All good suggestions if you have the play to afford them. Some cheaper
suggestions:

1HB: Dwarven Mace, not magical but you can get it for free in Crushbone
(or pay maybe 20P elsewhere)
1HS: Mino Axe till you can afford something better. If you need a
magic weapon get a tentacle whip. (both cost like 5P)
Peirc: Fine Steel Spear will serve you nicely till you can get a
Dragoon Dirk.
