Anyone got a weapon a new barbarian could use?

[Mattson]

I'm level 9 and having a hard time in Western Karana with my cracked staff. I only hit for 10 and I'm getting hit for 16. I'm sick of dying to blue cons.

Anything better than a cracked staff would be greatly appreciated. I have 107pp but need money for spells so I could probably only spare 50pp for the weapon.
