Asking for axe/shield build
Axe/Shield works well with an “Invul build” based on EP/DP/Sblock combinations, like this.
Does full berserk have survivability on wvw?

no
Seriously though for one thing the warrior shouldn’t rely on just one weapon set the entire time when we can lower our swap down to 5 seconds. That being said an axe shield build works well as a high dps burst option if you pair it with a greatsword (to gap close and build up adrenaline since you don’t use its burst skill) or the rifle (to start a fight by poking at range and allowing you do replicate evicerate burst but at range with killshot). Both combos work well if you want to focus on just doing damage. With builds like these you want to focus on using your burst skills often and amplifying damage, take the trait that gives crit chance against stunned opponents (bash into evicerate) as well as axe damage increase and cooldown reductions.
If however you want to use axe shield as a suppliment for a tankier build then pairing it with hammer (for the cc chain that compliments shield) or maces (a defensive option that isn’t shield) are good options. Grabing the shield and hammer/mace traits are good and you can use axe to burst when needed.

Axe shield / Greatsword
I use this build in spvp with a berserker amulet
You need to be skilled but it is possible to 1v1 any class… One mistake and you are dead
I have taken out bunker rank 45+ guardians within 10 seconds .. But one stability mistake and you are ruined. As for wvw PVT armor with berserker jewelry ogre runes
Paralyze sigil on shield is a must it gives you a couple more attacks with the axe.
Try something along these lines http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/warrior/?8.2|1.1g.h17|3.1g.h4|1c.7i.1c.7i.1c.7i.1c.7i.1c.7i.1c.7i|1i.61.1i.61.1i.61.1i.61.1i.61.1i.61|0.0.u18c.u68c.a6|39.7|5y.69.6b.6f.6m|e
At work so don’t have time to tweak it for you, but if you take that gear setup and those traits you can pretty much just change the weapons to whatever you like, I’d suggest axe/shield with a longbow if you want some good aoe capability.. it just axe/shield with a rifle if you want single target. That trait and gear setup has a good survivability with a rather high damage (6-7k eviscerates.. possibly higher depending on the oponents gear) mate ran axe and shield with this setup and did extremely well.
