    Even more then Omega, Dancer's story is all about Dynamis, they just didnt call it that.

    Seriously, look up what the class story for Dancer in ShB was. All the things they talk about, the way the things that are happening work, the final boss of the quest line is a straight up Blasphemy. In retrospect Dancer is straight up and Endwalker advertisement.

    But Omega is the other big one, and it makes a ton of sense that Ishikawa specified playing it and Coils being the most important side content for EW.

    Came in just to post exactly this about Dancer! And to top it off, Dancer is Thavnairian, where the modern-day concept of akasa is a known theory.

    And for people who aren't total weirdos like me who can readily recall the majority of the game's content, the actual description of the thing the Dancer quests go up against:

    Having at last confirmed matters with her own eyes, Mistress Nashmeira finally reveals to you the truth of the matter. What you have witnessed in Ul'dah and Gridania is none other than a phenomenon called the Totentanz, described ominously as the dance of the damned. As the Troupe Falsiam principal tells it, it is an aetheric manifestation that both arises from and feeds on the anger and fear in people's hearts, spreading across the land, taking over bodies and minds, and forcing unfortunate souls to perform a violent dance that often ends in their (and others') demise. She further explains that it is Troupe Falsiam's mission to wield the Kriegstanz to deliver the people of Eorzea from this menace, as her forebears have done time and again throughout history. Your calling as a dancer now crystal clear, you vow to redouble your training efforts, that you might be fully prepared for the confrontation that lies ahead.
    That's... pretty much bang-on for how things would go on to be described around the Terminus Beasts, isn't it?
