I would recommend the harpoon. You can get it from the goblin army, and it is a surpisingly effective weapon at both close and long distances. It works by launching a harpoon connected to a chain, and you can't fire it again until it comes back. Even though it doesn't sound like all that great a weapon, it can actually deal hundreds of damage in seconds when at closest range. If the harpoon is being launched at close range, it comes back almost instantly after being launched. Basically making it a rapid-fire weapon, with each hit dealing 15-25 damage, not counting critical hits. It can deal a ton of damage if you can get close enough to anything you're fighting.
