1h + Shield. Main sources of dmg are Revenge and Shield Slam (but you get this @40 lvl). Shield Slam is hardest hitting single target ability and requires Shield. Your revenge activates after you dodge, parry or block an attack and without shield you have 0% to block, so it activates way less. If you use Shield Block you will get constant resets on Revenge, which allows you killing stuff quickly.
Coppied from other threat about war leveling (many of this abilities will not be available, you can use Thunder Clap on ST too if you have nothing else to do):
Revenge is best rage/dmg ability by far. You can activate it by using Shield Block (which also boosts your Shield Slams).
Prot war uses priority system, not fixed rotation like prot pal, etc.
ST: Revenge > Shield Slam > Devastate > (70+ rage Heroic Strike)
AoE: Revenge > Thunder Clap > Shield Slam > Devastate (70+ rage Cleave)
Heroic Strike/Cleave are so low because they cost a lot more rage than they show in tooltip (they prevent you from generating rage from your next auto attack - which grant about 10-20 rage)
