I can confirm that. My BS dmg is down from 54 to 34.

Just saw someone in ooc saying their BS dmg is down from 120 to 46

regarding the fix applied today:

(not sure if it's classic or anything changed to bs formula)

formula should be ((weapon dmg*2)+1)*(backstab skill/25)

for me with a 8 dmg mainhand and 165 backstab skill it should be ~112 dmg. it is 103 at the moment. seems the backstab/25 gets read as 6 (type int variable?) and should be 6.6 (float/double) according to safehouse rogue faq
