I just started my fighter, but have been pretty perceptive about the game.

Right now I am level 2X and love tanking. Since I was before a cleric the damage of the 1 handed weapon is still greater than the clerics so I'm just used to it. Plus getting a +7 1 handed weapon is comparable to an axe.

Now, when I get to higher levels and need to PVP, the axe is the way to go. Like previously mentioned skills go the same speed no matter what weapon type you choose.

So in the end my honest opinion would be carry two(I can only say that because I never had difficulties with money). One for tanking and one for damage dealing.
