Imagine getting a group of 6 GM dancers to stand in a row!

And yes, it would be useful in PVM!


But seriously, it could distract monsters and lower their defense.
Or scare them and make them run away.
Or heck, make the monsters dance!
Like, imagine if you and your girlfriend just got done watching a movie at the local theater and all of a sudden a group of monsters surrounded you?
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

Or it could buff party members!
Or it could cause other players to start dancing too! This would be great during PVP! :lick:
Or you could dance for NPCs to earn gold! Don't beg, earn your gold! (Imagine the naturalists little clap/woohoo sound, LOL!)

Oh, and after we're done dancing we're going to need the ability to sit down!


Hahaha I can't draw but you get the idea!

*I am not actually serious! I mean, yes I want dancing in the game, but it doesn't have to be an actual skill or distract monsters, curse monsters, give buffs, or anything like that. I just want to be able to dance at EM events, the bank, during weddings, other special events, and in the privacy of my own home (Ala Risky Business).

As a wise woman once said, "Just dance, gonna be okay, da-da doo-doo mmm and just dance."

You use to be able to Dance in 3D, heh was one of few things that was fun every once and awhile to do. It only showed though in 3D, if I remember right it just looked like you were falling in 2D.

I remember this, it was my favorite thing about the 3D client. I really wish they would add all those emotes back into the game. Even if it has to be Enhanced Client only. *shudders*

But of course they won't do it because it would be too many art files. *shakes fist*

Hell yes.... implement this now!!

My bow and salute macro keys are near destruction with the rapid-fire beating they take trying to create some form of dancing movements!

I so remember dancing in 3d.... and "fainting" which I absolutely loved to do while in stairs.... it was sooo funny.

I loved all the emotes in 3d... Man I miss those...

Seriously love the idea...


I think we'll give you the 3 snaps in a Z formation for this one!

Now if they could implement just some of those old 3d emotes in either of the clients...

...all would be right with the world.

Nobody would complain about bugs anymore. They'd be having too much fun dancing, clapping, and ... falling down stairs.

A couple of years ago I proposed some Barding special moves that would force the target to actually dance for a few seconds.
