Three Tempest-Related Questions

Alright, let's keep this simple. Three questions, and I'm expecting at least one answer answer for each question.
________________________________________

[b]1)[/b] I got an Angelic Buster charcter to Level 70 this morning, which means I have both the "Exp 30/70" bottles. I have seven other characters, all of them under Level 20 currently, so... which bottle(s) should I use on which of the following characters? ([i]If you could list a reason or two as well or even just want to tell me what you're biased towards, that'd be awesome... but I can't really force you to.[/i])
[*]Aran (male)
[*]Explorer (future Paladin, might be made into UA in future; male)
[*]Noblesse (pending Thunder Breaker/Night Walker; male)
[*]Kaiser (male)
[*]Battle Mage (female)
[*]Evan (female)
[*]Luminous (female)

[b]2)[/b] All three of the Tempest classes (Luminous, Kaiser and AB) get pieces of a Level 120 armor set for every ten levels on them starting at Level 40--is this a special promotion for these characters during the Tempest events only, or is this offer going to last the entire characters' lives?

[b]3)[/b] Is there really no better way to get Tempest coins any faster than Gale Gourds on a Nova-based character? I've been idling my Angelic Buster some days for several hours at a time just to get the coins, but I've still only gotten about 150, and the full Tempest Armor Set needs just under 600 ([i]sans weapon; I'm collecting the set for a perma-Beginner[/i] ).

If you've read this far, you're not obligated to at least leave a response, but I would appreciate you answering at least one of the questions with what you think.

Alright, so far the general consensus is 'boost up the Luminous'... fair enough. I'll use the Exp 70 bottle on her and the Exp 30 bottle on Kaiser just to make things easier on myself. Shame about the armor set thing, though--I don't think I have all the right things to get three characters to 120+ within two weeks, even with gratuitous 1.5x EXP Coupons. Oh, and...

Fair enough, but I enjoy my perma-Beginner wholeheartedly... I'd like to get it to around 100 or so for the set, and once that's done, maybe I'll spend a little cash to increase her inventory space and make her a walking storage box next time there's a sale on inventory expansions.

3. Gale gourds, PQ, event stuff like the board game.
