Title: Penalty for using 2 handed in 1 hand with shield
Post by: AirPhforce on January 10, 2011, 05:37:28 am: In the polearms section, many polearms have a Penalty with Shield attribute, however nothing in 2 handers has this.

What 2 handers have the penalty and what is it?

When using them as a 1h weapon you will suffer a 35 percent dmg and speed penalty. (and of course 1h wpp count and not 2h)

What it means is that they can't be used at the same time as a shield.

But they can have the shield on the back and switch between the weapon and the shield.

Atleast I believe so. Never used any of those high-end 2handed weapons.
