You only get traits of the class you are currently using.

So if I level a Marauder till the point he gets the increased fracture duration, I won't have the longer duration on dragoon?

[Fogel]

Nope.

Lancer traits only.

I have a question about diminishing returns. Since i am getting conflicting information about this, is it true or false that using stuns like leg sweep will give the tank diminishing returns on his stuns as well?

From my experiences, yes. If I were to stun a plume or eruption in Ifrit HM, theres a good chance that the tank's stun will be resisted if he needed to stun right after. Same goes for slows. If a monk were to use Haymaker and then I (Dragoon) used Feint Attack after, my slow cuts to 5 seconds versus the normal 20.

This is definitely 100% true. It works for all stuns from all people directly attacking the mob. That's why in fights where it's mandatory to stun an ability, we should avoid leg sweep and SSD unless specifically called for. For normal mobs, I'll throw in those abilities for extra DPS but it's not something you do on tougher bosses usually unless their attacks are completely avoidable.

xivdb.com is a great source for (most) of your item-hunting needs.

[Edeien]

I could be wrong, but I don't believe they can be obtained currently right now. In 1.xx, they were available by accomplishing a round of Skirmish. In 2.0 however, I have not come across any content that drops these. So I believe they will probably reappear to obtain again in a later patch, like the Moogle weapons which are currently unobtainable till 2.1 when the Moogle primal battle returns.

i need some advice. I currently have 2 amdapor armor, and the rest the AF armor, and i have the GC serpent weapon for lvl 50. Now, I'm trying to do the relic reborn quest, so my question is. should i invest in darklight armors/acc? cause i feel like i wont be able to finish the HM ifrit, garuda or titan if i dont have some darklight equips, or people might not take me in, in my current equipment. im asking cause i kind of want to save my tomestones for the 900 pts needed for the relic quest, but if i'm more likely not to finish the Hard Modes then i'll just invest in darklight.
