No. There is a function called "Power level calculator" in monster lab if you have HVU installed.
You need PL750 to eliminate LGM
The cost for PL750 = hundreds of PL25 = 22xPL250
And it takes years to get what you paid for. So, take it step by step. all 25 -> all 250 > all 750, and so on
I don't think the ISK non-prefixed dark cotton cap is worth anything. Maybe 50-200k for ISK dark mage?
If there is still ISK dark mage who needs a prof part.
Shade of the Arcanist is used for landing spells, mainly being used in TW.
I only know hc_br is using this set.
People tend to use of the shadowdancer in Persistent

If you plan to be a mage, yes, staff. Weapons have the highest chance to get the correct prefix+suffix.
If it's subpar staff, then it's worse than Legendary staff with correct prefix_suffix. It's better to buy legendary one

You can gain prof 1 time each round for each type of spell. So, casting once per round is enough.
Casting T1 each round every day might be troublesome. You can only farm the prof 2-3 days before you're ready to play mage.

Ah, I missed the fact that it was an ISK item, my bad.

They're the same thing.
Edit: If you mean monster lab

Yes I mean in the monster lab.

is it a thing to raise monsters only raising relevant stats and ignoring resistances?

by raising monster stats we all make the game slower and slower, harder to play. It would be wise if none of us upgraded the monster stats, we all would be faster, breaking records of turn count, spending less time to grind for income. So is it a thing? you tell me. How strong do you want your opponents to be?

When selecting staff's - is a Destruction Suffix preferred over Focus? Why or why not?

For willow staff, yes.
You have enough mana when your level gets high or if you purchase EE (mana) perk.
If you have 194.x% accuracy, then you 100% land spells.
Hence, only the magic crit chance makes dif.
So, why focus? Destruction gives you about 15-17% MDB, can magic crit from focus do that? No.
