    If wearing TH gear does increase the chances of TH procing, it is not anything you would ever notice without parsing thousands of fights (IE something small like the 1% of the effects on them).

    For the gear slots you are wasting to fulltime them, you would be giving up a lot more than 1% of your swings.

    Sneak Attack and Trick Attack already have a significant enough increased chance to proc it without gimping oneself, in my oppinion. Speaking of which, some people SWEAR that Raider`s Armlets increase that chance even more. I haven't seen any testing to support this though.

    Since chance to apply TH increases as you do higher damage, couldn't the increased proc rate be attributed to the increased Sneak Attack damage, rather than some hidden effect of the gloves?

    The % chance for TH to proc is not related to the damage of the hit.

    I haven't seen testing for either, but personally don't think much of this theory.
