| There are some heavy poles you can buy, but your question doesn't have a simple answer. Against groups, the spells, such as fire nova, inflict by far the most damage. The question is not what the most powerful weapon is, but whether or not you can get it -- they are not easy to find.
Also, swords are faster than poles or spears. I had a lot of success with the dwarven axe of winter, because it freezes your opponent for a moment, so he can't respond. If you get your timing right, you can kill him right there -- whack, whack, whack ..... You can also face, say, four opponents, and whack each one as he wakes up. They keep the ones further back off you (back up against something).
There is no monster melee weapons that wipes everything out.
