As long as you have a meele weapon that has a +100% damage syn mod(Dual Cleavers, Jaw Sword, Prisma Skana) you are doing the best you can as exalted blade is based only off your mods, not the base weapon itself. Dual Cleavers may be slightly better as the +62 armor armor will give a higher EHp than the Prisma Skana's +25 health, the Jaw sword might be better or worse depending on tha changes when stamina goes away but for now is falls a little behind. The proc and damage type of the explosion might also make people say that one is better than the other but for now those 3 are the best for using exalted blade.

as for the mods and crit vs elemental, Orgen Shater will give you a larger average dph than another elemental mod while true strike gives a smaller average dph bonus than another elemental mod. With a 15% crit chance(and the waves also haveing a chance to crit?) you can probably get god milage out of using berserk as well.
