Usefulness

Although the Dancer takes 120 battles to master and it has some good skills, when Aira joins the party, she has already mastered the dancer class. Aira should be given the time to learn the Sword Dance skill as it is one of the best battle skills in Dragon Quest VII. It is also the most cost effective skill in terms of overall power.

The Hero and Gabo should also learn the Sword Dance skill. It takes 108 battles to bring both classes' levels to the 5th tier where they will learn Sword Dance.
