Personal recommendation: I would try to keep 2 combinations available at all times.  Sword / Shield and a 2H.
 
Reason:
 
If you are the main tank, you will probably be better off with the sword/shield combo to prevent more damage and also use some of the shield abilities to block for others.
 
If you are not the main tank, you will probably be better off with the 2H to deal more damage.  Also, I'm not exactly sure how power abilities / weapon delay interact with each other but if what I think is true happens to be correct, then you're probably better off with a slower weapon.  What I think happens is that once your weapon swings, the delay begins counting.  If you use an ability during the delay portion of your weapon, then the ability occurs (while the delay for the weapon is being counted) and then when your ability connects, you swing your weapon if the delay on it has completed.
 
I wouldn't mind hearing from warriors / shadowknights who have tested this to see if it's true.
