I really hope this makes the crystal axe useable later in the game. I absolutely love the look of it, but it feels like I’m fighting in a pool.

It does sound like combat will be better, finally being able to fight in slopes without mods is a big bonus.
New Mechanics:
[…]
- New skill: Perfect Dodge Roll (Dodge an attack that would have caused you damage and get a % of stamina back)
[…]
Combat Changes:
- Perfect Block no longer cost stamina
- Reduced movement speed penalty on Battleaxes, Sledgehammers, and Tower Shields
- Vertical fighting improvements, now easier to hit enemies in slopes!

Perfect parries no longer using stamina is big. Most of Valheim's combat has been trying to get out of the way from attacks but now it sounds like you can tank hits with the right timing.
