Thanks for all your answers.
petertmorgan:
Very interesting approach and very promising results. Encumbrance and weight class. That makes sense (even comes with a nice touch of realism).
I don't think that stats are that important for lightnings (at least not SPD and DEX). Always thought that agility fits better for a dual-wielder than brute force. So I concentrated on SPD and DEX till 100 before switching to SEN and STR and sometimes VIT (and got that lousy result of 8 out of a very very huge amount).
Anyway, next time I will play with two samurais. One using the standard samurai equipment, the other following your example. Keeping encumbrance as low as possible for both. Hopefully there will be a difference.
