Interpretive Dance Overview

Interpretive Dance is a sub-skill of the Performance skill. It is said that any being could dance at will in the past, but forces beyond comprehension stripped that ability away. This easy to learn, easy to master skill is now taught by various citizens around the Council Lands.

In-Game Description

Interpretive Dance Mechanics

Group Dancing

When three or more dancers are dancing in close proximity, instructions for synchronized dancing will appear near the ability bar.

Example Synchronized Dance moves

Turn around and use Dance #4.
Say "hey" in nearby chat.
Jump and use Dance #6.

Following the instructed dance moves within a time limit will grant a selection of buffs. The more dancers able to complete the instructions, the stronger the buffs become. The longer a successfully synchronized dance lasts, the longer it takes for the buffs to vanish.

Variant Dances

Variant dance abilities can be learned once Level 10 in Interpretive Dance is reached.

Two variant dances (Type B and Type C) exist for each of the six automatically learned Interpretive Dance abilities. NPCs that teach dance abilities will not demonstrate their variant dances unless at least three musicians are playing music for them. Once an NPC begins to demonstrate their variant to the music, use an Interpretive Dance ability to dance alongside them until you learn their move. The amount of time it takes to learn a dance move is random, but usually quick.
