Best Weapon Memories for Veredicto in Blasphemous 2

When starting Blasphemous 2, I chose the Veredicto as my first weapon. The Veredicto is a large two-handed mace with a large attack radius at the cost of attack speed. But the Veredicto can be upgraded by unlocked Weapon Memories, so let's take a look at the best ones to pick for this weapon.
