Thread: Dancer's Tillana issue ignored in the 7.05 notes... how?!

It's not even a combo you'd break; you can use regular combo and proc skills as well as Saber Dance / Dance of the Dawn to manage Esprit before using Tillana and prevent overcap yourself. Mind you I don't exactly main Dancer, but I don't quite see the issue here if you got a 30 second window to generate the +50 Esprit without losing it.

EDIT: At most I can see a silly situation if you sit on like 40-45 Esprit before Technical Step and then have a weird waiting period for reaching 50 gauge or risk losing a bit of Esprit or perfectly aligned potencies by going Tillana early.

The problem is DNC generates soooo much esprit because of how tech works (20% chance to get esprit from each GCD a party member does) and DNC now has so many fixed GCD's in burst which is its own issue that you can easily run into the situation where even if you hold Tilana your esprit can jump from 50 to over 100 in a moment and boom overcap because we don't have enough free GCD's to spend Esprit fast enough now
