Benefits demo / aff more than it benefits destro. Is the exact same issue as contagion vs eradication. Proccing off of dots means the dot benefits from it, where proccing off a direct damage spell means that spell doesn't.

..and so he left, with terrible power in shaking hands.
Actully locks have 6 shared legendaries if you count in Sin'dories spite heck you might aswell count Feretory aswell since it works for Demos fire spells aswell making that 7 shared 8 with the new one. So if thats the reasoning Blizzard used its a pretty bad one.
I just hope there are more coming but i kinda doubt it.
It will get nerfed like Feretory did, at least for Affliction.
I doubt more legendaries coming this patch, its one for all the specs.
May be at 7.3.
has anyone actually tested yet on PTR? if the destro proc benefits the chaos bolt you cast to proc it, then it should be pretty good.
If not, which I agree with others is the more likely case, it will be pretty bad (for destro)
i think people have forgotten the soul shards is differnt per spec
- - - Updated - - -
it was so yeah

no they dont, sindori can be used for all 3, just need to be in demo for it to drop, but it does the EXACT same thing for all three specs, so it is just as good for destro as it is for demo
Judging from my farm this week the chest would have about a 14-15% uptime for aff based on the number of shards I spent.
I wonder if it's better than afflictions cloak or the hood.
At least it would be fun to have a damage proc to react to "on demand".
If the 14-15% uptime is right, then yes in practice it will be better is my guess. you'll get a lot of mileage from being able to dump UA's during the proc
@Warlock thanks for posting data, sad as it makes me
Careful with these assumptions, though: Did you wear hat/belt during farm? those 2 increase your shard generation quite a bit and you would not be able to wear both together with the chest.
Also: You're playing with the 4-set which again increases shard generation more than the new 2-set.
More shards available --> More shards spent --> perceived higher uptime.
Lastly, the pure fact that it is a Tier slot also would mean that this legendary needs to compete with the 2+4 set combinations vs. for example Prydaz, Belt or any of the rings.
