46+ SK soulbinder?

[Kaleadar]

Hey guys. I have seen and heard a lot of bad stigma around the Soulbinder shadow knight weapon and don't quite understand it. I know it's not the best dps in the game but the proc seems to be over looked and thrown to the wayside because of its dps.

So some of my background is iv been soloing for the most part and grouping when I want. My gear is good. Fungi, dragon sash, noc blade, art shield... I just dinged 46 on SK the other night and started playing around with my soulbinder. IV kept melee skills maxed and it seems to be decent dps. What I noticed more then anything was my average hp per kill was much much higher and I used less mana.

Of course this is good. So it made me think... Why the bad stigma with the Soulbinder and what should I be doing that's better? Seems a win for both group tanking and soloing so far. Is that it does not proc till 46 and most quit by then on a SK so they just see dmg delay?

Thanks
