Thread: Top Dancer vs Super Dancer

Hi all... still learning the ins and out of this game and something recently has been puzzling me. As you all know we just got the new Saturday orb daily so I decided to awaken my Waltz.

What puzzles me is the description difference between Top Dancer (class evolved) and Super Dancer (awakened). From what I've seen with most of the classes that go from class evolved to awakened is the class gets a slight buff for doing so... thing is I'm not clear as to what Dancer does. One could say that Dancer awakening doesn't improve the class... but if so why would the description change:

Top Dancer
Allies in range gain 10% dancer's defense & attack

Super Dancer
Add 10% if your attack and defense value to the final values of surrounding allies

If there was no difference then why would they change the description? The wiki page says that their isn't a difference between the abilities... but Super Dancer's description seems to imply that it has a slightly different interaction when their are other buffs in place that your team is benefiting from then it normally would for earlier versions of the class. Then again... I don't know how buffs overlap in this game and what prioritizes over what. Nor do I know how to get that information.

If anyone can help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated. This is driving me nuts.

Sadly Waltz barely benefits from awakening. The 50% dodge isn't exactly useful as you aren't going to be in many situations where Waltz is taking archer fire instead of literally anyone else. She also barely gains any stats for that massive XP investment. Her awakening is purely for her eventual Skill Awakening, Endless Waltz. Instead of 100% boost during duration, the moment it is ready to use it automatically triggers and then stays active until the map ends or she gets withdrawn/taken out. It only does 30% boost instead of 100% but it has the improved range it normally does while active.

I opted just now to use my dancer orbs on Solano's awakening instead and put off awakening Waltz until I'm ready for Skill Awakening.

Top Dancer and Super Dancer do the same thing.

They just retranslated from Japanese again instead of using the old translation so we now have two worded slightly differently but both mean the same (and work the same).

Note though that the second one is slightly more informative as the stats added by the dancer to other units doesn't get improved by the other units skills or buffs (as they've already been buffed by the dancer herself).

Thanks for the replies they are greatly appreciated. I need to learn all that I can so I don't repeat the mistakes I've made with my katie, bernice, cloris, ect (evolving before lvl 50) and other mistakes like that... the only thing was I couldn't find out where this info was (wasn't a guide or anything for this kind of thing).

Not to say I regret awakening waltz now... she is the only plat I have that is max unit cost reduced other then memento so even if its only a slight stat increase it still helps my team.

lol. Completely missed that. Considering I wasn't in a rush to awaken Marnie or Solano, I didn't even bother to read the news tab completely. Pretty much stopped at we have 1 new mission.

But in the end, it doesn't matter what orbs Solano needs. I have no witches to AW her (and several other units)

:P

Most of these were from as far back as Charlotte's event (the level 10's) and Claudia's event (the level 7's). I was trying to farm Pallis instead, but Calliope wouldn't stop dropping.
