Gramar i dont have xp with hc races but i do have xp with timed hc runs to test different builds to write guides.
Will be streaming 3 4h practise runs tomorrow if anyone is interested to see how this build works, i will put stream link in guide.
I dont know if you seen devmoons stream lately but hes doing exactly the same as i am.

You mean you're doing exactly the same as devmoon, not he is doing what you;'re doing :P But keep practicing struyk, considering how many times you have easily gotten 32 in practice runs we can all assume this weekend you will easily get 32, that is of course if you are finally able to finish a race lol

So are you're claims based on 4hr races? Dude I think you have alot of refining to do. GL, but it sounds like you had mild success in one race and then wrote up a guide.
Finished 17th in Rampage - Peaked at 11th
Finished 18th in Torment/Bloodline 1mo Race - peaked at 9th

By act 2 normal I usually start using weapon swap. I set a fast sword (preferably a sabre, doubly good if I get +1 level to melee gems on it) along with a shield in weapon swap to use in boss battles. After this I generally don't need to touch weapon swap equips for the entire race, unless I find a sword with +1 melee skills. I also set my skills so that viper always replaces my dual strike when I weapon swap to avoid any hassle with skills during battles. For shield I try to find a kite shield for +resists which is helpful in Merveil and Fidelitas. I can also combine this with dual strikes by applying 4 viper charges, weapon swap, dual strike a few times, weapon swap, viper once before charges run out, rinse and repeat to dispatch bosses quickly.
Weapon upgrades is not that bad with dual wield. You don't get a huge upgrade every time you reach the level requirement for the next weapon tier but instead gradually boost your dps every time you find a better weapon, just replace the worse one you have. The main advantage 2handers have is that they only need 4 whetstones and 1 alch to upgrade weapons late while dualwielders have a harder time crafting.
End race farming speed at cruel ledge for a dualwielding cleaver is comparable to a 2h ground slammer.

Thanks, it's always interesting to hear how other good players play a race. I've never explored the 1h at all, always just gone 2h. I tried a 1h board ranger just now, things were fine until prisoners gate where DPS just dropped waaay off. My wep wasn't horrible but you're right, no way near enough DPS for races.
It is funny though if you get a real leet 1h it can do more damage with cleave by itself than if it was coupled with a crappy 1h.
