Dancer on Bard gear huge error?

[HyoMinPark]

Has the OP never heard of glamour?

DNC's rDPS isn't low if you have a decent party, and that's what ultimately matters. And LOL at BRD/MCH being some of the lowest DPS. BRD beats DNC, RDM, and NIN; and MCH is beating those three, BRD, and SMN. Perhaps research a bit before you make silly accusations about a job's damage potential.

I would have rather DNC have had it's own gear tbh but have no issue how it is now either sharing Bard/Mach gear.
Just means i am gearing multiple jobs at once. Well that and i always have inventory space issues... :/

If i decide to ever for whatever reason go back to Bard, i just re-glam. Not a big deal as prisms are cheap to make or obtain

I think DNC boosts attack and other stats for it's dance partner. Are you factoring in that extra damage into DNC damage or the fact that it is better for groups of mobs than other jobs?

I never thought of dnc not being strong when one step dance hits most time for 100k and other for 160k along with boosting skills. Why would a dancer use ninja gear when it is long range dps job and not close range dps job like a ninja. Could see it use ninja gear if didn't use ranged weapons.

Personally, I'd rather see Ninja folded into Aiming gear and remove an extra set from my armory chest. Merge Dragoon into Striking while we're at it, their odd niche of "DPS with more armor" fell away a long time ago.

I don't have a problem with dancer on aiming gear. Sure, once in a while, you may get some sets that don't favor dancer well, but that happens with all of these groups.

I do however think that many aiming sets fit rdm better than traditional caster robes do a lot of the time, but even then there are good glams to pick from for rdm too.

I can understand DNC using scouting gear from a style point of view. (And personally I kinda wish another class used scouting) but then it hit me.

How would they wear the most stylish set in the game?

Lol I remember in a thread telling people that after playing both I didn't see much difference in single target damage between SMN and RDM.

Wow you should have seen the hissy fits over that one lol.

That's because you're objectievly wrong and are insisting you are correct based of feelycraft

DNC and BRD share more overlap than DNC and NIN do though, the problem with Aiming is MCH being high-tech bang bang steampunk guns and BRD/DNC being traditional performers.

This tier just happens to be ugly for DNC... maybe next tier MCH will find itself with a lot more skin showing to compensate. We're just gonna have to take turns and glam when it isn't ours.
