Dancer Archive

1. She will need her own account before she gets too attached to the character on your account. Mwaahahahahaaa... ahem.

2. Whenever she does a flourish tell her to do two flourishes in quick succession. This will get her more xp than just doing one.

3. Um. Tell her about the /addignore command so that if she meets any unpleasant people she can just /addignore them and they won't hurt her game experience. Also the deny service command if she gets really upset with someone - I've never used this though, so someone else can maybe supply the exact command?

4. Holding a weapon in your hand, like a knife or a combat staff, will keep you from falling so much.

5. Have fun! Talking with people is hard at first but it gets easier the more you do it.

Edit: Lithium seems to like justified text today.

Reading your post reminded me so much of the time years ago when my husband finally convinced me to try an on line game he was playing at that time.
Next thing you know, we were bickering like little children over who’s turn it was to play next.
So we ended up getting a second computer and second game account.

The only advice about dancing I can give is to have fun, don’t watch the clock or exp bar but have fun dancing and when levels come they come.

Also you should point her to this forum, there are so many questions answered here, so much of useful and beneficial information.
I have found answers here for questions I have not even thought about asking till I was reading them.
Now I here at every coffee break and in between

While double flourishing, as I like to call it, works for musicians to get the music XP higher for some reason, I have never found this to be true for dancing. As far as I can tell it only burns action faster, but does nothing for boosting dance XP. I don't know if others have found differently. The only other advice I have that I haven't seen someone else state yet, is to encourage her to get into ent groups with other live entertainers, and look into joining the Entertainer chat channel if there is one on StarSider. It's good to start meeting the local ents, and start finding out about the events on that server. Of course Bria and Flurry are another couple of good servers for ent events, but maybe I'm biased.

She is correct, double flourishing is for musicians only.

/bonk self






...note to self: Stop double-flourishing on Starsider and TC characters!! And even soap and water will not remove that large "L" from your forehead!!

Heck, I've only been playing an entertainer for what? Three.... four months... ::BLUSH::

Double flourishing seemed to give me more XP when I first started, but as of Footloose it definately didn't anymore. Not sure about Basic2 and Rhythmic2, but with Basic and Rhythmic it might still be worth a shot.
