This is why I say more feathers and better procs, back in ShB you could get procs separate for each weaponskill
I don't see that in the new dancer but I also think they should have a heavier ally buff
this way working with bard then fight with them for dominance
But overall BrD should do more dmg just how much more is the question
I don’t think you can solve damage discrepancies like what exist between BRD and DNC via RNG procs. Because then you have to hope your proc rate is high enough to close the gap, versus potency buffs are more of a guaranteed increase.

Back in ShB, only your “Flourished” procs could generate feathers. You had a 50% chance to proc Reverse Cascade and Fountainfall off of Cascade and Fountain, respectfully. Likewise, there was a 50% chance to proc Rising Windmill and Bloodshower from Windmill and Bladeshower, respectively. Feathers only proc’d off of your procs—never off of your base combos, so it wasn’t any weaponskill would grant you a feather, and your procs were specific to the base combo button.

There was also only a 50% chance. Fan Dance III was a 50% chance off of Fan Dance I and II. So you can see how RNGesus could decide to spite you easily. Increasing items to give procs still won’t guarantee to close a damage gap. Just like increasing the number of available procs won’t guarantee it. At the end of the day, they remain a coin flip.

If you want to guarantee closing any gap, you adjust the potency of DNC’s base combo or other skills that don’t rely on RNGesus being nice. Otherwise, you’re still risking it falling behind should a given DNC have a bad run. And believe me, they exist.
