well, swords might be your best bet since samurai and paladin can use as well.
Get as much EE as possible

Recommended amount?

Also how much base dmg should the weapon itself have? I.e [Damage: 24 to 243]

That's calculated using the ee of the weapon and the strength you currently have. Therefore it varies with pretty much everyone.

Get as much ee as your fg allows you or as much as you're willing to spend

I've seen some weapons with like 90% EE that had lower dmg then a 60% EE

So which should I get in that thing?

Prolly depends on the character you are shopping with. Trust the ee and not the damage.

the 90ee was a lower tier (level) than the 60ee.
If you are level 20, get a level 20 sword with as much ee as you can afford.
the level caps are here:

The type of weapon really doesn't matter because all of them average out to the same base damage. The only difference in that is the ammount of EE and level of the weapon.

Clubs are cheapest but you can only use them on 2 classes.
Axes are a good middle ground, sort of expensive but you can use them on 3 classes.
And swords are most expensive but you can use them on 4 classes and on the first 3 classes so if you pass your MQ you can still use them.

It really boils down to how much you want to spend.

Lmk if you have any more questions :)
