Dance (Final Fantasy VI)



Dance is Mog's special ability in Final Fantasy VI. The Dance command is a mixture of Final Fantasy V 's Animals and Gaia battle commands. When Mog selects a Dance, he will randomly perform one of four abilities. The odds that he will perform a certain ability are not equal. There is a 50% chance Mog will "stumble" on his first attempt in a battle if Mog is not on a home terrain, and if Mog succeeds, control over him is lost for the remainder of the battle or until Mog dies. The secret character Gogo may also use the Dance command, but is not capable of learning new Dances. Gogo only knows the current dances Mog knows.

Mog learns new dances by fighting in different areas. If Mog is in an area whose home terrain he does not know the dance for, he learns the dance. One thing to note, however, is that Mog will not learn a dance if he danced during the battle. This is because when Mog dances successfully, if the dance is of a terrain different from the terrain the party is fighting on, the terrain will change to that of the dance. For example, successfully dancing the Earth Blues in a desert will change the desert to a mountain. This means both that, if Mog is killed and revives, dancing the Earth Blues a second time will ensure success, but because the terrain has changed from desert to mountains, Mog will not learn the associated dance of the desert.

The chances of using a particular ability from a Dance varies. Below is a chart of the Dances, abilities, and chances of using said ability.
