Same!
The story for Dancer really is the most visually appealing. Learning about them really doing heroic things as fighters undercover was unexpected.
5:40 I think the problem is how XIV deals with Dashes. Your hotbox stays at the original spot until the animation is finished.

THANK YOU for spotlighting my favourite job to play! I started out as Archer/Bard, picked up Dancer once I was able. I struggled with it at first, but grew to adore it as I settled in. Even got a real life tattoo featuring the Dancer job stone, a blue Elpis flower, and the Azem stone.
dancer is so much fun to play and the fits look so good. partner with a reaper or samurai and can clear ads or bosses super quick with the buffs

It's so funny watching people beg for dance partner! They want that big dps!
I remember when Dancer became one of the reasons I bought FFXIV. I remember seeing one when I did duties (I was on trial account back then) and thought they were the prettiest class in the game. So when the sale came out I took the chance to buy the game. And Dancer became one of the first jobs I maxed ~
Please keep the phys range videos coming and do Bard next - a humble bard main

Seconded, I'd love to see some love for Bards!!
Dancer was my first Ranged Physical DPS, and damn did I not expect to fall in love with it as hard as I did, super fluent and incredibly flashy and incredibly mobile. Absolutely worth playing.
Love the series. Great edits.
You have me sold! Thank you for this video
You just convinced me to choose Dancer as my first dps job. I really wanna see the job storyline, plus all the glam is so pretty ✨💖

Super fun job now that I've been in it. I'm glad I saw this vid xD
DNC is my favorite DPS job,I won’t lie😅❤🎉 Thank you for this Avy!🤩💗💟💜
Been trying to nail down what my next job would be after summoner, which I really love. I love the always keep shooting nature of the class. This video has definitely convinced me that dancer should be my next.
Bit of a missed opportunity to have a running away sequence only to find that the whole town is in a dancing mood~ 💃 🕺
Everyone stop what you're doing new Avycatte just dropped
Just got my dnc to 90 yesterday! It's been a lot of fun lvling, cant wait to try it out in raid!
I took up dancer the first time I saw the glamour in the pvp vendors. I hadn't unlocked it and I fell in love with the outfit. I had to get it. It was then my 2nd job to 90. (I have 4 now, Dragoon and Archanist is 2 in 1.)
100% on all of this. At first it was confusing until I reorganized my bars. Then leveled it just to do rDPS quests and it was my highest one, so figured less work. Now it is my main and I lovelovelove it. Plus I enjoy the group utility and helping to boost others while being flashy in the background. ...and its fun to spam dances for no reason when bored as if playing DDR.
Sweet! ❤ Thank you!
Well that's it I'm convinced time to turn Roegadyn into a Dancer.

Shield Samba for stack markers!!
AvyCatte became AvyLizzard, I see. And yes, Ranaa Migho is the best. If you didn't feel some romantic or (more likely) sexual tension between her and the WoL during Rising to the Occasion, I must ask if you skipped the cutscene or something. As for next "10 Reasons To Play X" video...hm. I'd say let's swap off DPS for a minute and say 10 Reasons to Play Paladin.

finally someone said it lol
I'd love to see you do a video on Monk!
I can't wait to see the Dark Knight and Gunbreaker videos.
haha first.. lol.. Love the Vids, ironically I was playing Dancer last night.
DNC does feel like DDR, I tried my hands to sub semi casually but that opener is an absolute banger to experience For the next video I’d love to hear your thoughts on the maybe best storyline of all job quests, the broodiest hp managementiest job, the DRK
My dancer is on 90, but I haven't touched the job in the while. This has actually motivated me to pick it up again, bc it IS super fun and pretty :D so thanks!
7:22 "I just wanted to add that here because I like pretty things. PRETTY!" this just melted my heart
I did the same thing, I leveled up all of my jobs to 90 and can't wait for the last step of the new relic weapons. If you haven't done it yet I would recommend Warrior.
Dancer was my first class I got to 90, level 86 on Gunbreaker now, think i’ll go for Sage next!
love your videos!!! please do reaper next 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I can vouch with how much dancer helps me with latency issue and low fps I was honestly very reluctant to learn dnc at first coz it started at lvl 60 with so many skills, but then once I picked it up it's actually really fun and easy, plus the dash saved me so many times coz I had less than 10 fps (very old laptop) and latency issue from playing in EU and NA server despite coming from SEA which made my walk speed slower than everyone else :') Now that I have a new laptop, it fixed my fps issue and dancer is so soooo much comfortable than it already does
Good video. I tried scholar, and it is mind binding. Next, do a video on bard.
Love the vid, and I'm probably gonna start playing Dancer a bit now because of it. Just a quick question though, I noticed that one of your points for why you should play Dancer is that the AOEs are really nice, but the clip you use during this point is the only clip in the whole video where your AOE skills are on your hotbar. In most of your clips in this video you seem to have Cascade and Fountain in your 1 and 2 slots on your keyboard, but in that clip focusing on the AOEs you seem to have Windmill and Bladeshower equipped in those hotbar slots. Is there any reason for why this is? I ask because I liked the layout of your hotbar and wanted to try it out, but I can't decide where to put my AOE skills since they occupy the same slots as your single target skills in the video.

I would also love a keybind video on the dancer! :D
Dancer is the one job I did not think I'd enjoy as much as I do. Main is WM but dancer is absolutely close to my heart!
Currently leveling dancer, woo! \o/
I'm leveling every job, and I can honestly say that Dancer is probably the most fun job! I LOVE IT!
On playing cross-atlantic you are not alone Avy, I'm in Utah but I play on Lich, AKA one of the european servers. My FC is what got me into FFXIV in the first place and they're all Pretty much entirely in europe. Edit: would Love to see you cover Black Mage AKA the Megumin of Final Fantasy
I'm not that good at dancer. I tend to get too caught up and forget to use all my procs. That being said i love having a dancer in a raid, specially as a caster. Thanks to all the dancers who adjust when i have to heal/raise and can't move. Great work on this one
When my friends got me into the game they gave me the basic rundown of the general classes, I picked Archer because buffs were my favorite parts of another game. They then proceeded to tell me what dancer was and that I could get it at 60, I have been maining it ever since! I will miss it during Dawntrail since everyone is going to be queuing as the new dps classes (will whm/ast my way through) but DNC is forever my favorite
Not sure if im correct or not, but in my Experience, the "Dash" on the Dancer does not 'update' your position until after the animation finishes, which is why you'd get 'clipped' by AOE markers you see yourself dashing out of. If the AOE marker vanishes while the 'dash' is still mid-use, you'll get clipped by it, but if you 'finnish' the dash before the AOE marker dissaperes, your safe.
I'm a machinist main and I'd love to hear your thoughts about it
everytime I see a male dancer, I instantly become enraged due to my lack of confidence on my sexuality.
As a DNC Main, perfection. Love this class so much!!! Also DNC needs their healing potency to go up AND I am a hardcore believer in DNC needing a Raise like SMN! And its amazing how the DNC job questline leads into Endwalker so well. When they were talking about Dynamis and everything I remember just being like "Wait oh my gosh its like the thing!!!"
Loved that intro. 🤣
I am a RDM main, but when it comes to reclears of raids Dancer is my go-to. It's just so much fun to play! Also, you are 100% right about the dancer story, one of the best in the game.
Also for PVP I love this job. Dash away or towards your enemies then smack them with high damage. Buff or heal your dance partner. Dash in and make your enemies become entranced for your party to gank. then finish them off with spinny circle saw blades. say that three times fast lol.
Step On Me Dancer!
I can’t wait to try Dancer❤❤❤❤
Mastering DNC feels so good too when you can weave in all your skills perfectly its so satisfying
Defeating your enemies with the ancient arts of yassification.
I like Dancer because chakrams were my favorite weapons in Reckoning, Kingdom of Amalur.
can you do gunbreaker next? i would love to hear you're opinions on it
Coming from Bard main the Dancer is a lot more laid back for playstyle and direct support, absolutely love it
I beat all of MSQ as Monk and the second job I got to 90 was DNC. 😊
as someone who loves playing support roles, i might learn dancer for my dps class. Right now i main paladin and white mage.
Im a dancer in life too so I definitely played this class.. Intrier others like samurai i Still like the feeling flying while Casting Support to group always part of my blood as player.. perfect class for me
You missed one, our limit break looks great, sounds great too.
I was going to main NIN, but then ShB came out as I was leveling and I liked DNC so much that I mained it instead. :D
I mained Dancer from the moment it came out till Reaper came out and I wanted to try that. Its definitely one of my favorite classes if not THE favorite class. Its very ADHD and dyslexia friendly, just follow the rng procs, always have your devilment and stances on cool down, follow the rest of the ranged/mdps to dodge enemy attacks. The only thing you really need to "learn" is meta knowledge, being the dance partner teir list.
Would like to see Astro next
I love dancer! I also have a personal challenge that any dungeon/raid I must be moving at all times. Not moving means no dancing.
Reason 5 the sound effects, Ill be quite for a minute so you can hear them then starts a ad
So im a gunbreaker main who picked up dancer not to long ago it became my second favorite dps class.
The only thing that makes me sad about Dancer is that someone after all this time we STILL DON'T HAVE FAN WEAPONS T_T I just want a few weapons that look like fans, they would fit so perfectly.
My reasons to play dancer: Brain off, pretty colors, brains goes BRRRRRRR (Also ffix soundtrack!)
avy is an auri xaela with the same horns (and hairstyle) i have omgggg
I hope to one day see a 10 reasons to play Paladin or Warrior
Admit it the reason we all play dancer is the incredibly sexy outfits as we twirl and prance around :D
I’ve been a dancer main for a while for most of these reasons. Reason #11: Swishy!!! I love the swishiness of the job. But apparently I’m not a good dnc main. I didn’t use aoes until I was level 88. And I didn’t know that final animation was an aoe. I just thought it was pretty. I switched to machinist for the damage increase but I really love my dancer. Now that viper is coming out, I might be a viper main. We’ll see
Hi I'm a sprout I play mainly Summoner but thinking of a dancer after this awesome video. I need to know what glamour are you using on your dancer in this video it is so beautiful 😊😍
I'm a Dancer Main and I second everything you say in this video (except the aoe thing cuz I always feel like the aoe damage of dancer sucks but maybe it just my imposter syndrom hitten so idk)
You actually have convinced me
Danger Frisbee
I knew that dnc became my main when I designated multiple glamour plates for it 😌💖 Also lolll yess I also play it when I'm sleepy and don't want the responsibility of tanking >
I love Dancer!!
Update I Tried Dancer Its My Least Favorite Class!
1. Dancer's dps scales by the amount of skin showing for female characters and by stylishness for male one. (worst DNCs I've ever had displeasure playing alongside were clothed females and skimpy males. 2. Dancer's RNG rotation makes me feel alive rather than falling asleep 8 mins into the fight from purely static rotation. DNC rng is just enough to not make it cookie cutter consistent and set in stone, hell that's same thing with something like mnk or gnb, where optimal way to play can be setout gcd to gcd 20 mins in advance. 3. Aesthetics and class gear, only for females. Idk, but male versions of dancer sets makes them look nowhere near as good as female counterpart. 4. Chakrams when weapon's model is symmetrical is pure joy to look at Eden's Promise and Cryptlurker's are extremely nice exceptions to this rule. 5. People love you for making their personal numbers bigger and is a good way to farm Comms even as a dps. 6. Virtual combat handjob for your special one. 7. Best ERP potency only second to WHM. 8. You can dance string with "Steps" in cities and perfect various Step animations with regular emotes to string some mind blowing dancing. 9. Bungirl dancers can step on me and crush my head between their silky smooth skin thunder thighs any time. 10. Bungirl dancers makes me question my sexuality, but in a good way, because damn they make me weak to their charms.
In the Mobility department, those bosses where coms are like 'look away'! 'look away'! Dancer, just look away for the whole boss fight. It's fine.
dancer was my first 80/90 was made for me i always have a blast not to mention dancer theme music is awsome
Will you possibly do RPR or SMN next? Pleaseee🥺
I typically did a expansion job for each exp mnk for arr mch for hw rdm for sb dnc for shb I tried rpr for ew but never clicked with so consider dnc my main even though I'll play the new dps for dt dnc most likely stay my main
I put away my 90 Lala WHM to play a Miqo'te dancer and I am in *love* with this job. Sexy catboy glams? Check. Using the same weapons as my childhood hero Xena, Warrior Princess? Check. Dancing my way around an entire arena during dungeons and trials with all the gorgeous animations? Check and check. There literally isn't anything I don't love about it. (Also calling DDR an old school dance game 😭 I just felt my hair turn gray and my bones creak... 😥👴)
Im a dragoon main but dancer is my raid go to! Its super fun.
Being from Turkey during USA Thanksgiving is a dangerous move. Stay safe out there. 🦃->🍗
do a video about the diffrent kinds of mentors
As a Monk main, I always like Dancers in any party, and will ALWAYS give a Comm at the to those that dance partner with me, (hey I like when I do those big DPS numbers.). 😉
I think the only jobs I haven't tried are the arcanist and black mage, but out of all of the jobs, Dancer is my absolute favorite!
@.@ never thought we would see you ascend to AuRa. 😮 this is a serious surprise.
YESSSSSS THANK YOU

Fanta'd to an aura? If so, lizard gang gang! She's so cute :3
I only ever dipped my toes into dancer, but I really liked the job quest storyline.
One of my top 5 over all of my characters. Not my #1 fosho. But definitely top 5. I'd also consider DNC to be the easiest job to play (for me anyway.) And for any new-ish players the fact that it comes with half a set of level 255 gear can only help.

Honestly if someone complained about DNC doing less damage it'd be like the whole Xeno with WAR thing, he couldn't cope that WAR did 2% less damage than DRK, but now WAR is op. DRK love having DNCs or BRDs, not so much with MCH they need the party buffs!
