Why do xenons use the snipe skill at bosses?

Hi guys I'm wondering why every bossing video I see of xenons, they always choose snipe over add dance. I though on jt's Dpm chart, blade dance boosts xenon up like 10 ranks in the Dpm chart as opposed to snipe, but people are still using snipe to boss. So can anyone tell me why it's better? This is also considering the fact that decent si is allowed so xenon hits speed cap

Cuz some people don't find their passion in dancing

I assume so unless snipe can ohko it.

Ahh that makes sense. So at stationary bosses you should spam blade dance but at moving bosses it's snipe?

Mobility is lower when using blade dancing.

Well I just watched a xenon soloing cvallum post need hitting 50m and he was still using snipe. And regardless blade dancing does more hits than snipe I think
