arent spirits weak vs the Earth Dmg? I think thats why my dervish was cutting thru them in like 125+ dmg per hit @ pvp weekend.
aside from that, and in line with the above posters- icy would allow you to use 'conjure frost' while still being the "VS the least popular" in the armor department.
Fiery and Shocking, obviously, would also combine very nicely for any kind of "conjure element" skill and have a few more added perks than icy due to skills such as Mark of Trogdor, and Glimmering Mark, etc... but as they say, these are the two most common elemental armor types found in PvP elementals.
It all depends on your build- thats really the bottom line in it.

Fiery is the best for prophecies. If you fight someone who is good against fire, they are usually good against other elements anyway; just use physical in that case. While that, more creatures in tyria are afraid of fire (only few and fire island titans are well-built against fire).
In faction, I am not very sure. If I remember right, there aren't specific weakness in almost all of them. But places like urgoz etc, are afraid of fire, so I heard.
In Nightfall, I am assuming ice going to get better (desert after all).
This mean, fire is both good in pvp and pve.

Most pvp warriors use Gladiator's Armour. aka 80+20 vs physical. So sundering would reduce it to 80 al, but only 20% of the time. Elemental mods, would hit 80 al, ALL THE TIME. |
*Shakes head*
Ebon FTW
Though I prefer vampiric + mending for my Sin.

Should I change to earth still even though I spent all this money on sundering?
I've been hearing alot of people say on the forums and in-game that ebon is the best mod. That has always puzzled me. I would thing fiery would be best in the shiverpeaks and icy would be best in the desert-but I haven't done any reaserch on it.
As far as vamp. mods go, I'd love tham on a sword or axe with a +attack speed boost + mending. But so many people make fun of mending warriors I havent tried it yet.

I'll sum it all up and add a bit from my own knowledge for your benefit 
Fiery: Pros - Good for prophecies (i think), look cool (FDS, i mean, you can't tell for other weapons), Elementalist spells like Mark Of Rodgort own with fire weps.
Cons - Most Elementalists + some Rangers have pyromancer/the ranger one (drakeskale?) so the damage is reduced.
Icy: Pros - 15k can get you a nice perfect, cool looking IDS, Spinal Shivers Necromancers will allow you to interrupt really fast, Not many Elementalists/Rangers have Hydromancers armor/the Ranger equivalent (frostbound/fur-lined?).
Cons - Um... ... ... Ah! They're not as useful in the Southern Shiverpeaks.
Ebon: Pros - No one likes (or really apprieciates) Ebon weapons, because Fire is so much more 'leet', and this makes them slightly cheaper, less Elementalists have Geomancers armor, and I don't think there is a Ranger armor specific to preventing earth damage (Although they still have a large boost to elemental damage in general)
Cons - Not many things are weak against it.
Shocking: Pros - Glimmering mark/thunderclap is good with shocking weapons, avicara (they're a big pain in the ---) are weak against it.
Cons - Many Elementalists have aeromancers armor, and Rangers have the eqivalent (studded leather?)
Well it's my Warriors first birthday today (September 30) and I got a Jungle Troll
!!!!!! I'm happy.
