We need an RNG buff, or a potency buff, and Saber Dance off GCD. Otherwise we will always lag behind competent DPS by 20-30% dps, which is ATROCIOUS and makes Dancer not viable in a raid. Being behind 10% is what I would expect, but not 20-30%.

Also, before anyone says "You're doing it wrong." I'm not and the guys I'm playing with have been playing their classes since ARR. Dancer just isn't raid viable. The heal is laughable, and the RNG is crap. I honestly feel gipped going from MNK to Dancer because I know I could pull off crazier DPS as a monk.
Yeah... Looks grim. I wouldn't mind being pulling that kind of dps if the buffed friend did more enough to compensate for it.

Without changing the numbers, I suppose Saber Dance being off gcd and Flourish granting 100% feather procs from the flourished abilities would be a great start.
