Having two Dancers, even if they're not partnering each other, also causes one of the Dancer's to do a little less DPS since they have to delay their first Devilment+Technical Finish (or at least the first Technical Finish) by ~20 seconds since it won't stack with the TF from the other Dancer.
I mean yeah a single buff from standard step is 5%, but since two dancers can stack them wouldn’t it be more like 10% between the both of them? Say both of the dancers are not even pulling numbers they should be at bare minimum, the misconception I’m hearing is them feeding each other will make their dps significantly higher as well as benefit the party more over all. To the point where they “don’t need an LB”.

I did some log research and comparing the highest dancer parses that have a dancer feeding them to, say, a high parse for a samurai. Between the dps, the damage over all was more in the party with one dancer, because the samurai did so much damage. About 1-2k more than the double dancer group. Comparing top parses can be kinda inaccurate due to the amount of feeding going on, and the overall RNG, composition and skill of the group needs to be taken into consideration, but I’m more inclined to agree that choosing the highest dps as your partner is more of a benefit over all.
