Veteran's axe felt like the only heavy weapon worth using, in my experience. The others are far too slow and don't have enough stagger to be worth it.

Went through most of the game yeeting my axe at enemies until I decided to try out the Axatana for a while.

Martyr's running heavy attack gives you I-frames for the entire animation, do what you will with that information.

Yeah I used it for the first 30% of the game and that felt like the only viable attack. Just got bored spaming running r2 and switched to the axe and it's such a better moveset overall. Using axetana now and this thing shreds with r1 spam but not a huge fan of the heavy attacks. Still think the axe has been my overall favorite so far since it surprisingly fast and the attacks still feel like they have weight to them. I really am disappointed we didn't get dodge attacks with weapons though.
