 41 point DD every proc (although I got a partial resist on one proc for only 18 points). It also can proc when you are backstabbing, so that it can do almost 100 points damage combined with the proc and backstab at my current level 10. That makes soloing much easier when I cannot find a group. I think I will have this item for a long, long time.
Fennell Firefoot, 50 Druid Hafling Guinn Isildur, 25 Paladin High Elf Boyer Biega, 21 Ranger Wood Elf Cadres, 17 Shaman Barbarian Catlette, 10 Rogue Dwarf Djinne, 12 Monk Human Riofrio, 11 Erudite Wizard all on Xev server
Check your item again as of january's patch and min level req proc notes, this item now procs full damage 141 dd at lvl 5, which IMO is by far one of the very last remaining uber 100+ dd proc'rs at lvl 1-10 anywhere in game.
The only other one I can think of is the Bottle of gelatinous slime that procs at lvl 1 still and deals 263 dd :) nice toy as well, but I would not sell this for under 100k given the power lvl ability of this toy. least till 35 or so this would slaughter any mob down.
Just a quick bit of information on the proc. damage. This weapon DID do a 141 DD Poison Proc. at level 1 BEFORE the 10/9/03 patch. After the patch, it had now been nerfed to scale from 5-141 DMG based on your level. I can confirm that at 26, it procs for 106 DD, and at 27 it procs for 109 DD. I have 232 STR and 243 DEX unbuffed, and it will proc anywhere from 4-6 times per fight against White and Yellow con Stonegrabbers in Marus Seru. I have found that using better ratio weapons with no proc on them (10/18 and 14/28) fights last about the same length of time soloing. So in conclusion, there is no advantage to the proc on this weapon as opposed to using better weapons with higher DMG and less DELAY on them.

141dd at level 5? With 11 damage things die in like 2 hits anyway so delay doesn't matter that much, but 141dd for a level 5 is very nice. This was made for 1 thing: twinking Yes rogues are mainly for DPS, but at level 5-15 it is mainly a solo game for rogues
