There Is No Dancer (yet)

[Dualgunner]

There are lots of ways that that video could be consistent with the addition of a Dancer class. For example, if Dancer were added as an alternative Soul Gem for Pugilists the video would make 100% sense. But all of this, including your comment, is 100% speculation.

To throw a wrench in that particular argument, due to trouble balancing Scholar against Summoner, the devs have said that they are not going to ever have branching jobs again.

There is no definitive answer that she IS a Samurai
There is no definitive answer that she IS a Red Mage
There is no definitive answer that she IS a Time Mage
There is no definitive answer that she IS a Necromancer
There is no definitive answer that she IS a Blue Mage
There is no definitive answer that she IS a Geomancer

Should we go to every job that was asked in the official forum for 35 pages ?

Go into whatever job that you want to go into, and explain why you think she is that job. People are suspecting Dancer, because there are things that suggest Dancer. If you saw something that suggested Geomancer, go ahead.

The Dev's have said a lot of things that didn't always hold true. Things change over time.

Stuff I can't quote because of the character limit

It is tempting to just focus on other topics, but I will respond to comments and questions aimed at me. I believe it is good manners to do so. I think many of you, you included don't quite get my problem. Discussing dancer is totally fine. But this thread and its five or so copies aren't discussing dancer. It's just the same argument about wether the red woman is a dancer or not. And I really honestly do not believe any of those in favor of her being a dancer, want the playable dancer to be like this. If you want dancer to be an almost exact copy of the monk (unlikely as yoshie-P did say that they won't do more branching jobs) I will concede that I wasn't correct on that account. But I think most people don't want this to be the dancer. You yourself admitted that you don't care about the answer, you just want the debate to go on.

I can't believe this has gone on for 35 pages.....

At this point, people are just arguing for the sake of continuing the argument.

Glad you two understand. This is just an argument for the sake of arguing. And it has gone long enough.

I have been thinking the same thing. Why are people so angry? Let people have fun and speculate.

Allright. Let's do that. Point me towards the thread that does it. Go on, i'll wait.

A good theory I saw was the people of ala mihgo created the dancing style to hide their martial arts training under the garlean rule.

That is a good thought. I wonder what the lore is on the blade dancer?

This would actually be really friggin awesome if this is the lore for dancer!!

That'd certainly make a DNC's questline more exciting, were the DNC ever implemented. I can totally see a capoeira thing happening.

As a side note, I wonder if anybody who's sick of the arguing tried reporting this thread. The moderators would jump at the chance to remove it, I'm sure.

What rule is this thread breaking?

What rule is this thread breaking?

Not a clue. I can't help but feel like some people see something wrong with it, though. Personally, I see nothing wrong with it. I just get a little irked myself when people come in saying, "That's enough!" They act like it hurts them in some way. "I'm just so tired of seeing this 37-page thread at the top!"

You know what? I get sick of the marriage partner thread, but you don't see me going in there, saying, "OMG, marriage means nothing in an online game! Stop it!"

Weird, huh?

[Crysten]

This.

And I can't help but want to laugh out loud at the tags located below. "it's a monk you fools" is pure gold. Thanks, Crysten!

Putting insulting tags down there is imo just showing that the person has no argument left.

Okay, okay, I'm sorry.

In the true spirit of impartiality and non-biased speculation, I have amended the tags in this thread accordingly.
