Why are there no Dragoons in any of the non-gameplay trailers?
Even in the EOE trailer they have the other 5 jobs, but no Dragoon. Why were there no Dragoons fighting in the War? or Monk's for that matter.
Why is it only a 5 man party?
I need Farnehawles!
Discuss! Or enlighten me if you know.
No Dragoons Anywhere!

05-07-2013, 06:46 PMAlaltusBecause, there is only 2 Azure Dragoon as far as the story is concerned, You the player and Estinien who is the antagonist of the questline. That may or may not change in the ARR questline but right now if they had another Azure Dragoon, it would make a contradiction in the story between your character and the one on the screen.Quote:

exacly, lore-wise it can exist only one dragoon per era, and the story is already contradicting right now because in the game now are 2 : yourself and Estinien
protip: you can't also see any monk in the trainer for a similar reason.The order of monks has been almost completely wiped out years ago, with only few survivors. More of it here (also, shameless self-promotion): http://unendingjournal.blogspot.it/2...of-rhalgr.html -

They all used jump at the same time, so they're up above.

The party in the vid played too much XI. The DRG is still waiting for an invite.

That robe is supposed to be one-of-a-kind, and created from a unique elemental that only appeared because of the Seventh Umbral Era. (It volunteered! It's bad enough I have to wear a living thing, but couldn't they give me longer pants?)Quote:

(confirmed to be the female) -

I can't take credit for this I didn't make this joke up but would like to give tribute to the one who did! (who ever you are, I salute you!)
There was a Bastokian, a Windurstian, a Jeunian and a Sandorian on an airship to Kazam...
The Bastokian picks up a Zinc ore and says, "There's too many of these in Bastok!" and tosses it from the ship.
Enter the Windurstian and says,"There's too many of these in Windurst!" and tosses a Crawler Calculus from the ship.
"Well, too many of these in SanD'oria!" says the Sandorian, he picks up Orcish axe and throws it over the side.
The Jeunian picks up a Dragoon(looking for party), She says,"Too many of these in Jeuno!" tosses the drg from the ship.
Hence the last of all the Dragoons.
