    For PvE it's Dual Axes/Hammers, hands down. Most AOE attacks.

    For PvP it's fist or polearms. Fist probably best against other melee fighters, while polearms are the best for general PvP.

    (Dual) Swords/Blades rather suck at every occasion, but look the best - which is why every newbie usually picks 'em.

    The only thing vasburg has right on is PvE with axes/hammers. The AoE helps for grinding mobs. Also, Axes/Hammers are preferred for Territory War due to the doom skill (the dragon) that has a chance to put curse (take double damage) on the enemy.

    Fist is more of a weapon against anything except heavy armor targets. They're much more effective against mages or clerics due to their skill canceling shadowless kick technique: it leaves them more or less useless for a few seconds. They are not, however, good against most other melee fighters if they wear heavy armor. I've beaten fist users in duels 10 levels above my own using a sword or spear with heavy armor. Their attack power is simply too low against heavy armored targets, even if their attack speed is the highest.

    Sword and Spear are actually rather similar in terms of purpose in pvp and pve. They're really well balanced. In pvp, spear are slightly better over sword due to their range and skill selection (Back thrust>spirit chaser knack) (Whisk stab>Lethe stance). Though I hear swords will be buffed in future updates, so I don't know if this will apply in the future.

    In terms of player killing..well..WR in general aren't the best class for it. Mages and Archers are better at that than WR. WR are not a ranged class in general, so it's harder to get the element of surprise and land in the sneak attacks often necessary for a pk.

    to add on what blue said, spears are also very useful in territorial wars cuz of their doom skill which reduces the physical def on the enemies hit by it (if maxed reduces to 50%)

    Now imagine this picture in your head...spear warrior uses their doom skill on a group of robe users closed together, then the axe warrior uses his doom skill with range aoe attacks by archers equals bodybags on the floor lol

    Okay time to educate newbs.

    Firstly, Fists suck. Period. I'm sorry but this is just the truth. Your damage is way to low to get past the hierogram of another person. Even against Robe Mages. The Doom skill is a line of fire that goes past the person, nothing flashy.

    Spear Doom reduces 50% P.Def and 50% M.Def of everything in the AoE.

    Swords have the strongest Doom skill, with a 200% damage modifier instead of the normal 100%. Also, Dual Swords provide excellent DPS. Swords are probably prefered for PKing, with Axes to use the stun.

    Axes Doom, the Heaven Dragon Flame, gives everyone in the AoE a 100% increase in damage taken, it's not a chance.

    Warriors make great PvPers, on the ground. Two sprint skills, one which makes you unable to be stun or slowed. And any Warrior who PKs will learn to Stunlock, which is the basis of a Warrior.

    Please dont underestimate the power of axes when it comes to DPS and stun locking. The scariest wr would be a 90+ with a gx. other 90+ wr are just meh to me.

    You can be both, thats what I'm doing.
    Axe for PvE, Spear for PvP.

    Although I can use both Axe and Spear for PvP, I'll use Spear's doom skill to lower my opponents attack and defence by 50%, switch to axe to stun the hell out of them, and you should kill them in a couple hits with their attack and defence being lowered by 50%.

    Try the other way around. Axe doom skill curses them, and switching to spear would open all hell. 2x damage > 50% reduction in defenses, due to the exponential nature of defense vs. damage reduction.

    Correct.

    But 50% reduction in Attack and Defense + 2x damage after that = 1 hit *aoe*

    Thank you, i was beginning to think people didnt know what they were talking about. Swords are very good. Think about it. The only bad part about swords is they have lower dmg than axes/hammers. Having said that, if you use swords you will not only have alot higher base accuracy rate(not factoring in rings) and alot more crit. I know from experience that a sword warrior can kick the **** out of a werebeast a few lvls higher than the warrior cuz their dodge is better, they hit more often and have alot of crit.
