    Hotkey Bloat

    So I just started playing dance and I feel like this class suffers from this the most out of what I have tried playing, but other classes do too so I decided to post it in general to get opinions or to see if I am alone in thinking this.

    I feel like if you have a proc that gives you access to an ability that replaces another ability in a rotation 100% of the time (there is absolutely no situation where you would use the non-proc), the base ability should morph into the proc instead of it being a separate keybind.

    For Dancer, this comes into play with their basic 1-2 combo for both single and AoE, as well as Feather Dance.

    If you have a proc, you never use the base ability because then you chance wasting a proc. Given that Feather Dance 3 as well as the powered up combo moves are direct replacements and upgrades with no downside to using when procced, I feel like the base abilities should just become them.

    It would save 5 hotkey slots, and would not take play complexity away from the class since there is no decision in when to use the proc.

    This is different from say Red Mage with Verfire/stone where you may have both procced and have to choose which one to use. Jolt should not change to the proc because a potential choice still exists.

    Thoughts?
