Ruffian (DW Passive) intended interaction with off-balance

Ruffian- Gives you a 15% damage bonus when attacking stunned, immobilized, disoriented, or silenced enemies.

Does anyone know if ruffian is supposed to include off balance or not for sure?

Now maybe I am wrong in believing that disorient is supposed to mean off balance, but if it is then one would think an off balance mob in cp would be twice effected by off balance + ruffian.

10% from exploiter passive and 15% from ruffian.

In my limited testing that was not the case, I would off balance a mob then attack with flurry and get a added damage value from flurry due to off balance. I then followed up with a immobilize to the target with talons on my starm dk while the target was still off balance and the damage would further increase. The increased damage on the immobilize+off balance combo indicates that off balance is either not triggering the ruffian passive or disorient is not intended to be off balance.

    You can medium weave to stun them and then attack for the 10% + 15%.
