I would rather have the plus to hit and damage.
There is this 2d12 great-club that can be taken from the Minataur if you rez it with Glut (NPC).

I prefer using reach heavy weapons for use with the Pole-arm Master feat (currently provided in a mod, but is a basic handbook staple). Gives a bonus action attack and a reaction attack to anything that comes within range (10" for me...and so cool when it kills an enemy on "their turn")
I further prefer the pike for its stabbing animation (Got hooked on this with "Tall Grass", my Barbarian weapon in Pillars of Eternity 1).
So go with what is immersive for you.
