So this seems to affect only instanced zones?

Yes that seems to be the case. Over the weekend, I did 2 Herald of Oratory runs for a few guildies and under the same conditions got vastly different results.

Run 1: Pet did just over 3K DPS
Run 2: Pet did just under 6K DPS

Both runs were with the same pet, same buffs, same task, same conditions on the same day (about 7 hrs apart).

So I did a parse for the upcoming nerf but it looks like a real mess when I try and post it. Any suggestions how I import it from gamparse to here and make it look decent? I was in the tanking tab and used the "export tanking details" button at the bottom and it looks like a huge jumbled mess.

Lol I just did the samething. You want: Send to EQ. It will give you a copy/paste just like if you were linking a DPS parse.

RoF earth pet with EM12, only cleric merc buffs (certitude 2). All pet aa's maxed.

Same mob. Shards landing.

Why do you have to turn misses on for the parse?

Knew about the nerf to block spells but hitting out pets' ac and hp was a surprise. Since I box a mage/beast combo usually by myself with mercs, I spend a lot of time offtanking with the warder and tanking named. This nerf could hit my gameplay hard.

If your not being hit that is part of tanking so they should be on. Also should come into play when I parse our earth pet since Air normally has better avoidance then Earth.
