Pet was the reason DRG was bad in FFXI, though. Under ideal circumstances, a dragoon was as good as other DDs. The problem came when your wyvern died and it had a 2 hour cooldown. Your damage was significantly reduced and unfortunately this happened a lot. Add in the fact that they had some pretty bad skill chain weaponskill and it made them very undesirable.
