1. Any job can participate in BCNMs, but DRKs have a small advantage (Especially in BCNM40) with Stun. HNM DRK does stun/spirits withing, sam does spirits within. Nothing spectacular from either job really.
2. They wear most of the same equipment until lvl 69, when DRKs upgrade to Hauberk, but the cost is relatively the same. SAMs have Ochi's Kote to buy in the lower lvls, DRKs have ABS-DEX. Both need to load up on accuracy gear and eat pretty much the same foods.
3. Personally I can't stand not having mp, so I gotta say DRK. But I have a lot of fun playing SAM/RNG.

I cant really say for the first question but I'd assume its about equal. I'd say Samurai can be more expensive, but they do share alot of gear like snipers lifebelt spike necklace/ryl guards collar earings haub, ect.. i'd say sam can be more expensive earlyer on only because of kotes but imo they are the same just depends on gear you want/can afford and if you factor in looking your job into gear aswell.
I have a 43 DRK and a 55 SAM both are quite enjoyable but i prefer sam because running two SC keeps you busy and you dont have MP so chance of having to heal is very low, thou magic can keep you busy but like I said you'd have to heal it back. Also one thing thats great about sam is if for some reason you acctualy had to heal your own HP you will have 100% tp right after you do. plus you got the Katanas ching factor... They are both very enjoyable and do great DMG but overal SAM is my choice thou I may be a bit biased
