After passing the quiz, Bijou will send the player to Dance on the stage. At this point one should make sure to equip a Bow and some arrows and then head behind the stage to meet another NPC with a "Waiting Room" chat window above her head. Entering the chatroom will put the player on queue for the trial.


The exam is a simple test of movement and quick responses. Hotkeying Arrow Shower or Double Strafe and Improve Concentration is suggested.
  • Note: there's a poring at the end that has to be killed with a bow. Using Improve Concentration is optional, even though the NPC will ask for it.
The Dancing pattern is as follows.
  • Back
  • Front
  • Left
  • Right
  • Center
  • Pose (just remain on the tile)
  • Improve Concentration
  • Left
  • Front
  • Right (NOT Front, Right as iRO in-game dialogue says!)
  • Pose (just remain on the tile)
  • Left, Center, Right, Back
  • Right
  • Left, Center, Front, Back
  • Left, Center, Front, Back
  • Front
  • Left
  • Center
  • Arrow Shower or Double Strafe
For those future dancers who are having problems with this part of the test: An effective way to pass this exam is to only perform the first and last steps for sequences with more than two steps, rather than hitting all the tiles. For example: instead of doing "Left Center Right Back" one simply goes from Left to Back.

Return to the NPC who gave the quiz for the job change to Dancer. She will reward you with either a Line [3] for Job 50, or a Rope [3] for any job level lower than 50.
