What will be the best weapon trait for PVP in the next patch? Nirnhoned, precise or sharpened?

I'm leaning towards nirnhoned because of the shield buffs, but most people think sharpened is better. Thoughts?

✭✭If you get a maul go with precise, extra penetration isn't better when you already have a flat 20% bonus with a maul (IMO); This will also help you with PvE too.不動の Steadfast - Unwavering

✭pve = precise or sharpened depending on your gear
pvp = nirnhoned for shield stackers or sharpened for the restDelta

Thank you for the referral, but I have read this already and the analysis is designed more for pve than pvp.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Honestly? Sharpened outperforms nirnhoned, which outperforms precise. Granted it all depends on your build, and what your goal(s) is/are. But for the most part, you're going to be wanting to invest in sharpened weapons.0 -

✭✭Nirnhoned with un resistable enchant. Stamina depends on your crit, if it's over 55% or so go sharpened. No point in giving up extra pen over crit that 99% of the player base will negate via impen and shields anyway.
Defending will be handy if everyone is rocking sharpened but it'll depend on your race, if breton for instance don't bother with spell resistance so defending won't be worth it, just go all out damage.PC Master Race
