Pole axe sucks until trans. It has low atk and 1 slot, super expensive. It all depends on how good Clasing Spiral is with these messed up server mechanics.

Spear skills dont suck, BB is just over powered, and the best 1h/2h swords are cheap and common(flamberge/claymore you can slot yourself from NPC) Gungnir[2] is viable for solo mvping weapon(although expensive) but a BB'ing 2hq knight with res tokens can out damage you at MVP.

Also BB gets 2hq which rocks for leveling and emp breaking/killing squishies in woe. Its pretty common to switch off shield if an asura monk is not around, equip a  dbl bldy claymore, 2hq up, and do some huge damage fast. Or switch to Muramasa/Golem carded Katana[4] to emp break.

VIT 99 is almost a must. But can be left around 80-90 base if you want super high agi to be more of a utility knight. Just make sure you have 100 total with the free +10 food buff. Some get 90 and up their LUK but that's hard to calculate properly. Take advantage of knights best ingame HP modifier and go 80+ base VIT.
INT avoid unless its a few left overs.
LUK a TINY bit can help but can be left really low.
STR doesnt matter a huge amount with these mechanics. Some knights STR is in the 50's, some 100+. You don't need to hit multiple's of 10 anymore for STR. The added weight helps a lot but kafra cards in castles negate this a bit.
AGI all up to you. Helps a lot for leveling a lot. Personally mine is at 12 base agi, i went 99 VIT to survive these Asura monks and precasts. There are knights with high VIT and AGI for utility(weapon/armor breaking, status spreading) but they die faster and have no chance besides hide to survive an asura.
DEX lowest i'd say you'd want is 50 without foods, I recomend higher dex(near or equal to your STR) so you can 99 easier, you can always stat reset lower once 99. 

Good news is Rideword hat will help BBing knights in there grind quest to 99, save some zeny/kp on potions.

A Hide Amistar bag(WOE/PVP) and +9 Greed Amistar bag(Pvm farming) is highly recomended aswell before the event leaves.A sight bag is nice to have too but 3 bags is a lot. The Hide Amistar should be your +1 priority if you WOE, and +9 Greed Amistar if you pvm. Its endgame equip that's good for every class and shouldn't be replaced by anything better anytime soon.

SimpleROhook is a must have if you BB(So you can see the gutter lines) it's legal and will improve quality of grinding.

Goodluck mate. Dont be afraid to ask questions this game complicated as -_-.

My build has BB, Pierce and Spear Boom. Brandish is a great skill by itself, I love that it has a long and wide reach and you don't have to reposition so often while using it. It falls short during WoE for not being able to hit twice over an area, which isn't so much a fault of the skill as it is a developer oversight. Your stats look fine, keep doing what you're doing just don't go over 90 with anything, it's a waste of points. You may also find yourself wanting to add either agi or luk to round out the build, go with luk as it gives multiple bonuses to atk and hit.

If you're going to WoE make sure you get 100 vit.

I may be completely off because I'm not too familiar with the renewal mechanics, but wasn't it discovered that resistance to stun is actually 97 vit? I remember this being the case years ago. Did it change?
