1. From what I've seen on Dual Blade videos/from other people, they do have fairly low HP. At 120 or so, they have 5600-6000 HP with 2k MP. Dual Blades also have no skills to reduce damage of any kind nor do they really have any party skills. They pretty much depend on heal, HB and invincibility frames in bossing.
2. Well, the idea behind any build is either to equip to the items you have or to maximize damage. DEXless if your damage-centered, low/reg if you just want to wear the equips you have.
3. More than likely they would give you all the SP from levels 10-30. All of the new events except for the class-specific scroll/magnifying gift quest and the offline cash prize will be able to be completed by a new level 30 Dual Blade. Why do I think this? Because it says that "once you have completed your first job advancement you will receive blah blah blah...". More than likely the new character that you get will be level 30 and already a Dual Blade so my guess is that these quests will not be able to be done. But if your all for leveling up fast and missing out on the beginning story with a few quests gone, I say go for it. But I could be completely wrong.
As for missing out on any mastery books, tornado spin can surely be skipped. It will save you a good 3900nx. But if you want to max our all of the other masteries, prepare to spend 32,500 NX.
