I'm kinda disappointed we don't get the arabian-esque dance but it's still better than the rest and tarus still adorably cute

The taru dance is adorable!

That's our dance? And its the best one?

I really hope that's not the only dance stance/step we get and/or it actually looks better when in game. Anyway- I'm going to go find the other races dances now. I need something to /laugh at

Eidt- found the other races. And you're right- we do have the best set

Seems like there's going to be at least 2-3 distinct dance styles/stances. Found another kitty one

Riverdance ftw!

Personally, I'm just kinda wondering if maybe SE's releasing these DAT files currently just to see how fast the community jumps on them. Personally, I think it still looks too much like the Hume dance (the *real* one that is), and SE said each race would have a different dance, so why're they all lookin the same minus a few variations?

That's not riverdance, more of a cross between ballet, belly dancing and arabian dancing That was the first Mithran dance found, we believe we won't get that as a Dancer but it's just what an NPC does.

The video essentially shows 3 different dances, two look very similar but one is just a shorter version (probably the finishing moves) of the other. There's jumping around, jumping around less and the Irish/river dance-esque step movements. Or for Galka, throwing weight around, throwing weight around and stomping

All races essentially share the same dances and just perform them slightly differently. Hume and Elvaan are practically idental. Mithra tend to exaggerate the arm movements and also make the movement more fluid. Taru jump around like yoda in that Star Wars movie (both genders have the same animations for Taru. Galka is powerful motions, more like a war dance than an actual dance.

Edit: I think Elvaan should dance like they have a stick up their arse, because they certainly act like they have one up there

It does look like that!!
It's fun to see these little animations, making me look forward to starting the job

Think there's enough interest in my LS to make a Dancer party

Ohh yeah, I think we'll be starting "Dance Troupe PuszNboots" in my ls
