Dancer Improvisation and Healing

Curing Waltz really only shows its usefulness in a trial/raid and everyone is near your partner, other than that, it does nothing, even at 300 potency.

You should be stacking for heals anyways and that's 600 potency together, which is higher than Cure III and ogcd. Of course if you just toss it randomly whenever, it's not going to be very effective - utility and heals have to be planned to get most out of them.
Even outside of that, you can still use it to save people sometimes, you just need to be smart about timing and position, but that's just a bonus.

I blast it whenever raid wide damage goes off because everyone at least knows to "marry" the healers when it's coming haha.

DPS curing walts potency does not equate to healer Cure III potency.
ilvl 470 300 potency curing waltz heals for about 7.5k (non crit) so thats 15k stacked (600 potency).
ilvl 451 550 potency cure III does about 19k (non crit).
So even with a ilvl difference of almost 20 the dancers 600 potency curing walts healed for 4k less than the white mage's 550 potency cure III.

Meanwhile I think curing waltz has it uses obviously, just pointing out that the point you made about it being higher than Cure III doesnt really mean anything given that our scaling is entirely different.
