  • An example dance-cast-sequence: "CSCUC"
  • Note that you cannot have two movement moves in a row, for example, the sequence "CLRLR" will not work, but "CLCRC" would work
  • To begin a dance cast, first right click with the dance-cast-item, then perform the moves, then right click again with the item to cast
