In pvp i guess it's the 2h sword because of the kb and kd's and the really nice passive skill like critical increase and damage return.

PLUS

The buffs which greatly improve you phys. and mag. def will surely bring a tactical advantag against your enemy.

Sucks to level with a 2h sword warrior thou.... :/

Well, I can't really tell much bout these weapons, but I'll try it!

1; Dual axe: I've voted on it, 'cause I have char with it and IMHO it's a great build to play with. You won't deal as much damage as a 2h sword with same gear, but it's fun! For different enemies you should use a different combination of skills.
e.g. for a non agro you can use the 1st skill first because it is quite slow to blow it, so the non-aggro won't hit you till that. For aggros I prefer faster combos and swings and then use the blowing thing when they're stunned.
[BTW: it's a nice thing to stun the enemy and use the 3-swing combo, 'cause it damages +50% on a stunned enemy! :shock:

p.s: IMHO it's much fun to play with a dual axer, and you'll be a very good tanker.

2; 2h sword: I have mixed feeling 'bout them. Their damage is awesome for a str-build, so it's quite good for soloing (It CAN'T be your main goal in europe!), but it can be unpleasant in a party. Its knockdown can be so annoying for wizards/'locks , even for some other classes!

3; s/s: Of course this is the warrior type which deals the smallest damage, but if you get a cool shield you can be a perfect tank!

4; Xbow: they can deal a decent damage from a distance, but can't really play as a tanker, rather a puller IMHO.
