Subjective Analysis

The Dancer is your reward for training a female character in the warrior classes. While most people use this class for its primary abilities, they can also equip the Scarf family of weapons that have a 2-panel range.

The Dancer's action abilities are rather worthless, though in certain battles where she can be set aside to dance repeatedly, the debuffs can start to stack up. They do little damage and hit very rarely, aside from Forbidden Dance. The Dancer's Strength Surge Reaction ability is so-so, which powers up her Attack when hit. All things considered, though, she typically ends up a curiosity as a job more than a go-to.
