And for everyone refusing to even try the job without the pet being there? Less competition for drg drops for me wooooooooooo!! No seriously guys, give it a shot and *then* write it off if it ain't your cup of tea. But please not to be changing my primary job without even giving it a fair shake or a taste, hmm? There's some really delicious dark vibes there, being seduced by power, etc etc. Refuse to give spoilers but it's one of the better job stories, I feel. (Although it was better in 1.0.) Wouldn't be the first time a dragoon was being pulled two different directions, see also: Kain Highwind.
And again... Why not just split stats when the pet is out and fight with you and add give it back to the DRG when the pet is not out? That way the DRG would loose non of his power but ppl had the option to fight with the pet If they like.
