if you dont need stun then you need to decide if you should use fan dance or sambas. i care more about living then killing fast (unless you have an empy you're not solo-zerging anyways). but i would agree with those who can build awesome haste sets because fan dance is only completely necessary for stuff that does massive damage (if you dont have a brd using sentinels scherzo). im not talented enough at dnc yet to get away with not using fan dance, but if it was my main job that would be a good goal to have.
i'd think most people lvl dnc like me, just to solo easily. so cap gear haste (24% is super easy and you can still have a ton of dual wield, 25 cap is wasteful imo) and use fan dance when needed. haste samba is a luxury so merit step acc and use stutter step when you NEED to stun with violent flourish. better to take your time then to die :P
