Hide + Sneak attack is a very clunky dynamic...

Never bothered hiding in dungeons--the time lost getting to the mob outweighed the 300 potency attack [500 from level 32-45]. It'd put me behind about 2/3s of the full combo and two mutilate ticks behind. It was a dps loss.

Did use it to sneak the occasional treasure coffer tho.

After a while, put hide on a secondar crossbar and NEVER regretted it. It's fun to go BLAP500potenceeeeee but not practical.

If you let tank get initial pull you will only lose at most 1 GCD because you can just Hide in front of the mob's face.

It later pulls you don't want to stand in front of a mob's face. Tank pulls mob, mob telegraphs cones, cones explode, now you hide and Sneak attack?

You're there for less than a GCD for only the Sneak Attack (and only pre-50; at 50 you do the same with TA from behind). Point being you don't need to Hide from 10 miles away.

What trash mob does an instant death cleave within 5 seconds of being pulled? Really. Waiting for it.

Not worried about instant death cleaves. I'd be more concerned with the mob's follow up as you dump more enmity into it than most tanks can put out in a single GCD. Isn't there a thread about how ninjas keep gibbing the tank in dungeons? This might be why.
