It's probably known already, but droprate for sweetwater equipment is still low. Drop buffs/boosts doesn't affect the droprate of them either. At least when there's a 2x event going on, the mesos that comes out of it doesn't get doubled. I guess on average or the luck of me, I can manage to find 1-2 sweetwater equips in a month. At the very least though, I can always stockpile enough cubic blades (and other materials) to be able to craft a cube every 1 or 2 days.
I've been doing Commerci trades on 3 characters with a Merc, WA, and an MM. Merc kills all of them just fine while activating Elven Blessing for stance and I'm usually able to kill the green or blue Livy before it wears off. I switch Mihile's link skill between my WA and MM. My MM has no problem killing anything either, and before stance wearing off. My WA has a bit of a tougher time killing the green Livy, despite it being more funded and having more range than my MM. I can still kill it with about 3/4th of the time left, but stance wears off by then, and I become a super-KB battering ram target. Though, I do notice that not all the triffling wind arrows hit or do much, and the invincibility frames for Livy doesn't help it either... So I find that hugging Livy and just shooting from there does is more effective than shooting at a distance, even though it drains pots and you can still get super-KBed. So, it's also pretty annoying without auto-pot and auto-loot. At higher trade points, you can't manually pick up everything without wasting valuable kill time on the monster waves or bosses. Even at the end, 10-20 seconds might not be enough time to get everything.
