Dancer
"If you can't keep up, stay off my dance floor."
Most often known as dangerous women, Dancers have waltzed their way through history with no regard for those who would question their unusual battle-steps. With their smooth movements, no Dancer stays in a bad position for long: if statuses can't persuade their enemies, the Dancer's dagger certainly can. In Vana'diel, Dancers helped their allies achieve victory on the front lines of the historical Crystal War.
The Dancer is all about making groups of enemies miserable, whether through attacking them directly, or by laying down one of the many status effects they can access.
