    Thanks everyone, some good replies here.

    Im not a fan of how much i have to watch my hotbars instead of boss mechanics or my DPS gets tanked BUT I still choose to main it and enjoy it more than any other I have played.

    My primary gripe with dancer, THERE ARE JUST NO GOOD GLAMS!
    Everything's for Mech or Bard, even our Late Allagan gear shares the tank appearance when id love it was the Ninja/DRG one instead XD

    Anyway ty all for the replies. Was a good read.

    I have to watch my hotbars as a dancer less than almost any other job - that's one of the main things I like about it - I just keep an eye on the buff feed to know when I proc the combo skills, Fan Dance is bright enough that I see it without actively checking, and I just hit Fan Dance III every time I use Fan Dance just in case.

    Every jobs needs to watch their hotbar, DNC just needs to watch their procs.
    As for the glams, it's another topic. I can say for sure there was much more for BRD/DNC than for MCH during Shadowbringer.

    Beyond their rDPS because of the ranged role, there is no problem with DNC.
    It has great utility, among the best mobility and even rDPS wise, it's one of the best choices.

    A tip if you want.

    You can use the macro /micon "Standard Step" to create unclickable icons that will still show the cooldowns and all that and set them like I have in the screenshot I'll attach ( yes, I am ridiculously poor lol ).
    I also have my personal buffs and dots in easier to follow spots, I have basically centered the most important things to pay attention to in the middle of the screen.

    Even with your 1234 combo you could put up 3 and 4 for example to see if one of them procced.

    I've written a list before – it got long and I won't pull it out this time, but I've made dancer glamours for my own characters with the Yafaemi/Facet, Sagittarius, Torrent, Ovim and Paglth'an body pieces, and there are more pieces that I still want to use. Also the Torrent armguards are great for adding frilly sleeves to anything.
    Tbh I feel like NIN has a lack of glams that looks like they actually were made for NIN.
    I'd like to see some more gear that is designed a bit more specifically for Jobs.
    I mean you could still use it on others too and make it work, but like with the Radiant gear for example why does my NIN look like a spellcaster in it lol?
