To get the Manderville Dance in FFXIV, players must play through a majority of the Hildibrand sidequest. This fan-favorite questline can be picked up from the NPC Hildibrand in Ul'dah (X:9.8, Y:8.7). The quest is called "The Rise and Fall of Gentlemen." By finishing this quest up to "The Hammer," you will be able to unlock the Manderville Dance. This quest will only become available after completing the Main Scenario Quest, "The Ultimate Weapon."

Additionally, it is possible to unlock the Manderville Mambo by playing through the Hildibrand questline until the "Don't Do the Dewprism" quest is acquired. This questline also requires the completion of the Main Scenario quests "Heavensward" and "Stormblood."

The Hildibrand questline is quite long and spans several FFXIV expansions. However, it is one of the most enjoyable and satisfying sidequests in all of FFXIV, and a majority of the community highly recommends playing through it in full.
