Rusty halberds / 2h swords are choice weapons to use until you hit level 20 and they aren't a big deal anymore, as Endorra mentioned above. The level 8 spell Staff of Tracing will give you at least a 7 base damage weapon if you're left with nothing else for that level range.

And remember - going from level 1 to 4 with a magician with no Bardic mail quests feels like pulling teeth, UNLESS you are a human or dark elf with freeport to use. Janam & Rebby note passing are there to abuse at launch (were a part of initial retail game launch) and can take you to 4 without having to kill a thing. The exp dropoff after 4 is horrid, but no one cares because you already scored meditate & your first pet.
Those quests don't give appreciable exp on the green beta at level 1 even with the 1000% exp bonus.

I week ago I tested the similar quests in rivervale, and they gave more exp at that point, but despite being quicker to repeat they still couldn't possibly be a better option than killing stuff past level 1 or maybe 2.
