  5. 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. She stands in the top left corner. Entering the chatroom will put the player on queue for the trial.


  6. The exam is a simple test of movement and quick responses. The player will find themselves on a platform with 5 dark fields, standing in the center field. The command "Up" refers to the upper field, the command "Down" to the lower field, the command "Left" to the left field, and the command "Right" to the right field. The player does not need to stand in the precise center of any field; just being on the dark grey area will do. Every correct action results in the four dancers showing "Thumbs up!", while a failure teleports the player to the outside. Hotkeying Arrow Shower or Double Strafe and Improve Concentration is suggested. 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.

  7. The Dancing pattern is following:

    You don't even have to perform all steps, just go straight to the last action of each step and ignore the rest!

    Step Action
    1 Up
    2 Down
    3 Left
    4 Right (Left then right)
    5 Center
    6 Center (Pose, just remain on the tile)
    7 Whatever (Improve Concentration, you don't really have to use it)
    8 Left
    9 Down (Important: Ignore what the NPC says and go straight to Right)
    10 Right (Down, right)
    11 Pose (just remain on the tile)
    12 Up (Left, Center, Right, Up)
    13 Right
    14 Up (Left, Center, Down, Up)
    15 Up (Left, Center, Down, Up)
    16 Down
    17 Left
    18 Center
    19 Arrow Shower or Double Strafe to kill poring (DS also works on Arcadia)
