No Dragoon at the End of the World

Apparently Dragoons are extinct. I didn't see any ported to the future. Does anyone have any explanation for why? Maybe the idea of a Dragoon is returning to a lost art?

I would guess that it is for the same reason that there wasn't a Monk; not enough races to show every job.

No need to over-think this, my dear.

If I remember correctly, there was not a MNK present either.

Dragoons only come from Ishgard, they're not extinct it's just very rare for someone to have the power to become a Dragoon. Monks only come from Ala Mhigo and the only Monk we know to have escaped was Widargelt. Dragoon and Monks not being present in the ending or the Grand Companies just represents this. Ishgardians don't care but the Ala Mhigans do HAVE their own unit within the Immortal Flames but none are Monks.

^thank you for that explanation. I had always wondered the reasoning for this....It makes sense now.

We had to give them a chance, right?

He couldn't get a party invite and was left in Ul'dah for the final battle :(

Dragoons could sense the mighty dragon so they all ran away and hid.

Incredibly interesting explanations. It makes sense. I also didn't even notice that the Monk was missing as well. I just found it interesting that they left them out. I guess it makes sense that they didn't duplicate races, while at the same time the Ishgardian/Ala Mhigian reason makes sense.

Hilarious. Considering this was my first 75 in FFXI (Back in like... 2006~2007?), I understand this all too well.

Jump to another Dimension and will Return in the Realm reborn.

Dragoons were being emo in Ishgard and Derplander told the Monks where the final battle was..., 'nuff said.

Some jokes just shouldn't be forced. I don't even get the reference.

I was there at the end of the world and i'm dragoon...so >.>

Haha, just to make sure everyone understands, I was not overthinking the subject. It was merely a jest to begin conversation. It was just interesting to note that Dragoons (and as noted, Monks as well) were not in the end of the world video.

And I'm not so sure Dragoon's were being emo. They seem pretty with it, man! Focused, calm, collected. Least high-strong of all the jobs if you ask me.
