A couple of questions about a mace for LLD PvP

So, i've decided to start farming a bit for LLD PvP gear and since i want to use a hammer/mace, i farmed up a ceremonial mace with the level requirement of 28.

I rolled it with alterations untill i got two nice LLD mods with best roll to boot:

"+1 to socketed melee gems" (highest +1 roll for melee weapons up to level 28)
and
"+11% reduced enemy stun treshold" (highest reduced stun treshold roll for weapons up to level 28)

Being quite happy with these rolls i regaled it and got a further "adds 4-9 phys damage" roll on it, so it currently looks like this:

Now, here's some questions.

*How many affixes are possible on such a weapon by default (i'd guess six)?

*Given that the weapon has 2 good and one decent (imho) rolls on it, should i exalt it to add another "natural" affix on it before adding further bench mods?

*i'm planning to get Elreon's multimod on it at some point and then add *+ x - y% damage" and "xy% faster attacks".
Since i'm guessing that such a weapon has 6 possible affix slots and that his multimod takes up a slot as well, that would mean that if i already exalted it and had 4 "natural" affixes on it, i'd be only able to give the multimod and another single affix on the weapon, is that correct?

*if the above assumption is correct, would i be better off spending the exalt on the multimod and just adding these two affixes from the bench?

Thanks in advance for reading and replying, if you have any further tips, i'm all ears.

+melee skill mod is a total waste for melee, I'd reroll. Secondly, make sure ur farming ilvl 36 to yield highest rolls. The easiest route to an OP melee wep is Prismweave unique belt + 1 whetstone + weapon traded to vendor. You'll get back a vicious roll (90-109 phys %) and try to regal hybrid phys %/attack rating. You can master mod something like 14-22 flat phys on lvl 28 weaps so that roll is also a very low tier.
you should read fightgarr's beginner pvp guide and the beginner's crafting guide. It has a lot of those questions answered

I will link you and a good mace that you can base yourself on.



Ceremonial has most damage but is the slowest, war hammer having less damage but more speed.
