Scindo: Extra Damage vs Infected (pick versus Infected)

Fragor: Ignore Enemy Armor (pick vs Grineer)

Gram: Fastest, but lower base damage and range. (Universal)

Amphis: Jump Slam deals Electric AoE Damage (pick vs Corpus) << Lowest damage and charge damage, but higher critical chance.

They have diffrent damage stats, range, and charge damage.

IMHO: Against tough enemies it would be risky to charge in with melee weapon, whether it is Corpus or Grineer. Versus infected, on the other hand, you might need an edge over them, as they will try to swarm you and overwhelm with numbers. And this is why, over all heavy weapons, I picked Scindo.

Equipped with proper mods, Scindo is also effective againts Grineer and Corpus. You will need to charge your attack though, because all charged melee attacks ignore armor (as well as execution attack and stealth attack also ignores armor on target). Also deals tons of damage while charging, nuff said.
