What's a better weapon for Elc? A Sword or Spear??

I have not finished the game, but I have noticed that the best weapon so far for Elc has been the Axe. The sword would come in a very close second and the spear would be the last, but the choice is really up to you the player. I personally like the weapon with the highest attack level and spend hours leveling up the same weapon over and over to get different stats with them. so ultimately it is really how you want to use the character.
