Location(s)	Slumbering Sanctuary
Reward	Ranger's Gear (10%)

Dancers are enemies added in v1.8, the Bestiary Update. They appear exclusively within the Slumbering Sanctuary.

Behavior

Dancers are only capable of stabbing towards the player repeatedly, but this attack cannot be parried. If the Beheaded attempts to do so, the Dancer will instantly end their attack, and continue to repeatedly stab once the window for the parry has ended. The dancer can also dash behind you and stab you in the back.

Moveset

Stab Description: A flurry of three short-range forward stabs with a short startup and fast animation. Can be blocked and dodge rolled but not parried. On a parry attempt the dancer does an attack halt. With each separate stab, the dancer moves a short distance forward.
Backstab Description: Dashes behind you and does a stab attack. Can be blocked and dodge rolled but not parried. On a parry attempt the dancer does an attack halt.
Attack halt Description: Upon an attempt to parry the stab attack, the Dancer halts the attack until the parry window is over.

Strategy

It is best to roll through their first attack, and then retaliate before the Dancer has another opportunity to attack.

Trivia
