Trident's nice for the slow proc on top of it's agro generation. Can never go wrong with a weapon that can apply a mini slow if Shamans are having trouble landing the initial slow. I don't think many raids are banking on the MT's DPS to get them across the finish line.

Trident slow uses CR instead of MR, so it can slow a few targets that are MR immune if I recall correctly.

I totally get that. My response would be that the slow itself is inconsequential. It's useful for like 3 mobs and a 10% slow doesnt change the cadence of a CH chain at all. At least not in my guild. It's reliant on it's proc for aggro (and there's definitely something to be said for opening a fight with a couple big 400 hate procs).

Kflame proc is minimal hate, but the white damage is equally as dominant over the trident's as the trident's proc is over the Kflame's. The only difference is the white damage aggro is gonna be smoother and more consistent. You'll also get riposted slightly more with the Kflame. Im not saying one is better than the other btw. I'm saying Kflame is very underrated and should absolutely be considered in the same tier as trident. Another point is that Kflame is superior for silence fights as well so literally doesnt need to be bagged. There is a list of probably 7-8 weapons that would be better in your main hand than a trident in a silence fight and for Kflame, there is one weapon. Scepter of Destruction only.
