Space Marine 2: Sergeant Metaurus Bulwark Build vs the Vortex Beast - True Solo Absolute

In this run I mostly just wanted to do the Sergeant Metarus cosplay now that we can put Iron Halos on Bulwark. However I tried to avoid spamming Shield Bash the entire time because at this point we all know it's the strongest build. Instead I wanted to try using the axe a bit more. Honestly not the biggest fan of how much it moves you around. Also, the power stance gets really janky with the Vortex Beast 6 hit combo as you can see in the fight. We end up inside the boss at some points I think. The axe does let us sneak in some damage with Power Backstep between the slam and laser attacks if you cancel with the shield though. I still took Concussive Force though since it works for all melees, not just Thunder Hammer. Yes Bulwark gets Winged Fury as a built-in part of one of his best perks. Sprint attack on the Power Axe is pretty good since it does 1x damage of a light 1 while most sprint attacks do 0.5x damage. We can also take Discharge for more AoE. I don't like the Counterattack perk because it causes your melee combo to end after the Overhead Strike which feels bad. We don't need doubled damage to one-combo anything anyway on this class. There is also the potential to spam sprint attacks by cancelling with the shield. I tried it out a couple times and it can be useful. I need more time to do it as a part of normal gameplay though.
