Help me choose my Heirloom!

So, I've reached 31 for the first time. Gen 1 is over!

Problem is, I cannot continue, until I choose a weapon to heirloom.

Here are the four weapons I'm thinking about:

Glaive
Bec de Corbin
Elegant Poleaxe
Pike

Any advises? What would you choose? The Elegant is one of my best favorites, also it matches my character, but I would like to hear your opinions about this.

if you like elegant poleaxe, heirloom it

My best advice is to heirloom the weapon you like to use.

One of the advantages of heirlooming polearms is that the first heirlooms i usually the best, so you dont have to heirloo it 2 or 3 times before noticing a difference.

The only choice you give us that is even worth using is the glaive. So..either glaive or some polearm that is actually GOOD.

What's the problem with the Elegant? It's a nice killing tool.
Bec also kicks ass, problem is the length only, but if you get close..

But I agree, the Glaive rocks. That's why I can't decide between Elegant and Glaive.

great long axe was and long spiked mace were my fave when going poles.  Glaive is the best in that list.  I personally liked 2h more than poles longsword and mallet are great weapons.

My recommendation is to heirloom gaunlets or a piece of armor.  There is so much heirloomed stuff on the ground that its really the best use of your heirloom.

Hmm.. also I know it's stupid, but I care about style all the time.

Look at these two screenies I just took.

In my opinion, the Poleaxe fits more into that "Dismounted Knight" style, like the unit in M2TW.

But I have plans for a Polearm/Crossbow hybrid, he will look like a Rhodok, and I think I found what polearm I will use on him, the Glaive!

I think I've made my decision, Sir_Christo will get his Elegant Poleaxe to make him look even more stylish.  :wink:
