For my part I prefer Axe/Axe. Whirlwind is just awesome, and the main attack with the axe deals some serious damage and is way faster than 2hand. Ability 2 give some nice vulnerability bonus. So I use them all the time. Off weapon I use the mace/horn combo to receive some nice warhorn buffs, when I need them.
IMHO the 2hands are just to slow, and spaming 100 Blades can’t be the solution
So what is your choice?
