Having it pre-20 before Halatali can be unlocked is a must for me. And this goes for all jobs. Melee DPS learning theirs in the 40s for some (e.g., DRG, NIN) is so dumb.

For DNC, I was looking at its skills, and I would personally move Closed Position to Level 52 or somewhere around there. I don’t think it’s a good level 60 skill when you consider other 60 capstone skills for other jobs. You have the “skeleton” by 50, and now you learn how to be more supporty (if we were to argue the job starting from a level 1 new-player perspective). Having it at 60 is silly—even though the job starts there, because content does not. I could get behind it being the 50 capstone skill, too, though. Both are wonderful spots for it.

At level 60, I would make Flourish the capstone. It would really reduce the RNG feel from 60~80, and it feels like a good level 60 skill to have. I get what they were going for by not giving it right away—because I’m sure they were thinking “Don’t wanna overwhelm brand new DNCs“—but level 72 is way too late and inexcusable. Level 62 at the absolute latest. It should be the first thing you learn after unlocking DNC.

I’d also lower Saber Dance and Esprit management to somewhere between 60~70. If that’s not compromisable, level 72 at the latest, giving DNC an ShB gimmick to get used to. I think level 76 is a bit too late for such an important job gimmick. Devilment would be a better level 80 capstone skill than Improvisation, imo, because it is really good (for both the DNC and their Partner). And Improv needs improvements.
I guess one of the reasons aside that it might overwhelm new folks is that it might be too strong I get that point since Dancer is very strong at lower levels (even though we are completly in the hands of rng). Maybe they could put flourish on a higher cooldown at level 52 for example and shorten it with a passive at 60, 62. Something like that Or with close position...adding it early but not with the 5 % buff at the start but maybe 2% and upgrading it later.

These are just examples though not numbers I actually suggest
