What would you guys think is the best "favorite weapon"
for a devastation berserker?
Weapon choice for Zerk.
Devastation is not much about defense, so instead of the usual polearm, I'd say axe.
Flails are quite nice too!
I go with Anume.
Axes, especially since there's quite wide selection of them.
Yea, axes are the better choice. I just have a thing for flails.
What would be a good path to take then if the Zerk is really interested in polearms?
I go for axes as well, because thoise are used mostly for the dam/hurt output- just my two cents, I usually only use a polearm vs. rangers and warriors- even though at times a shield axe/flail combo could work. flails could be very nice depending on a race combo.
Fury is the two-handed or smaller-sized zerk path
I went spear on Rhompt and regretted it. Wish I had gone Axe. Do axe!
Go mino fury. Two two haneded axes. It's crazy
Exotic.
L-A
Main: Axe/flail/sword-spear
offhand: exotic
Mino axe. Ogre flail. Demon sword exotic. Off hand flails or spears
I don't know how your race would change your weapon choice, it was more specifically for which class you are fighting.

My inner voice.
Ohhh just was my choice for the selection of the dev perk.

My first post to said discussion made sense. I was just elaborating to the dev selection.
Race and cabal are huge influences
Trib: axe or flail
nexus: axe or polearm
wm: mace, sword, flail
Watcher: flail or polearm
syndicate: probably polearm
Race plays a larger point too.
goodie: love swords here. Bastard, the new heron marked
demon killer. Many easy to get and very viable choices
Neut: forgemans hammer, power hammer, hells fury, demon claws
evil: soulblight, storm/mournblade, blood filled voulge, reaver
Too manu factors. I say h2h.
Axe/Flail is the best for general purpose, except opting for cursed polearm vs melee, except blademasters, who would still dual wield against.
To go further into it, Rib of Shudde M'ell and Gasteride's flail are what i'd hunt for first, and obviously Blazing Baridache or Hell's Fury for polearms.
I'd save your power expertise until you've been at 50 long enough to know who your biggest threats are, so you're not selecting a weapon that you won't be using in the fights that matter most. If you don't have the patience for that, I normally would opt for polearms.
