Average and max melee damage dropped :: World of Warcraft

So I log in last night (3/10 - patch day) with my 40 froggy pally, and I noticed that my average damage had dropped considerably from the night before. I am using the same weapon, Hammer of silent screams (2BH), and fighting the same mobs, in the same place, with the same STR and DEX as the night before. The only difference is my 2HB skill went up one point. My max damage, before the patch, was 138, with average about 70. Last night max was 98 with average about 50.

I spoke to a friend about this and he said his pet's damage had dropped considerably too. Anyone know what’s going on with this? Is this part of the 'Melee Fixes' they were talking about? You know, brining melee guys up to par with some casters? Or, am I just loony?! I can accept being loony.

Fear me! For I will crush you with my Jolly Boots of DOOOOM!!!

These two issues have two different causes.

The reduction of your damage is due to the change in the damage done by weapons when used by someone below the recommended level. Although they displayed a lower number (in red) they were still hitting for full damage. They will now hit for the damage that is listed when you right click them.

The reduction in pet damage is a straight out bug, no haste has taking hold on pets. The patch this morning is suppose to correct this.
