Looking for a role

I just reached 70 about a month ago. There is another swash in the guild who raids more than i can, and will likely always been in a better DPS group and have slightly better gear. So i have a few questions. 1) I am about to finish the Claymore quest (well here in the next month), is the 1H an automatic choice or are there any advantages of going DW? It seems that it is harder to upgrade the 1H, and there is less competiton for DW when we raid. 2) The other swash is spec'd out for DPS with the reach and style line. I was thinking of going with the debuff line. Is it worth it? And what should i take with it, i currently have the reach line. Thanks for any suggestions.

And what should i take with it, i currently have the reach line. I am personally specced potency/style testing it out for now, im still torn for this aa choise Thanks for any suggestions.

AGI/WIS is considerably better for Qeynos Kilij. I've parsed both STR/WIS and AGI/WIS and AGI came out 200-500 DPS more, consistently. Sailwind has a big effect due to the Kilij's 1.6 delay.
