How to Get Mad God’s Dancing Shoes Mythic Leads in ESO
To dig for the Mad God’s Dancing Shoes Mythic Leads in Solstice you will need to have access to the Scrying and Excavation skill-lines. Moreover, this requires owning or having access to the Greymoor Chapter DLC.
The Greymoor chapter introduces the Antiquities system, which allows you to scry for leads. However, if you’re new to the system, you’ll need to progress until you reach Scrying Level 7 and unlock the Antiquarian Insight IV passive before accessing higher-tier Antiquities.

- Hunger-leather Heel

How to Use the Mad God’s Dancing Shoes Mythic in PvE and PvP?
The Mad God’s Dancing Shoes mythic can be helpful in PvP context where dodge rolling is common to avoid damage and create space. Multiple sets exist currently to increase damage after dodge rolling, and will likely synergize well with the mythic.
However, some of the bonuses are very specific and not useful. For instance, Major Expedition is gained after dodge rolling with a bow equipped, and thus a redundant buff. Therefore, the Mad God’s Dancing Shoes is a fun niche mythic that could be useful if spamming dodge rolls.
