Discussion Involving All Pet Jobs

[Xilk]

actually, avatars and elementals do have an independent AI, just not as advanced as Wyvern. BST pets do too some degree (unfortunately when things get hairy they sometimes switch target on you, which is annoying).

I can see not being able to tell it to use breaths on demand (although, you do it by casting magic), but I don't see why we shouldn't have a simple attack and heel command for it too. DRG obviously have a bond and communicate with their wyverns...don't see why we can't say "sick 'em boy" and "hey, get over here!"

Because Wyvern are a type of dragon, and you just don't tell Dragon's to do anything. They do what they darn well please, when they please. I hesitate to call the Dragoon the 'master' in this situation because frankly... you're just friends.

What DRGs control in this game is dragon and not a wyvern. I always caulked that up to poor editing.

Well, if you REALLY want to quibble....

In this game a dragon is something Undead. and what DRG really has is a baby Wyrm. with a Wyvern being something between a Wyrm and a raptor.

You still don't issue commands to it.

Oh, and for BST? Already have a thread on it in bst forums, we should get Skillchain + Pet. :P

As far as gear goes... The needs of each pet type are diverse enough, there are few things all the jobs would want in gear.

A wyvern is something having only legs or none, with wings and no arms. A dragon is sometihng with all 6 appendanges. A wyrm is akin to a legless lizzard, having none. And the shadow dragon, albeit draconion and undead is not the only dragon in this game. i.e. Fafnir, tiamat, etc. Which are much better examples.

Pretty sure Bahamut is the Wyrmking not the Dragonking :/

obviously I'm referring to the existing classification system in the game...

And obviously I was saying to begin with that the clasications they used were wrong.

If there is any Cannon applicable to a fictional world, it is that of the creators of the fictional world only.
I.E> consistency to world itself only...
