Is Red Mage really easier than Dancer? I love Dancer but it aint very hard to use

I thought Red Mage must be the easiest class when I unlocked it and got it to 80. But then I did dancer.

Red mage isn't particularly hard, but there's some complexity when it comes to choosing the right moment for all your oGCDs. As a dummy, I often have trouble picking a good time for Acceleration, it seems to come up when my mana's like, sort of high, but not quite close to 80, and then I'm not sure when to use it and sometimes I end up wasting it or delaying too long. Or I'm not sure the right time to use Embolden. Or the cooldowns of the mana-doubler and the in/out jumps don't line up quite right, idk. I'm bad, but those are a few of the things that I struggle with when trying to play RDM at a proper level.

Whereas on dancer I just. There's just no difficulty really. The only hard part is pooling exactly 3-4 fans for your burst phase and then spending them all properly, depending on proc luck you might lose one of your flourish'd skills sometimes if your saber dance bar fills up over and over again in those 20 seconds.
