NPC Fellows do the same damage with any weapon of the same type regardless of lvl. Only difference is in looks.
Just to expand on this; the only way to increase your NPC's attack is either through the Hydra gear set from Dynamis Tavnazia, the occasional couple items from the NPC NPC (lawl) in Ru'Lude Gardens. Oh, and of course, every level your NPC gains, his/her attack will go up.
Other than that, weapons are cosmetic only and will no way affect your NPC's damage.

So then is there really a point to give them a higher weapon if they do the same damage? might as well keep it at the first weapon i guess. booo and i was gonna upgrade mine
Mandibular Sickle looks a ***ton better than a Bronze Zaghnal.
A Darksteel Falx looks a lot better than a Greatsword.
etc.
Edit: Omg quoting next post, I'm psychic:

You know, this brings up a good question because I have upgraded all GTK levels for my NPC fellow (during inflation thank God), and I never really noticed a significant change in damage except for when I would do the promy quest in level 30 cap zone. She would do ridiculously high damage for being capped at 30, making me think the weapons do upgrade something, I'm just not sure what and to what degree.
Zero affect. See post above :)
