For new Dancers watching, Flourish will no longer overwrite the procs other than Fan Dance 3, so feel free to press Flourish on cooldown. Essentially, main combos now proc Silken Flow/Symmetry, while Flourish now procs Flourishing Symmetry, so they can now coexist.
Wanted to say thanks so much for these guides! They're detailed enough without going overboard with time and explanations. Most FF14 Job guides are 45 minutes to an hour, and have a friggin thesis of info for literally every ability. Guides like this one help for ppl with short attention spans like me! So thanks for the videos!
Nice work. Really like the guides, the way you present them and length. Fun to watch. Even for classes I have no interest in playing. :) Wouldn't mind seeing you expand into other guides! Keep it up.
These videos are not only fun to watch, but informative and not overloading. It definitely helps others understand how every class wants to function/play. Just spammed all of your videos for fun!
Thank you, this guide was very helpful. I like to set up my full ability bars thru max level (even the locked abilities) as soon as I start a job, and your explanation of the abilities by category was perfect for this.
Just wanted to say your "Idoiot's Guides" are SUPER helpful. Simple and to the point, and easy to understand. This one in particular made me decide to pick up Dancer so I could finish up EW Role quests. ...Thank you so much for all of these!
I look forward to these videos as someone who is getting back into FFXIV! Quick and fun guides, can't wait to see the Bard one!! Keep up the great work :)
I'm not able to juggle more than my dragoon and dark knight (both of which I learned how to better play thanks to your guides), but I wanted to drop some support! Great vid, Megastar!
alot of jobs are pretty simple, especially melee and ranged, Dancer is probably the most complicated as it relies on procs and such, I'm told Ninja is tricky, but honestly after 9 years, it seems basic to me.
Thank you for this! I just got Dancer and was about to look up 'dumbass's guide to DNC'. Now I understand (vaguely) what all the glowy shit means and why I should use them.
Bless your soul for real, I just picked up dancer last night and was so confused cause I was thinking I'd start from lvl 1 and make my way back up, but no, they just toss you in there at lvl 60 and I was floundering. Re-watched your video 3x and I feel much better going into this class! Thank you!
thank you so much! i just started dancer and was confused why my standard step only uses 2 dance instead of 4. Didn't know later on we would learn technical step that uses all 4
lol wow. ive been leveling dancer and just now realized i was missing single target fan dance this entire time. i always thought it was weird that the feathers only proc'd an aoe XD
Thanks a lot for this guide! Tho I wonder if you read comments on your old videos, i just wanted to highlight that some of us noobs could actually over level in the middle of heavensward and unlocked Dancer before Shadowbringers. Yes I am one of those noobs. As such would really appreciate if you could mention if there are any spoilers in your intro or background. Love your videos. I have picked up Black mage and Astro so far and I visit your videos once I get overloaded infos from other beginner guides. Your videos actually help in identifying skills and flow better for some reason.
oh.... I've been running around for ages using all abilities except the steps, because I didn't know they did anything except look fancy.... because it's only standard finish that actually explains that it gives damage and such. whoops??
Tillana is such a odd ability...refreshes the damage buff when the buff never has a chance to fall since you use Standard Step whenever it's off cd..personally I use Tillana immediately cuz there is no point sitting on it
I'm using the whole set of Valentione Forget-me-not from the cash store! The glasses are the Classic Spectacles. Edit: Using Emperor's New Gloves for hands
Thank for this guide. Dancer is most confusing job in this game imo. Your has millions of skill at the one time mechanic of it is so complex Also it has no in depth in-game tutorial for it too. Not even The Smith can help you on this one.
Why do you call the job "Dance Partner" when that's not what it's called, it's what it DOES, which can be confusing for new players. Instead you should say, "Use Close Position to select a 'dance partner'..." so it's not confusing, even if you do show the skill icon.
Standard Finish (the end combo of Standard Step) also does quite a bit more damage than your other Dancer skills so using it on cooldown is an increase in damage.

Bcs those others are actually guides...this is just list of skills not a guide.

Your guides really are fantastic. This is the 4th time I come to you to get a grasp of a new class or get back into one :D

I am enjoying your guides. Hadn't played FFXIV in a while, and it's nice to have a way to keep up with info on the jobs.

Okay, this class seems so much fun!
Thank you so much I’m just now trying dancer!
This is such a good guide, exactly what I was looking for! Tried to watch 2 other guides before this and they were just confusing. Gj! Thanks!
Thanks so much for this, I picked up Dancer and was immediately overwhelmed by all the skills lmao

Please add more videos which explains things like making money for us idiots!!! I love how simple they are. Please keep making them!!!!
watched this and now my whole life is a proc
simple, fun, thank you :)
If the choice is between using a proc and using flourish, use flourish. It's a good habit that will later on keep your cooldowns aligned.
Could we get one for gunbreaker
Where you get the knives weapon look at?
Neat
my mind is blown, coming from ninja and samurai omg

Whats the name of the song playing in the background
"Vamo alla flamenco" it is a song originally from Final Fantasy IX (9) this is FF14's remastered version though
Should you hold onto feathers until devil/tech window or just blow feathers as soon as you get em?
You should hold onto them. Only use them outside of the burst window if you are capped off at four.
I'm worse than an idiot. My brain friessssssss
Why am I thinking Metal Gear and Vamp?
_think you forgot about starfall dance_
I would love to play some dps class but the q is just too much i dont want to wait like half an hour for a normal dungeon :(
Try trusts(once unlocked) or dungeoning with your squadron-that’s how I leveled up some dps classes
just find something to do while you wait.
Half an hour? No way dude, levelling que is just around 11-14 minuts for dps. Unless you play on weird hour
You might wanna try to enable party in progress to shorten the time for q'ing. You might also save some time by doing only half dungeon
@Kael honestly, for me, i just find tanking stressful.
Can someone please tell me what glamours he using? :) i love it a lot :)
Also good video :):

Whoa, who's that sexy catgirl?
Thank for this guide.
Dancer is most confusing job in this game imo.
Your has millions of skill at the one time mechanic of it is so complex
Also it has no in depth in-game tutorial for it too.
Not even The Smith can help you on this one.
It's like 100 button to press
I want to be a dancer now lol
You cannot be any cuter ^^
Bro why are you screaming at me
you sounded like pyromancer that rage streamer , but you put out far better content lol

So I heard you like proccs, so we put proccs in your proccs, so you can gamble with your dps.
I understand dancer even less now.
All of that for the lowest DPS..
dancer looks hella complex
DNC is cool but utility doesn't make up for the lack of damage, atleast they are kinda addressing it in next patch so there's hope :)
Most bs class in the game. Worse than Ninja.
A stupid class.. along with a not a class blue mage...
We'll go ahead and file that under "who asked"
Standard Step you wanna keep on cooldown always. The 5% dmg buff it does also buffs itself, so keep on reapplying it every 25 sec CD anyways.
Standard Finish (the end combo of Standard Step) also does quite a bit more damage than your other Dancer skills so using it on cooldown is an increase in damage.
