Yup,WF's knockback proc rate is 30 to 50% on the datamined main page....
Assuming it is able to roll at least 1300+ dps n have a socket, it will probably be BIS for PvP, not in terms of pure dps output but its proc/firing rate.
Sure that's defiantly badass =D I was just hoping WF would have some cool proc like the other legendaries, and it also seems venomhusk (my favorite looking max level bow) doesn't get any special proc. Of course this info could come later but I think the datamining is done D=
I took a 2nd look at wf again and something worries me, it is a lack of + weapon damage.
Even with petfect +50% damage and 11 ias, its damage is still going to be pathetic.
The random stat would need to be + damage for it to compete with rares but you are going to end up with 0 crit damage on weapon.
In other words, there is a high chance for you to find a WF with below 1k dps (just like it is now!) , i really hope i am wrong or the datamined info is slightly off but it seems likely that it remains crap.

+41-50% damage is the top notch ilvl 63 damage affix. So is 10-11% attack speed. But absolutely you will need a good elemental damage affix in your random pick in order to get genuinely high DPS, and then, you will not have either +crit damage or a socket for an emerald.
Guess that's the price you pay for such an insane knockback chance. 30-50%? DAMN. The best random affix is 2.6%
Edit: by my calculations, given average rolls on damage and speed, if it gets an ilvl 63 elemental damage affix (also with average rolls), it will crack 1150 dps. With an elemental affix towards the top end of the range, over 1250 dps. If my maths isn't off, absolute perfection on all three would be 1374.5 dps.
Anyone see any other .. ? if so plz link
Also it's venomhusk, not demonhusk
