I have searched through the forums and found countless chosen info about built and equipment, but not about weaponry. I am referring to a defensive snb chosen that needs to support 6-24men. I will tag all the available choices:

I added the 51 sc wep that gives regen, cause I heard from some ppl that they like it even without regen built.
IMPORTANT: Please justify your opinion
I can start typing what is my opinion, but I am opening a topic to learn yours.

To me, the BiS S/B combo is
[Shieldbearer's Herald of Anathema] with
[Sentry's Chaosaxe of Tyranny] or
[Sentry's Chaosaxe of Anathema] (strenght instead of regeneration, a bit more wounds/toughness).
I don't like the disrupt bonus of
[Sentry's Herald of Anathema] because you can easily have access to disrupt thanks to
Hold the line and I prefer the parry bonus of
[Shieldbearer's Herald of Anathema] to parry guard damage.
I tried a few times the
[Fortress Guard] but I didn't notice if I survived more during WB raid thanks to the absorb proc, so no reason to take it.
For weapons, I tried to avoid critical chance bonus because this is not my job as S/B to do damage. So, no
[Fortress Labrys] and
[Titan's Sword of Anathema].
Between
[Fortress Cleaver] or
[Sentry's Chaosaxe of Anathema], stats are pretty close. With the right amount of
Futile Strike and
Initiative, 1% reduction in being critically hit is not that much compare to 2% armor penetration reduction.

Thank you for your response. This makes sense indeed and I am leaning towards the same choices.

I just wanted to add that
[Fortress Guard] and is a very close second to
[Shieldbearer's Herald of Anathema] and that you cant go wrong with either one. So if you do not like scs, you arent gimping yourself much by taking the
[Fortress Labrys] and
