Probably more close to an aesthetic of a dancer than the rest. Besides, isn't it only DRG and MNK who use strength gear.

Oh, what's their main weapon?

SAM shares gear with MNK and all three jobs share STR accessories. Dancer's weapon is Throwing Weapons. Chakrams, Boomerangs.. huge Shurikens? Stuff like that. Tho my main weapon will ALWAYS be glamoured as a Chakram cause I have loved those weapons every since Xena and Kingdoms of Amalur.

I have a feeling it will share gear with ninja since it's the only job unless I'm mistaken that doesn't share gear with another job.

Ninja doesn't share left side gear with any other job. It does however share accessories with Brd/Mch. Ninja is also melee while Dancer is ranged which I think is why most think it will share gear with Brd/Mch. Myself included.

I'd put my money on Dancer going on Scouting, but that's just wishful thinking. I could try and justify why that should be the case (because it is 100% the only logical choice), but at the end of the day I have no influence on where the dart the developers throw at the wall lands to determine what they do. Aiming? Scouting? Sorry folks, not even a new set. Dancer is going to Maiming; Remember, Dragoons where the original pole-dancers. RIP Ring of Thorns.

Seriously though, Scouting makes the most sense. Aiming and Scouting both have sets that... Really don't fit Dancer... Though that can be said for any Job, heck Maiming has sets that don't fit Dragoon and Scouting sets that don't fit Ninja, and those are the only Jobs those sets exist for currently... Overall though, I'd say Scouting has more sets that fit Dancer than Aiming, and it'd be nice to add a second Job to Scouting (likewise for Maiming next expansion; Heavy armor Melee + Healer for 6.0?).

Dancer is apparently only "sort of" ranged, as many of its attacks are point blank AoEs that require it to be in melee range to hit.

The mr happy video showed it used aiming gear not scouting, poo, T.T

Yeah, I saw Mr Happy verify it was aiming as well

Really? There goes all my glamour plans. Farewell pretty Ghost Barque Himation and Ala Mhigan scouting robe.

;_;

Good thing I bought that Shire Aiming gear after my first post.
