I was having the same issues tonight. I say issues because it felt like two separate issues.

1. Evade was basically worthless. Most successful evades still left me at the top of the aggro list. There were multiple instances where I would draw aggro, evade, completely stop attacking, and get summoned over and over while i backed away not attacking long enough to evade again. Sometimes the second evade would lower me from the aggro list. The warrior trying to pull aggro from me was 55+ and dual wielding yak clubs.

2 I understand a backstab should generate aggro, but it's generating way more than multiple ykesha procs from what I saw. Backstab consistently threw me at the top of the aggro list. Rogues are going to go from the kings of melee DPS to not being able to engage mobs before 60% when ragebringers go in.
