Well, i used to play with a +3 Long Maul, its easy to play seriously, when you swing it, people gets mindfucked, because your swing will be a delaying hit, which makes people confuse.Also mostly at first hit, it knocks you down,and you can land another it, its pretty useful with heavy armor. But the problem is; They re not dying! You nearly got no kills at the end of the map even on siege! If you go for a STR build then everyone blocks you easily then spams you to death,if you go for agi build no one will die until you land 3 hits on the head! Buff buff buff!
edit: also crushthrough of it is a complete bs after the last nerf.
