The value of a Dancer, as with any job with indirect contribution, improves with party performance.

And even then the indirect damage contribution does exactly no more or less, number per number, than direct contribution. If you do 7k yourself and only add a further 3k via the party, you're still doing no more than any 10k SAM or BLM.

The only real difference is that you can better be carried by your party the more you contribute indirectly.
