Can we reduce Dancer's waltz cool down time please?

[vienne]

God such discussions, such utter waste of keystrokes...the reading one must endure on these forums. Cant we just be constructive instead of making 4 posts over one sentence that doesnt have much to do with the thread topic?
The situation DNC is in now, allows the job to pull less hate. I do get hate from tossing to many WaltzV though.... so if you would reduce the timer on waltzes it would make it harder on the tank. There's also the problem of not being able to gain fast enough tp to effectively use waltz. Unless you go /sam which makes you extra squishy again.
And no DNC has other traits then being considered a healer. Does anyone still remember the days of SMN and RDM (Yeah in alot of cases they're still asked to do this by those stuck in the cavemen era) where everyone was complaining that all RDM and SMN were asked for was as curing jobs. Didnt we all just hate that? You want to play a job for what its ment for and DNC isnt ment to be a healing role.

The devs have previously said, shortly after the introduction of Contradance, that they had no intention to further augment DNC's healing capabilities, as they wanted to focus on the fact that DNC was a DD job.

They later also said that DNC is a support job, not a DD job.

So make of it what you will.

To the guy who said WHM has things to deal with such as 'spell interuption', 'silence', anything else?

DNC works on the frontline, and frontliners have to deal with paralyze (which is a bitch when HW doesn't remove it), stun, and a whole list of debilitating status effects.

The argument you gave was completely null, all jobs take hate, and all jobs have certain status ailments that stop them from doing their job.

As a DD, Slow is something I really hate, remedies don't get rid of it if your not /DNC.

Yep. Nothing I love better than some WHM, safe and sound 15/+ yalms away from the target, who cannot understand priority for things, while I'm in melee range, trying to heal/cure myself and the other DDs, but can't because Healing Waltz keeps on getting paralyzed.

Paralyze and Amnesia are brutal. Silence is easily removed with echo drops, paralysis the WHM can remove easily, too, and they don't care about amnesia.

Of course, DNC gets shafted on a lot of things, and I fully expect the "I have never played DNC but I'm gonna go ahead and tell you why it's OP without understanding how it works" crowd to show up and get me banned for expressing an opinion.
