I did much the same test but with only 1 weapon; another 1.9 speed mace (no offhand weapon equipped)
With 1483AP and the mace having a max damage of 49 I got the following results after about 10-20 minutes on a Blasted Lands Servent mob:
Melee
1002 successful swings
745 hits
258 crits
Max hit 215
Max crit 439
Hemo
385 successful swings
273 hits
113 crits
Max hit 369
Max crit 732
Given that the majority of the Hemo swings were at 1% those figures can be calculated as
Max base Hemo hit 307.5
Max base Hemo crit 610
307.5 / 215 = 1.43
610 / 439 = 1.39
If hemo hadn't been normalised then these figures would have been closer to 265-270 and 545-550, giving a ratio much closer to 1.25; as it is they are very close to what you would expect for a 2.4-speed normalisation with a 1.9-speed weapon (a ratio of 1.49:1).
Hemo is most definitely normalised in the current PTR. According to a very crude spreadsheet I knocked up it still outperforms current Hemo (even up to silly AP levels and 3.0-speed weapons) and I think that without the normalisation it would probably be a little overpowered.
I'd have actually preferred it if they'd increased the power of the Hemo debuff a bit more instead because I feel that it is the core of the ability but I'm certainly not going to look this gift horse in the mouth.
