That's a great question.

I find Warrior pawns most useful for their knockdown/stagger capabilities, and not their damage output (perhaps surprisingly).

Warrior pawns can reliably disrupt Dragonroars and knock Condemned Gorecyclops completely off their feet when they wield high stagger weapons (like the Devil's Nail) and 2 Barbed Nails.

That ability is far more useful to me than a slight damage increase, especially against Dragons where you can have them writhing on the ground.

So whether you're talking about the Arisen or a pawn, I'd go with the Barbed Nails.
