Now I have a question about weapons;

I've tried searching but I couldn't find a thread on it, I want to know the difference between the sword and the axe. I know that each one strikes every 1.33 seconds and some do different damage types, but could someone tell me basically what seperates the sword from the axe because I want to know if a sword would fit better in this build.

far as axes an swords go its all in ya style axes lean more towards crowd control.. swords towards dps and atacking a single foe less you count that horribl elite hundred blades ... and as far as ya build goes might wanna go swords cause ya strength is a lil too low ta use ya axe as main damage source
thergo ya should prob use galrath sever artery gash add poison .... and ya stances are fine though ya might want bonettis for energy justa thought but those skills are good fora dps stacker very nice for taking out big tanks.... but its al on how ya play GL and enjoy the game

Actually if you want to use Apply Poison you're probably best of with an axe. Fit Cyclone Axe in somewhere and use it in conjuction with Apply Poison. Suddenly you have a crowd of monsters poisoned! A classic combo.

By the way, is this for PvE or PvP? If it's PvE, I wouldnt recommend Frenzy, and Eviscerate is a good replacement for Cleave. Watch Yourself is pretty good and spammable, so think about that too.
