    Excellent ideas and thanks for mentioning my thread!
    Hopefully these ideas won't get shot down this time by the devs.

    Dancer currently, doesn't get invited to any parties anywhere in the game. Maybe voidwatch for weaknesses but I haven't seen it yet. I pretty much play solo on DNC 98% of the time due to the fact that THF or NIN get into Abyssea parties, THF gets invited everywhere else pretty much.

    A DNC role these days is pretty much a solo one, unless you whine and whine and you find someone who is being nice that lets you in the party. (Which is rare) More attack options does sound wonderful.

    I picked up DNC post 75+ level cap.... it makes me sad and regret never leveling the job before then when groups loved them.

    Okay I was checking out some of the old FF games and... they should apply some of these to dancer.

    Dancer (Tactics)

    Slow Dance: Dance lowers enemies' Speed level by confusing them with slow dance movements.

    Polka Polka: Dance with vivacious moves. Lowers physical attack power.

    Disillusion: Dance lowers enemies' magic attack power by distracting them with a mysterious costume.

    Nameless Dance: Dance with unexplainable moves. Causes various abnormal status.

    Last Dance: Ultimate dance. Turns enemies' TP(normally was CT) count to 0.

    (FFX-2)

    Sleepy Shuffle: This dance will lull enemies to Sleep.

    Dirty Dancing: This dance, will allow the party to hit with critical hits within a time constraint.

    Carnival Cancan: This dance allows all party members to have double their normal amount of HP.

    MP Mambo: While this is performed, all allies can use MP freely at no cost.

    Tempting Tango: Inflicts Charm on one opponent.

    Just some Idea's of what dancer used to bring to the table... and why we loved them.

    Almost all are too powerful in a MMORPG.

    DNC should get:

    Quadruple Attack (more TP)

    Treasure Hunter III (RNG already gets this in the form of Bounty Shot so giving it to DNC wouldn't break anything)

    Change the Thief's Knife to THF/DNC.

    Add Treasure Hunter +2 to Charis Tiara.

    This way DNC has TH and a reason to be in endgame , but it's still one tier lower than THF so that THF won't be replaced.

    They gave RNG and BST Treasure Hunter III so why not DNC? It's not like it's going to hurt anything if they've already given it to other jobs already.

    As for thief's knife, it's a dagger and DNCs are dagger based. And if they also have TH3 then it only makes sense that they would be able to equip the thief's knife.

    RNG and COR are the closest things to thieves because of the nature of their jobs. RNGs hunt and scavenge. CORs are pirates... can't get get away with not having a way to increase drops.

    DNCs aren't there to "steal" stuff or increase drop rates.... They aren't gypsies. Uh, no offence to real gypsies. >.<

    Something along those lines is exactly why I was thinking they should have treasure hunter. Traveling shows, carnie folk, etc fits right in with DNCs image.
