Can we -please- just have a dragon?

I remember seeing dragon art in one of the "Making of" videos...looked like storyboard art for a cutscene with an iron gate in the background.

YES!!!!

10 bucks the dragon shown as the first artist vidoe will be in the raid.


0:19 in the vidoe

You've got my support.

I should probably also point this out, from the updated Grand Companies page:

Before I proceed, pray permit me to ponder a pair of points. First, it is common knowledge that the Dzemael Darkhold was intended to be Ishgard’s bastion in their continuing conflict against dragonkind, a flawless fortification from where they would wage war against their ancient adversaries. Second, it had earlier been revealed that the Ishgardians had met with a quandary in the quarrying effort, which should have triggered a tangible tightening of defenses. What formidable force, then, could have mastered the martially minded Ishgardians in a position as well-defended as the Darkhold?

Dragons? Hmmmm.

sweet :) as long as it is not like the dragon in xarcabard in wings. (i effin hate that thing) who flies aroind and dive bombs players but you can't really fight back.

If you want dragons so bad WoW has several. then on 11.11.11 TSE skyrim will have dynamic drahons that come out of no where and well... >.> ::drools:: be epc dragons pillaging picking stuff up. destroying towns. ^^ can't wait.

But ya ffxiv could use some dragons i loce dragons. I want bahamut to be in his sepentine form and you know come back to life. (if the dead dragon around the ship is ineeded behamut) he is my fav ff summon. and i love his neo bahamut and bahamut zero forms as well. I HATE wyrmkin bahamut from ff11 and ffx. ; ;

So many possibilities!

Bam!

/bow down to your Superior Dragon Master....

I remember my first dragon fight in FFXI, not too shabby for being @ level 20 or so.

FFXIV should be a step up or two from that generation of MMOrs, a higher challenge. What if we fight our first dragon at rank 50 while @ higher progression on the main scenario (missions). Maybe some quests will have dragon fights, so far I haven't seen any =(

When there is dragons, there must be a Ruby Dragon, Bahamut, Neo Bahamut, Zero Bahamut, Bahamut Fury and a Shinryu! If only wishes do come true~

Ifrit coming in 1.19... He's not quite a dragon, but he's cooler then that dog-like dragon we fought in 2-3(the one you spoke of). Yoshida uttered of the lvl cap increasing once every 1-2 years. Should they follow through with this, maybe first dragon fight at 50 won't seem too far in comparasin.

The Rank 2-3 Dragon was a pushover, I soloed it as a Blue/Dancer

you are skilled. lol your talking about a level 30 dragon on the 2nd chapter of the very beginning of ffxi you soloed it as one of the best most broken job combos in the game lol that doesn't make it a pushover. You had a significant advantage, years of skill and experience.

Why dont they hype the crap out of their concept arts instead of relegating it to the sidelines
