DNC damage

Being able to start a fight with standard on someone, then switching to another DPS and reapply standard asap is extremely nice.

Um... that doesn't work though. If you drop Closed Position on someone, they lose their Standard Step buff.

Well, Dancer damage remains in the toilet after patch notes. Rather depressing.

But you indirectly are buffing reaper. You’re useful now

Just reading the Japanese forums and they aren't happy with the lack of Dancer buffs, either. Maybe in 6.1.

I'm pretty disappointed with Dnc output right now. The amount of nerfs they made to potency and tying two abilities to only pop up when using buffs for Endwalker, just really doesn't make sense to me. I usually have fun playing dnc by being a buffer and contributing to damage, but since the expansion it just feels like they are there just to buff the party and provide eyecandy or something. All I know is I'm going to be hanging dnc up for a while until they decide to look into rebalancing jobs only because they clearly messed up the job right now.

Totally lost on my side too, the buff given by Tilana is totally useless and I absolutely do not see how the modifying the patch will fix anything.

So... Witch them changing your dances to weaponskills does that mean skill speed will make them cool down faster? Or ar the Dances still abilities but the Finishes now Weaponskills? Does this actually do anything other than just reassigning them?

All this does is indirectly buff Reaper and Monk.

According to the current logs of savage Asphodelos, the gap between DNC and BRD is simple ridiculous, about 8~9% rD difference is unacceptable.
Even if they buff the Saber Dance by 200 potency, it still can't fill up this gap, i don't even know how could they screw up the balance so hard.
I can only hope they can finally notice this by now and fix it little bit with future patch.

Stranger than Starfall only being usable during Devilment despite getting zero benefit from the buff?
