Can still only hold 4 feathers but a Phoenix Feather will just replace a Peacock Feather allowing you to store up to 3 Phoenix Feathers... hmm I'm liking this idea more and more as it's kind of a evolution of the job in a way... kind a lol.
    I'm all for it, but deepening on how that might turn out that might step on SNM's toes.

    That said if we're gonna be cribbing a little form other job aesthetics, I kinda want an aesthetic shift closer to AST and thus have the skill set reference the Summer Triangle (and the Cowherd and Weaver Girl story) and the Apus (Bird of Paradise) constellation.

    Like have a trait that:

    1. Does the weak AoE thing you mentioned for the steps, or a similar AoE Heal
    2. Changes the GCD Attacks or their respective steps to reflect the Constellations of Aquilla, Lyra, Cygnus and Apus (respectably) under a "Luminary" buff prolly granted by Saber Dance
    3. General Potency Buff or a Temperance esque effect (less damage taken when near the dancer)
    4. A finisher that consumes the stance/buff to unless a 1000 or thereabouts Single Target attack
    On a side note as FD3 is an AoE attack wit would make sense to make that an upgrade for FD2 if anything, and have the other FD upgrade be just a stronger potency single target.

    Might flesh out this "Celestial bird" motif a little later

    I figured that if they do what I was thinking about the Fan Dances they would just make Fan Dance 3 a purely single target and higher potency move and have Fan Dance 4 be the upgraded AoE move.
