Hey

at this present time im collecting / making a wide selection of axes for my wariror [have sunerdering, vampiric, furious, zeleous] i just need an elemental one....but i don't know what to go for :S

fire? icy? ebon? i just don't know...the reason for this is to beat any defence against physical damage my oponent may have

so what im asking is....i know all have strengths and weaknesses....but which one is most popular / effective in general???

When it comes to Elemental mod most of the time its just a guess, like you said you use it to bypass the physical armor.
But when it comes to using it against a ranger or a ele for example, before the fight you can never know what armor bonus they have.
The armor bonus people use mostly in my opinion are Icy on rangers (frostbound) fire on elemantalists .If i had to choose i would choose Ebon.

I like Icy to activate SS, but Firey will activate mark or rodgort.

Edit: SS = spinal shivers

i dont really like ebon b/c their is no conjure x for it and there seem to be tons of earth eles now. my best guess would be shocking

Ok if conjure is something to consider, i would say shocking, since most in pvp is fire and some water snares,but with ritspike common now, most casters carry +shocking shield

Personally, I like icy mods. For some reason there seems to be a lot more of the other elements to me.And it's really the only time I can use them.

Yeah, I'm still waiting for my Conjure Dirt skill. (Name's a joke, but really have been wondering for a while.)
