    yeah. boss mats cost a lot, There's a reason raising a blacksmith is costly and requires you to have luk farmer first.
    Farming bosses: Venena, material; lil empress horn 9~15k per piece used by blacksmiths
    York, material; York memo paper 550k per stack, used by blacksmiths
    Zahhak Machina, material; Twin Dragon Tail 20~70k per piece, used for Tier 4 Talismans ( not recommended, this boss has high mdef and pdef)
    Forest Wolf, material; Four-leaf Clover (idk the price), used by blacksmiths.
    Seele Zauga, break parts, material; Red Satin Fabric, High Grade Frill Fabric, used by blacksmith. Costs around a mill for every 10 I think..

    No need to use a luk farmer for farming these bosses

    no. element advantage is one-way only.
    but negative "damage to element %" stats on equipment can lower your damage against certain monsters.

    Thank you. Also, should I use a magic device with low atk, advantagous element or a magic device with high atk but without elemental benefit for farming materials?

    element advantage multiplies the final damage by 1,25. the difference in weapon atk would have to be quite large to cover that.

    dex raises hit rate.
    and you need to raise Dual Sword Mastery and Dual Sword Control to remove the negative side-effects of dual swords (reduced critical rate and stuff).

    You need critical rate. A critical hit (yellow dmg) never miss, so try to add more crit rate to your build (use equip with crt stat & crt food buff)

    so only str and agi won't cut it that's what you're saying right I'll have to put stat points into dex as well. Also any good equipment for lv 70 that will solve the problems of hit and defense for dw

    Umm no...? All you need is critical rate. I don't have a dw char so I don't know what equip ppl use for the crt, but my archer for example use bear hat (add gear), seele zauga & gespesnt ll (xtal), and also stat from the bow for the crit rate. Unlike mage, physical classes need critical rate to not miss anything when they fight. My archer is full dex but without enough crit rate he still misses a lot, so dex stat is not what you need here.

    when we create a new character it asks about repeating story or complete status which should I choose (I'm going for a farmer mage build ) oh and should I use a md or a staff?

    "complete status" updates the mission progress to the latest mission ever completed in your account.
    but you still start at lv1 and cannot collect the exp reward from the story missions.

    this can be useful for new players who didn't complete chapter 2, but from chapter 3 onwards you should always start from the beginning or will have a hard time grinding levels to catch up with your latest mission progress.
    yes, repeating the entire story is annoying but definitely worth it.
    depends on preference and situation.
    Staff has high single-hit damage and power, but MD is generally better at most things.
    i use a staff because that character is also a tamer and i need the weapon bonus on the pet heal skills,
    but otherwise i would have chosen MD.

    Easy mode, -aggro gear, lvl 130 at least crap load of revive droplet and tons of drugs to cover your hp.(over dosage leave a big hole in the wallet). After that grind and git gud to come back again later.

    special conditions, those can be different for each boss.
    HP Lock, Shell Mode, Invincible Mode or simply altered stats caused by Phase Shift.
