Penalty for using 2 handed in 1 hand with shield

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?

All 2h are slower and weaker when used with shields unless they changed it and by so much that you'd always want a onehander when you fight with shield.

You can only use a few 2hers with shields (Bastard weapons, Morning star, spiked mace and stuff)

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)

Some of the 2hand weps have "the shield penalty thing" and they can't even be wielded with a shield .. does it also apply to having a shield on your back then ? or is it a mistake?

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.

No it does not... There are some you can use with a shield that also have "penalty with shield" thats what is confusing there...
