Hey Malan,

Yep I'm here. I'm the author of Shamulator.

There are indeed some significant changes coming in the next version which can affect the results. Specifically,

- Dualwielding should grant a 36% WF proc chance (in current version it's 20% no matter what)
- When weapons swing simultaneously, randomly choose which hand gets to swing first
- OH 50% damage penalty was incorrectly penalizing the WF Bonus AP portion of that damage
- Attempts to make Flurry better mimic ingame Flurry behavior
- If MH SS swing misses, OH SS swing should not be attempted

The last 2 have a pretty minor impact on final overall DPS, but the first 3 can change things up significantly. I'm not sure if these changes would affect the relative DPS you are seeing when varying +hit/critchance.

FYI I will be releasing the next version soon (and will post here when it's ready).

I'm currently hung-up on a possible error with same speed weapons lowering DPS compared to using a slightly faster OH weapon. Look back in this thread (page 49) if you'd like to read about it and illuminate me.
