I like the stats given but, I think it needs a gimic. I would add

+Uneffected by water

What this does is you dont start to swim when you're in water, and you are not slowed down by it.

I think it works well with how heavy it is and since its a ancher.

also add

10% more knock back on hit

+knockback on hit
+damage
-speed on wear
with shield:
-speed on charge (or duration)
-movement control

Not good at all this %, so think by yourselves :)

Just make it Scotmans Skullcutter reskin, since that's the weapon that already has damage bonus and speed penalty.

since it looks like a two-sided deeldo, make it sexually assault every other player on the map.
with no random crits.

+ 30% Damage
+ Knockback on the opponent
- 15% Speed on wearer
- 50% Speed in water.
- No random critical hits

+50% longer swing speed <- important
+100% more knockback
Speed from charges ramp up as momentum builds and continues after the charge is done for a short period of time <- important
-30% switch to and from speed

-100% swing speed
+40% melee knockback dealt
+20% weaponswitch
This weapon has extended reach (same as sword)

it looks cool but non of these stats or gimicks interest me. make it heavier, more power slower regular speed and charge speed when deployed. maybe it still has heads, but the heads only effect damage and re amping up your speed to regular no added health on head then you have my vote.

How about...

When weapon is active:
+| 25% more damage, similar to the Scotsman's Skullcutter
+| 50% knockback reduction (anchor qualities)
+| 25% less cooldown time on charge (to even out the odds)
+| Charge hits at any time (it makes every shield into the Splendid Screen)
- | 10% slower firing speed (it's large, and an anchor)
- | 20% less movement speed, also similar to the Scotsman's Skullcutter
- | 10% less movement speed from charge (anchor qualities)
