I would say swords as well cuz if you have gm parry a decent sword will do alright damage if you want to use a shield. And it is amazing the amount of damage a good BA will do.

imo macing is the best, to me it can go through reactive pretty well, fencing isnt good nomore cuz enchants r gone, but u can still use it if u perfer, and BA on swords is good to but i like my old fashion war hammer just fine , watever floats yur boat man, it depends on what u like the best (not wat is the best)
