I use them to stagger perfected initially with the heavy attack then drop the axe unload super then pelt with heavy usually does the trick if other team members do likewise some seem to just want to pepper away at their shields with a mediocre primary or the axes lesser attack then the perfected kills them almost instantly and they sit there expecting a revive while surrounded. Respawn and use a splicer key.

Yeah, don't, but for exploder shanls, make sire the axe is really flaming, because then the shanks will just disintigrate.
