Crank bolt - Civic 2020

Started a wet belt replacement, the crank bolt is super tight. Ive ordered some weighted sockets to try and get it off but the tool we ordered (with the large Hex to hold the pulley) has twisted because its that tight. Anyone had this and found a way to get it off?

AND a sufficient compressor. I've always used a IR 3/4" impact (the normal 3/4" 19mm socket is heavier than a weighted 1/2" 19mm). Ripps them all off quick.
