Dancer discussion

[urat]

Back to say you most definitely can kite as dnc using chocob jig. (and desperate flourish if you really don't want to dat edit >_>

I simply swapped jig with flee, and it was piece of cake.

I use combo of -dmg set and eva set, pop flourish on mob, and run. The mob generally gets one hit on me before I'm out of range. then I wait til I'm about 25 units away, pop jig, and resume running, keeping the mob just in view.

This is even easier for monsters that casts magic. you can simply hover just in range, and take 3 steps back as soon as they start casting.

for mobs that have ranged attack, like thfs and rangers, DON'T use jig right off the bat, pop flourish to get out of range, then cast utsu ni once far enough away.

Every time they range attack you, take couple steps back, wait for them to range again. Once your shadows are burnt pop jig to get far enough out of range to recast shadows, then repeat. By the time the mob burns through ni and ichi jig will be ready to be recasted.

NOTE: this doesn't really work well for hate tanking for mages and etc. More for things where your vs mutliple mobs and need to take 2-3 out of action while group deals with rest.

All I got to say, if you want I can post some videos of me kiting 2-3 mobs at once, it's actually remarkably easy once you get the hang of it...

Stopped reading here.

YOU CANNOT SWAP DATS THAT GIVE YOU AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE.

Jig is meant to be uninterpretable. If you swap Jig with Flee (a JA that can be blinked out of to cancel the animation) it's the same as if you have no Jig.DAT at all and thus you aren't stuck in the 5 second animation.

You can call it whatever you want. It is cheating though. There is no way DNC can use Jig as a kiting tool without it being illegal. Stop trying to make it out to be something other than a tool to get from Point A to B faster.

This just in, Duping is totally fine cause its SE's fault for fucking up the script.

BUT IF YOU SO MUCH AS FUCKING THINK OF DAT SWAPPING...!!!

Agreed. You realize they corrected that by handing out one of the biggest mass bans in this game's history right?

There is nothing wrong with DAT swapping that is purely aesthetic based. The second you start messing with game files that give you an unfair advantage, then that's bannable. I would love it if someone GM'd you for this and you got a ban so that way you'd finally realize how wrong you are.

By the way, is the job even @ 75 yet?

Incase it gets removed.

[Toth]

I can't believe he is still peddling this blatant cheat. Unless it is a legit, effective tool, DO NOT TELL PEOPLE TO USE IT. You are making very little friends here.

[Amanada]

Let's make the game more realistic to things do not depop, jerk "Hahah Chance to MPK noobs!" SE: "Nerf the bloody MPK!" BST: "Oh noes!"

Dat modder (aka FF Plastic Surgeons >_>) "Let's make my character look better!" Jerk:"Hahah new way to cheat the game!" SE "Auto file check against changing of dat files" Dat modders: ">_<"

Oh Tsu! the feet you were forgetting about were Enkidu's Leggins, which were a great substitute btw, (Jueno refuses to drop Toe shoes....) and what grenade btw? because i use Black Tahtlum in that spot.

Smart Grenade - BGWiki

Free alternative from a Tiphia or Tathlum.

Yes it's the Smart Grenade. The build I posted is a good high end build for people you know who don't have access to 10 Million Gil Tathlums or Dusk Gloves+1. ^^

[Shin Volcano]

lol my tahtlum was free not that i'd ever spend that much on it in the 1st place and i don't use dancer enough to bother with dusk+1..not even the NQ lol.

[Ophannus]

god i wish tathlums were cheaper or let those jobs wear bomb core/fire bomblet.

If anyone cares or still reads this thread, Mirke Waldecors is better to tp in when you add +10atk +10acc than Etoile Casaque is. Just sayin'.

[Talint]

Why would you not add +10acc, +3% Dual Wield? Are there situations when you're not /NIN?

[orinthia]

With +10acc/att it's just barely better then relic body. If you have relic body then why bother making another tp body that does almost the same thing?

Use the acp body for unique buffs you're not getting elsewhere. 3%DW is a good buff combined with +10acc, like talint posted, but you might not always find yourself /nin. Really depends on your other jobs I would think since it's not a huge upgrade for dnc (like a pet job, cor, rng, etc, would have more unique benefit).

Myself... I'm a bit undecided (pld, war, drk, sam, dnc at 75). I need to read up on others decisions in the acp augment, what's better, etc threads, but I'm probably not making it more specific for my dnc even though I'd like another shiny for it...

[Bakthi]

With those jobs, I think I'd go for +enmity/fast cast if I used PLD at all.

[Shin Volcano]

I honestly don't think you need that body if you have AF2, it's the same reason MNKS with Togi shouldnt get it...the diffrence is minimal at best, and AF2 already has dex+4 but me personaly if i did get it, i'd focus on another job that can get a better use out of those stats.

It's the best Kleos weaponskill piece available with the +5STR and the +5DEX.

Honestly, the Waldecors offers one of the best possible upgrades a DNC can get, depending on the augments you get. Accuracy +10, Dual Wield +3, and so on. The hardest part is justifying getting such a body piece for a job that doesn't get much playtime.

This is my exact argument, how often does one get a chance to play dancer, tho the body peice may help you, it may be a waste if DNC is hardly ever used.

So it makes you think, you may as well get a body peice best suited for the job you primarly use. I don't know many people whos main job is DNC but chances are if your main job is DNC you probably aren't doing any serious Endgame do to the biast Community agaisnt DNC.
