Best weapon Lines each realm? - Phoenix Freeshard

So informal poll of which weapon lines considered best each realm.

Also give your opinion of best “special” line(i.e. VW-scythe).

Mid - Hammer (Special line? What special line?)
Alb - Crush (Flex)
Hib - Not sure (Large Weapon)

It really depends on situation/class/race.
For example, if you are a hero, there are still 2 choices.
If you do 8v8 and peel is your priority, going 50 spear is the best.
If you solo/smallmen or zerg(When you need to focus more on dmg), LW 50 would be better.

Utility-wise Celtic Dual is excellent on Hib, but its growth rates suck for damage.

Is the growth rate different than on live?
I used to forgo cs line for cd on my ns and it was very good.

I can't do a direct comparison since I'm not on live, but I think they're the same. On my Ranger on live and here on Phoenix Blades has higher growth rates than CD does (marginally so for the anytime chain, much higher for the rear chain), and it also has the sweet anytime ASR 2 part chain.
