Pretty sure swords are used for condition stacks (crip-slash + gash) more than axes (eviserate).

Most sword bars are more for pressure. Both Dragon Slash and Crippling Slash bars are designed to make it easier to chain attack skills faster, though they do the job a bit differently.

Axe is awesome for spikes since it gets your deep wound off quickly without having to dork around with other conditions, and comes with a big packet of damage as a bonus. I also like how Evis/Exec (or body blow now, if it's a 13str war) is a powerful attack chain, but only takes two skill slots. This allows much more utility, like interrupts.

Hammer is still my personal favorite though, just because of the KDs, and the high critical hit damage.

I love the earth shaker aftershock combo definitely fun to play! but i still use swords and axes more often. In fact i hardly see any hammer warriors in general PvE which is kind of sad.
sword > axe > hammer (for no reason at all )

and don't froget smiting staffs rock the undead out there!

Yup.

'Cept....I think Eviscerate is the most badass skill of all time, and thus, I will always favor the axe.

Then again....maybe wands are a good weapon too? I mean...

Pretty sad that auto attacking with daggers is better than auto attacking with a bow....

Scythe for utility alone. It may be slow but high damage and the ability to hit three foes at a time makes it one of the better weapons. I'm not sure that I would go so far as to say best though. In fact I think the weapons are equally solid if you pick your attack skills well.
