Thank you, and about the adjustments:
* I was more interested in alliance-wide Sambas when I did more things with Alliances, but I rarely do things with more than a party these days. If I could give Alliance wide Sambas, I think the only time it would have helped me in the last two months was during one of the two Dynamis - Tavs I did. I think it's silly that they don't apply to the alliance/pets, but this game is filled with silly things. As far as Waltz adjustments, my google-translate-fu tells me that the JP community is at least on the same page as us about that. Everyone wants Waltz timers split.
The purpose of a forum like this one isn't to discuss how we play, but the ideal way to play. We all know how we play before we go to the forum, so we'd wasting our time if we didn't go there for something else. At the moment, outside Abyssea, support Dancer is just as strong and viable as it has ever been. The changes we beg for (splitting Waltz timers, etc.) aren't really incredibly relevant to the outside-Abyssea player, where a 500HP Waltz III is generally enough.
The problem is that no one needs support DNC at the moment. There are no more 6-person merit-style killfests, which is the place where support DNC really excelled. Even if there was, it's unclear to me that support role Dancer would be desired again. and MP is much easier to come by than it was at 75 (Refresh II, Ballad III, easy Ballad+1 instrument, AF3+2 pants for both jobs, Convert from Sub). It's too bad, but it is what it is. I'm still going to fight to make Terpsichore for a supporting role mainhand, but it's going to be a long fight.
