[Weapon Suggestion] Crescendo

[sappinmahsentry]

I don't have good drawing skills, so think this  plus this  with a little bit of this .

 

Alright, now to how it works. Two gigantic "mandibles" attached to a gauntlet that strengthens the muscles, dexterity, and endurance of the arm.  They'd be slower than a magistar, but they'd deal a crapton of damage in a wide range, along with an already great reach.  The weapon would also have a unique "charge" mechanic, not to be confused with charge attacks.  The weapon has an increased melee combo multiplier and with every kill without switching from melee, damage would increase by 0.4%with a cap at a 20% damage bonus.  However, along with the slow attack speed, the weapon gains no mobility on slide attacks and wall attacks.  You are also reduced to a walking pace while attacking. This way it would be very powerful, when it finally does hit.

Here are some stats that I think are fair.

 

Mastery Rank: 12

Attack Speed:  1.0

Physical Damage: 500 per blade (each blade attacks once per animation)

Impact: 2.5 per blade

Slash: 448.25 per blade

Puncture: 49.25 per blade

Crit Chance: 0%

Crit Multiplier: 1.3x

Status Chance: 2.5%

Slam Attack: 485 per blade

Slide Attack: 650 per blade *knocks down enemies struck*

Wall Attack: 1000 per blade

Stance Polarity: 

Base Polarities:   

 

TL;DR: Giant insect mandibles on your forearm.

Balance, you can still get crits with the weapon though.

I see what you mean, but 0% crit chance would mean no crits, like ever

You can't crit on this unless you put Maiming Strike.

This right here.   I'm trying to make a balanced pure power weapon.
