have rarely seen anyone using this axe. Because it is hard to use.
the only way to improve it’s to change the second heavy attack to a horizontal swing like the first one, remove the third one and just loop 1 and 2.
Considering the move has 0.01 hitmass that would be a nerf. They should probably just make that move have 8 hit mass like the push attack, so it has some point besides ‘if you run brutal momentum’. That’s just more reason to spam light attacks anyway.
If you could loop heavy 1 and push attack and have decent horde fighting without brutal momentum this axe would have some value. It’d probably still want brutal momentum anyway, but at least there wouldn’t be literally 0.01 hitmass cleave on the heavy attack 1 the times it doesn’t activate. Its really weird the move has a better cleave damage distribution than the normal heavy attack, but it is literally impossible to make the move cleave without brutal momentum.
You could quickswap and keep spamming horizontal heavy but that’s one heck of a way to get carpal tunnel, or just use push attack/guard cancel but it’s not too efficient or flexible.
So yeah, considering the horizontal heavy is the only move that can reasonably clear horde it’d be nice if it’s easier to access without having to do some hand gymnastic stuff.
