I think you want a short sword and weapon finesse unless you have high strength from your fighter. The only difference between a shortbow and a light crossbow is 1d6 dmg for the shortbow and 1d8 for the lcb, roleplaying choice IMO. Also I found it good for my rogue to have another damage type weapon with me, a mace for bludgeoning for example as, as you probably noticed, there are lots of enemies immune to piercing or with high damage reduction against piercing, which could be a problem if you're solo or your henchman is taken out. I haven't played far so I don't know the good rapiers but a short sword might be better if you have finesse and high dex
