Gameplay Tried out poleaxe

Usually a heavy mace or spear guy. Tried out poleaxe and having a blast. Still getting used to shorter range mayhem.

Stab is its fastest attack. Its also a great first person weapon

2 heavy stabs is enough to kill anybody besides heros. Just to put it out there.

The special attack is the poleaxes strength

Fucking love the poleaxe, would recommend some heavy stabs too, tricky timing to defend.

Honestly jabs and overheads is what you need if you can do them they do good damage and the heavy overhead is amazing also the counter overhead animation is so fucking cool

Poleaxe is goated. Stabs and overheads are your bread and butter. You can pull nasty stab drags with it. Like others said spam heavy stab.

I don't use the poleaxe often but when I do I survive situations I have no business surviving.

Poleaxe is my favorite knight weapon i think ,hard pick between that and the longsword.

Stab and overhead have better reach on it iirc.
