At first glance the only decent MP ones (if any of them would even make it to MP) seem to be the SS amulet and mage ring. Even then I'm thinking, stealth mage? Gimme a break.

What's wrong with a stealth mage?
Is that person's name Cat Stamps?
What's wrong with a stealth mage?
a) Fade cloak -> Go back in Stealth
b) Playing the ele as a mage trapper
The ring sounds pretty fun actually - assuming the internal cooldown is not too long (hopefully not a 30-second CD), it shaves off a lot of pressure for support-oriented Neria and ZITHER!
The damage still won't be spectacular unless you use Haakon, but even if the Stealth has no Fade Cloak effect it'd be pretty useful.
Kitty's Collar would goes well with Rogue Stealth, I think?
Andraste's Sacrifice is not good for MP though, because most of the time you have enough Stamina/Mana and not enough skills off cooldown, so it only goes well with Pala since she's the only one who wants attention from enemies and can negate the cooldown penalty.
Malika's Guard would be so much nicer if it is also for Warriors. Maybe Luka can make use of it since she can lure enemies into traps? And Pala, of course, but again?
Virtuoso would love that mana regen ammy. Assuming any of those make it into MP.
Edit: That Kitty story makes me feel bad for the demon.
I want that Doubt ring. I could see the Amulet (Malika's Guard) making the SS even that more invincible. Andrasta's Sacrifice would probably work best on an Arcane Warrior or Virtuoso (if you're going for an offensive build). And yes, I know the Virtuoso doesn't have to worry about cooldowns. It's the mana regeneration I'm looking at, and having enemies taunted towards you means more meat to the fire when using Power Chord. That Kitty Collar doesn't look so appealing to me, since I'm not seeing a net gain anywhere. You're only going to benefit so much from the revive and evasion bonuses because the amulet basically reduces your defense to s***.

Assuming the Amulet is built to helpt rogues to stand longer against foes eye-to-eye it´s minus is to the player, I guess. You wont need it while tanking as rogue .... hahahaha (did I make a joke ?

Guard good for pretty much everyone that isn't assassin.
Andraste for Virtuoso. No CD to begin with. All benefit, no downside.

Good question.
Implying any of these items will ever show up in MP.
If you read the notes on the main splat page it says we'll be seeing them at least, hopefully that's part of their Pax Prime coverage. I thought it had an ETA so edited for that.
