Is it spinattack2, area attack2, or polearm sweep 2?
Which one of these does the most damage because I plan to be killing like 10 nightsister rangers at a time with my 155-621 2.2 speed lva

depends on your speed mods. if you have around +15 speed mods then area2 is prob best, if not spin1 or 2 will give better damge per second i think.

I just answered his question
But use AE Dizzy ('till it sticks) first, then AE KD, and then spinattack2 to kill them.

Sweep2 - area sweep....duh 
Area2 - area dizzy + stun
Spin2 - area dizzy and slightly more damaging than Area2

Wrong ... Area 2 is more damaging than Spin 2 at speed cap ... and since he's using a 2.2 speed LVA well Area II is the best move ... better states effect and better damage
Spin II is useless now ... it isn't in my toolbar anymore

Area2 has a 2.75 damage modifier while Spin2 only has a 2.5 if I am not mistaken.

This is correct. Both of them also have a 3x delay mod, making area2 an all-around superior attack.
The link a couple of posts up has more incorrect values than it has correct ones.
