Dancer 6.0 Speculation

[Jirah]

Dancer needs some changes like:

- improvisation is just baaad, almost never a spot to use it, cant move, loads slow, requires a lot of teamates near us. Could be a self buff or add new feature of loading feathers
- rngs procs needs to go up or at least make it so that next round of the skill will increase the rng procentage so if we fail to get a proc/feather next skill will have increased by 10-15% chance to get it and so on till 100%
- potencies needs to go up, at least on the feathers (like fan3) that are covered in huge pile of RNG, so if we are lucky and get it then be worth it.
- sabre dance being just a esprit dump is just bad...we need more skills we can use our esprit on:
* they should add a single target attack with potency of 800-850 that costs 50esprit
* if our damage is the lowest from all classes then why not give a revive skill that costs 100esprit, be it partner revive or a close proximity group revive...kinda we sacrafice a lot of dps for support.
* regen skill to party or partner only
- why not get bleading dot chance from bloodshower
-curring walts increase potency to 600 or lowe CD.

RNGs are the nasty pile since there are times that over 5-10x doing 1-2-3-4 you wont get a feather its frustrating.

We dont need non casters getting reses, just feels obtuse abd the logic makes no sense since SMN has a res being highest DPS, not every job needs a dot, the rest i half agree on due to being poorly explained on the "how" DNC needs to be more fun just feels very simple

Yes Summoner should lose raise since it has such high dps I agree, RDM has lower potency compared to SMN becouse they have both dual cast and raise. If a Dancer can heal others then why not have raise of its own as a support class and it would explain why its dmg is the lowest from all other classes, at least it would be the first range class that can revive while sacraficing a lot of dps (not jolt-varrise in 3sec), since getting esprit is slow and its heaviliy depending of partner performance.

As for fun, adding 1-2skills wouldnt break the class, but it would lower the frustration on the player becouse they cant proc or get a feather, and even if they do finally get it it doesnt proc fan3. The feeling that even if you did your rotations perfectly with 100% proc, fan3s, sabre dances you still are struggling in the dps metter becouse skill potencies are so low compared to other dps classes, which with 2-3skills out dps you instantly since potencies are higher.

So for me even if they dont want to rework the class/ make some changes, then at least they should add WAY more potencies buffs becouse of all those pilles of rngs on all skills, so if it finally procs would make it at least worth it.

Improvisation should be like meditation, a self buff of gaining esprit and feathers without the need for anyone to be near us. Flourish at other hand besides the skill procs should either fill our feathers instantly to 4 (as a part of opener) or make it that each of the skill procs grants 100% feather, so after 4skills we gain 4feathers.

snip .

Its damage is low because ranged dps overall is low, and no just beacuase it has a basic heal ogcd doesnt mean it requires a res being situational and all and having no MP meaning it doesnt trade off anything and what would this skill be called? Necro tango??

im sorry adding 1-2 skills breaks the job? that confused me. I say leave potency issues away from core design as it has the potential to change within a patch not expansion. id all DNC got was a potnecy buff and nothing else it would be a massive let down for the CORE design which is the point of the topic at hand who cares about numbers those can change in any patch. if thats your only issue than DNC is perfect and should go to a topic regarding ranged potency
