I'm a big fan of polearms; but, I don't remember anyone using them. I'd have to go with Gil Galad's choice of a spear. A very versitile weapon. It can be braced against a charge when on foot; or, used for charging when on horseback. It can be thrown if you have more than one. Does anyone know if Gil Galad's spear was a longspear or a shortspear? (please give source of info' or support your claim). If he uses a longspear, I'll get my polearm. A mace is also a fine weapon. It's effective against most defences.
