What the types mean[]

There are 6 major categories of job abilities for Dancer. Some require TP, while others do not. Some are self-only. Some are party-only. Some are mob-only.


Job Ability Type Requirements Targets affected
Samba   TP  Self and Mob (+players attacking Mob)
Waltz   TP  Party and NON Party Members (Divine Party Only)
Jig   None  Self Only
Step   TP  Mob
Flourish   Stored Finishing Moves  Mob
Flourish II   Stored Finishing Moves  Self (sort of)


The importance of the categories, other than the requirements and areas of effect, is that each category has its own recast timer. Using one Job Ability in a category will prevent another one in that same category from being used, until the recast timer is up.

It is important to note that different abilities may have drastically different recast timers, even in the same category. For example, even though you can spam a Curing Waltz by itself every 6 seconds, using a Healing Waltz will stop you doing any other waltz for 15 seconds.
