For the most part,Romancing Saga 2: The Revenge of the Sevenis a very faithful remake of the original. However, that doesn’t mean that it hasn’t added a new thing or two. One of the biggest additions is giving you the ability to recruit the dancer class.
The dancer is quite possibly the best rapier user in the game. She does everything fairly well, while also being a strong magic user. This easily makes her one of the strongest classes in the game (and that isn’t even mentioning her strong class ability). However, given the work you need to do, that is quite well-earned.
Where To Recruit The Dancer
You can recruit the dancer simply by talking to her in the Atlanticus tavern after watching her perform a dance. It is that easy… once you have worked your way through the multi-faceted Mermaid Quest, at least.Yes, unfortunately, this class can only be obtained once you have completed the Mermaid Quest.Completing that quest involves…
So, obviously, that Mermaid quest has a lot to it. If you want a more detailed breakdown of each and every stepyou should read our complete guide here.
You need to complete the Mermaid quest, from beginning to end, with one emperor. If your emperor dies, or there is a time skip, you will fail the mermaid quest.As far as we can tell, it is impossible to recruit the dancer if you fail that quest.
Dancer Class Breakdown
The Dancer is among the most versatile classes in the game. Her worst stats are her strength and vitality, but even those stats are pretty close to average. Beyond that, she is fast and dexterous while having a very high magic stat. She is skilled with the rapier and with water magic.That speed helps her go toe-to-toe in melee combat, while she’salsoset to be a strong water magic user.
Additionally, the dancer’s class ability - Penny Pincher - will recover a quarter of the unite attack’s Overdrive gauge after you land an overdrive attack. Meaningshe will greatly enhance your ability to land the most powerful attack in the game more frequently.
