Do note that the grab is also a window into atleast a free light attack and that this adds up to the backbreaking damage.
This means that the grab is certainly a viable option when not at critical health, assuming you are trying to be unpredictable.
Also, whenever I face assassins as a fatman, I usually feint my left or right charged swing because those usually bait a dodge to the right or left. When the dodge is made and the action is dedicated I cancel into a demon's embrace that will hit 9 out of 10 times (when it's not a dodge to the left or right I swing and miss, adding to the idea that I "just swing untill I hit").
That said, if you play a mobile class, use your lights to spam hits. I find these hard to parry as variating your directions at a high phase is kind of tough and without the stance they are killing.
