Dancer was my main in XI, and I say it at least once a week to anyone who will listen that I want dancer in XIV.
What made it fun in XI, though, was that it could do a bit of everything and was incredibly versatile, which unfortunately isn't something we really have in XIV. With the defined roles of tank, healer and dps it just wouldnt fit.
I would like to see it be a melee healer though as others mentioned. Thats what it was SUPPOSED to be in 11, but the cooldown on waltzes and shared timers made that difficult, and SE didnt seem to want to relent on that :/ A melee healer who focuses on buffs/debuffs while being up close sounds great.
Somewhat related, since I could see it coming off a class that also branches into thief...lets look at Thancred. I think he states somewhere in game he's a bard but...he's clearly not. We see him leap around and throw daggers. There's also a screenshot for 2.2 that shows him with TWO daggers on his hips, which I dont think he has currently?
Gladiator does have daggers, but since ARR came about, they've been making them less and renaming some. There's plenty of other hints in the game there will be a dual dagger class- just whether this class leads into dancer or not is another matter though.
I could totally see dancer story involving those dancers in uldah and costa not being REAL dancers.

Sorry I'm not from the Final Fantasy Fandom tho I'm as on board now as I'll ever get. I'm Forgotten Realms material. So would this dancer actually be dancing? If they do males count me in. I've always wanted to be a drow male in Eilistraee's convent.

I only know dnc from ffxi but they did dance to use their abilities. Weaving 'forbidden magics' and such in.
I hope if they add it to 14 they actually get special melee animations. I was sad in 11 it would show Lilisette dancing as she fought and moving all elegantly, but the players just used the default dualwielding animations (which as a hume, were particularly boring)

I loved Dancer in FFXI! I picked Bard for my main in FFXIV mostly because the support/DPS role is so similar. I don't know exactly how they could balance it with everything else in the game right now, but if they figured it out and implemented it on a later expansion, I would pick it up in a heartbeat!

Yes I would play one, actually that's the class I would like to play most of all existing and possible future classes.

Yes, I want to see my catboy dance :rolleyes:
-
If dancer was added I would totally play it ><

I feel like dancer would be a great addition with the inevitable Al Mhigo expansion pack, it really feels like something that would have developed side-by-side with monks as an art-form.
