There is a hyperlink limit (iirc? lol) so if we go over that I might have to simplify some links as we go forward, depends on if people want the list to be added to or to start their own threads .

If you have something you'd like to add (that's news of course lol) please share it so I can update OP. Feel free to chat about the above too of course

Can someone summarize all this for me. Watching videos is a lot of work. Thanks.

[FuriousOni]

Watching videos is a lot of work.

For me, it's more like "Watching videos while at work". Big no no. So I second that request for a tldw

Tonight we feast like kings on all this new information!

After watching one video on Dancer I'm almost kind of overwhelmed by the sheer amount of versatility and options you have but it still looks like I'll have an absolute blast playing. It definitely reminds me of Bard but is also explicitly it's entirely own thing... I'm excited.

Still though, I'm kind of confused about Yoshi's comment about how Dancer is like 'easy-mode' (or is supposed to be easier for people to pick up in comparison to Gunbreaker, which was stated it's supposed to be hard mode and that 'experienced' players will love it). Tbqh from what I'm seeing Dancer is going to take a lot of competence to play right, if it doesn't end up being a faceroll like Red Mage is since the comparison was also drawn between Dancer being 'sorta similiar' to Red Mage's difficulty in one of those interviews. I guess I'll have to take Yoshi's word for it that Dancer won't cause 'disparity between player skill levels.' But I don't know about that one chief.

Samurai looks absolutely disgusting I love it so much I'm really tearing up it's even better than I thought..... this is the best day ever.

sure, watch the videos

[Wolf_Heartnet]

Thanks my dude for providing all these handy links. In fact, you deserve a present!



There you go, buddy!

[Vahlnir]

Gunbreaker looks pretty fun, I won't lie. It was a lot to take in though, but that's usually the case with any new job.

Do we know which gear Dancer can use yet?

[Bright-Flower]

I'm excited for the paladin changes.

Shelltron buff. Gap closer. Our aoe in dungeons will actually be more involved with the addition of aoe spells for requiscat phase and a second combo aoe weaponskill.

Do we know which gear Dancer can use yet?

I'd assume Aiming since it's in the physical ranged role.
