Other then that u posted the same build that has been posted several times in this thread alrdy.

Strat I've used is to have two weapon helms. One with Sup. rune and one without. Just swap helms for a sudden 75 hp burst. Can't beat that damage output and the swap time is worth it. More dmg and crit and then you've got your stop-loss in place. Good times.

You can't change armor during a PvP match.

I like it, I don't know why.
@OP, PvE builds and general stuff is in the sticky.

Would +3 for Cleave be pushing it too far?
I haven't given it enough love lately but if there were one skill in GW you could describe as solid it would be Cleave.

No, it would be Distracting Shot!
But Cleave is a pretty alright elite when it comes to PvE.

Someone needs to post a good DECAPITATE build. That is the only axe elite I've used and it was fun...unfortunately I forgot my build and it probably failed anyway...

If you have gwen Brawling Headbutt is useful, and if you're using For Great Justice, Enduring Harmony helps (near constant high adren skills for 30s)
-clearly for pve

+5 for Cleave!
In PvE, it works out far better than Eviscerate. I can almost always get 4 ADR before a target falls over dead, not so much with the 8 ADR for Evis...
Evis owns in PvP, Cleave is just a solid, dependable elite that does what Warriors do best... BIG DOMAGE! Pair it up with Dismember and you're ready to rock!
[ EDIT ]
Mending Touch > Plague Touch for you, but Plague Touch > Mending Touch for me. Why get rid of a condition when I can TRANSFER IT? More bang for your buck imho. That and my Warrior started his time in GW as a W/N. Grenth <3's Warr's.
[ 2nd EDIT ]
Fixed. My memory is getting rusty... haven't used Evis in a while... XD

Decapitate is alright so long as the user is used to weaponswitching but you still lose all adrenaline so Evis still wins.

Alright by what standard? Alright in PvE means practically everything, and it's practically useless in PvP.

Because you need 4 Curses to transfer 2 conditions, which means no 13-14 split for yoo.
(Slamming some noob AB Sin's Temple Strike back in his face does have its charm. )
EDIT @ Tyrael: seeeeriously! I'll settle for 12 Strength

The updated version of Quivering Blade no longer needs a /N secondary to use effectively on a Warrior...
I can still get a 14/13 split with a Major Strength if I absolutely have to. It leaves me with 600hp; I can have it both ways - HA!
And Decapitate BLOWS. I used to think that it was nice. Lotsa damage. But it completely shuts you down. You lose all energy and Adrenaline. You can't even IAS your way back fast enough. If it isn't used as a killing blow, you can pretty much count yourself out of the fight, and if it was used for a killing blow, good luck getting to the teammate who is about to rez the one you just Decapitated - you have no energy or Adrenaline to either use an IMS or an interrupt = Epic Fail.

Decapitite doesn't work as a killing blow anyway. You need to hit them again (with something big like BB or Executioner's Strike) to trigger the DW. Problem is, you've got nothing left, so you can't really spike.

Decapitate should be tweaked in the next skill update. Neither PvE nor PvP use it unless you are just messing around. It's a fun skill to use in my opinion unless your objective of having fun is winning. Overall, Eviscerate takes the cake because it allows greater DPS than other axe builds.
