Damage dropped from 8-900 to 600 and under, with disc from 1500 to 1k is this permanent?

Well according to the patch notes backstab damage calculation has been redone. I haven't had a chance yet to verify how this works out.
Best would be if someone could do some parses and post them here (screenshot etc) so we see how classes work out and then we can look at adjusting weapons etc to balance each class.
Imo Rog and Zerker should be king of DPS (next to Wizards etc).

Another damage nerf to rogues...
Seems like every "update" they do Rogues get worse and worse. They used to rival Monks in DPS, but we cant have that now can we?
Thanks Starit, hopefully this server will have something besides monks that can do some damage.

After several tests, I noticed rogues putting out HIGHER backstab damage than before, so I'm not sure about this data.
I'll run a few more tests. Yes, the 600 with around a 20dmg piercer sounds about right. The 800-900 before I am struggling to reproduce.
EDIT : Okay, They had part of the formula hidden
. From my understand, rogue dps is high, but I'll look into tweaking the backstab formula a tad.

I was and still am using Chaotic Serrated Bone Dirk =x
Wouldn't mind even seeing the reuse time cut back a tiny bit? Just a thought.
