I recently got this dance type and when I do Flourishes 3-8, I get the same flourish routine. Only the first two are different. Is this a bug? I really thought exotic and exotic 2 would have more interesting flourishes.

No, it's not a bug. All exotics really have two, maybe three unique flourishes. Generally 4 and up is the jiggle.

I was so disappointed with the flourishes on exotic 2 that I dropped dance for master entertainer. I've never been disappointed with my mandeviol - but I do hope that they fix the exotics to make the flourishes worthwhile.

I just recently got exotic and exotic 2 also and I was disappointed as well. I also don't think it makes sense that we get both of those at the same time since one is just a clumsier version of the other. Does anyone even use exotic?

And guess what? Exotic 3 and 4 only have - TWO!!!!


How does that make sense? As a master dancer you have LESS dance capabilities?!?! So what if they take twice as long - that's not really a good thing! Besides that, I don't know how it looks to the patrons watching, but to the dancers the flos initiate and end very ugly - a stilted swing into and out of the flo.

Yeah, it's pretty bad. But I do kind of like lyrical 2..............


Still, kind of not worth getting master. I really only just wanted the title.

You know, I really wanted exotic 3 and 4 - I figure combine those with exotic 2, and you have a complete set of flourishes if you changedance correctly. But exotic 2 by itself.. it made me pouty. I just started a new dancer character (that actually has enough skill points to master, not dabble) and I'm having a blast!

Thanks all for your answers. I was confused when I got Exotic1 and 2. All she ends up doing is swaying back and forth and then doing 3 flourishes here and there. Sometimes when Flourish 4 is clicked, she tries to do this other move, but if it's clicked again she goes back to doing the jig. Seems like poor thinking on the part of the developers to have the end dances only do a couple of moves.

Currently I use smokebomb effects to help mask my transitions between the exotics, because I too havn't found any smooth way of doing it yet I try to mix up the effects though so it doesn't look repetitive and I space out my flourishes a lot too.


I've found a nice timing for a smokebomb change is from exotic 3 to 4. Trigger the smokebomb right as you complete your base dance spin and have finished the dip. You then start rising up as the smoke surrounds you, changedance to 4, and to everyone else it looks like you just rose up and transitioned into 4 from 3
