Does anyone know what the rppm is for this? It feels to be super low, just did a 3 minute patchwerk test. It didnt apply a stack of toxin once

Tooltip is misleading: Currently tracked effect "1216603" shows all stacks applying immediately on melee hit. Just hit the button when its off CD and it should proc a number of times influenced by haste?
i645 is currently getting 6 procs avg 1.2m DPS total on my Havoc DH with 7k haste. Id love to hear your numbers for science.

Got this on my holy paladin and testing it out on a dummy, it's only doing damage when pressed, about a million each time (649 ilvl). Pretty useless.

Upgraded to Explorer 8/8 it indicates 584,390 Nature dmg plus 66,787 per stack over 5 seconds which should total 918,325 dmg (+2994 str/int/agi). In reality, against mobs (not dummies) the damage is nowhere near this. I don't know if it's broken or it's not applied fast enough that you get 5 stacks before a mob dies, but the amount of damage Details! shows for this is embarrassingly low.

Some people are misinterpreting the tooltip's text. It doesn't add a DoT for each stack. It only does damage when it is activated, then it addes a single DoT that does increased damage for each Ratfang Toxin stack applied to the enemy that was targeted. With that said, its still broken. I have a champion version that is suppose to do 650K damage without a single stack, and it should do 75k x 5 + 650K (950K total) to enemiesa with 5 stacks applied, however, I can only get it to do 400K at most on a training dummy, and I cannot get it to add a single stack to any enemy. The damage is always around 400k. It should show in the auras section of the dmg meter if stacks are being applied, and they are not. I've been playing WoW long enough to know a broken item when I see it. Hopefully they fix it soon as a delve just proc'd a champion version for me.

Anyone that commented about the item not being good is sadly mistaken. The item is broke im sure of it, but even as it stands, at 410k - 440k when I activate it, its a nice extra chunk. What makes it soooo damn useful is the fact that it ignores the global cool down, in other words, its truely an instant cast. For those of use who are maniacs on our keyboards and find ourselves slowed down by the global cool down, this trinkey is basically free damage, it costs absolutely nothing. Why not use it, unless you have somthing better. The champion version also has 3700 int, so its stats are pretty nice as well.

Sadly, while cleave effects apply the debuff to other targets, the Use only consumes them on your target, converting them into the DoT.

I've noticed sometimes this just stops adding stacks to the target, like it doesn't even work anymore? I had to relog to make it start giving stacks again. Big DPS loss if you don't happen to notice!

Maybe the "stacks up to 5 times" means exactly that. A random number between 1 and 5. Nothing to do with how many hits on the target?
From the inconsistent reports in the comments, this is most likely.
Some people are claiming they get 5 stacks from 1 hit, and others saying they got 1.
RND makes more sense, and is what the comment says; "up to 5 times.".
