I personally use "For Great Justice!", the no-attribute W shout. Out of what you listed, Flurry, since with its 5-second duration, it's not much of a commitment and you don't need a second stance to get yourself out of it if you need to (like you would with Frenzy). Not a fan of Tiger's Fury on a Warrior because of the energy, commitment to Beast Mastery (albeit small), and disabling of non-attack skills.

So in short, I'd say "For Great Justice!" and Flurry.

You can use a sword to build up your adrenaline for your combos...

other skills you could use... "For Great Justice" or "To the limit"

^^ He was talking about Tiger's Stance, not Fury. I beleive Tiger's Stance is warrior skill. I believe it says something like "you attack 33% fast for x...xx seconds (I don't remember the duration). If you miss with an attack, tiger's stance ends."

If you use Tiger Stance you should probably bring Warrior's Cunning (is that the name?) for those Rangers and Mesmers that blind you, or Warriors that block and evade.

Of course another upside of Tiger Stance is there's no downside to it ending, so don't worry about Warrior's Cunning unless you want to be really sure you'll work in any situation.

To the limit is a really nice shout, you should try using that out.

Either bring For Great Justice or To The Limit, both are great for building tons of adrenaline fast. Also, use a Furious Hammer Haft. It can help with building fast adrenaline for a chain combo.

I'm a big fan of combining "To the Limit!" and Berserker's Stance, myself. I'll usually start with Berserker's, then hit TTL further in since I'm already building Adrenaline from attacking by then.

TTL is a Tactics skill, so bear in mind that it's not going to be as useful if you don't have any points in Tactics.

I usually use For Great Justice or Tiger Stance for my PvE Hammer Warrior. I usually take For Great Justice only if almost all my skills are require Adrenaline othewise I take Tiger Stance.

Tiger's Stance is weaksauce. Tiger's Fury with 7/9 BM and a zealous haft will work out to a much better increase in DPS than Tiger's Stance. The disabling effect doesn't matter in the slightest in PvE except for the fact it resets adreneline counters on non-attack adrenals. Also the energy you get from zealous is more than enough to sustain it unless you wanna use pointless tanking skills. Tanking ftl.
