Hello, and thanks for taking the time to visit my thread Just wanted an advice and some opinions. So I have been trying to DragonDance correctly; but it seems that for some reason I can't get to do it a 100% of the time. Is this normal, or I need more practice? What I'm doing is: Corckscrew --> Dragon Strike ---> *Hold Corckscrew button until DragonStrike animation has finished* ---> Release ---> DragonStrike --> Repeat Ofcourse I combine it with Backspin Blow depending on the occation The other thing that I'm wondering is about my current equips. My objective for my Bucc is to wear a nice Reverse Equinox with the lowest Dex base possible; 20. Currently I have 21 base Dex and a total of 91 (+70) with equips; which allows me to use my 94att WhiteFangz. For the moment I'm happy with it; but I got some money and I'd like to know what would be better change. My current equips are: Zakum Helm: 15/16/15/15 Red Viska: 5 STR/ 15 Dex PAC: 3att 8 Dex MoN: 5/5/5/5 10att Moonstar Earrings: 9 Dex Yellow Belt: 2/5/2/2 Blue Whitebottom Boots: 8 Dex 14 jump Red WG: 10att 2 STR Lv50 Aran Ring: 2att 2/2/2/2 White Fangz: 94att 12 STR Dragon Glasses: +30hp/mp Finally my range is: 2535 ~ 4593 As I see it; my possibilites are to buy a 15att SCG; or maybe buy a 25 Dex Bathrobe (for the+10 speed) and get a 100att King Cent. Other thing I'd like to upgrade would be my PAC. It gives me 8dex; which I'm planning to cover with a Black Belt 5/10/5/5. Oh, and it would be nice if anybody knows how much is a 25 Dex bathrobe in Broa. That's all what I have thought about; but if you have a better idea; I'd like to read it. Thanks for taking your time to read this

It currently isn't possible to Dragon Dance with 100% invincibility un-transformed. (Correct me if I'm wrong on this) Until we get the faster Dragon Strike from the Balance Patch, 100% invincible dragon dancing is only possible when Transformed.

Also you have to be able to do enough damage with ds to oh the monster or not you will push t instead of corking through it.

Firstly, MastaSella is correct that 100% invincibility while DDancing is currently impossible untransformed. Second, although it was hard to decipher through the poorly formed sentence, mambaz was saying that you need to be able to KB the monsters with Dstrike so that cork doesn't have the rush effect, although it's not really necessary. So disregard his comment. And finally, you're doing it correctly, just keep practicing :3

100% invincibility dragon dancing is possible right now, you just need to be a robot with perfect timing. Silly Kevin :<

lmao the first time i read mambaz post it made absolute sense to me. Clearly I'm tired. As far as equips go, I'd suggest using the maker skill with Advanced Dex crystals to make a red viska. I managed to make a 12/15 lvl 80 overall with relative ease. With some good luck you should be able to top 20 or maybe even 25 dex with no trouble at all. It would be cheaper than buying a 25 dex robe too. I'd also consider buying those 80% dragon glasses scrolls if you still have slots. That could be a quick 5 dex depending on your scrolling luck. You could milk a few more dex out of you earring slot if you need to. I haven't done the math so I dunno how much more you need but thats a start.

I'm sorry, I was on my iPod and the auto correction is a bit funny at times. What I meant was, you have to be doing enough damage to kb the monster with ds, because if you don't, your cork will rush the monster instead of you being able to cork through it and end up in the middle of the mob.

[/quote] You end up in the middle of the mob regardless and that is the reason why backspin blow is used while dragon dancing.

When I had a low level DS I was at obv monks, and my damage wasn't high enough to kb them, so after every ds my cork would continue to push them instead of me being able to cork through them and backspin. I also found that pushing them makes you get hit more than if you can cork through them. :o
