Dragoons are getting their Wyvern (not explicitly announced, Yoshi vid inside)

I'm more interested in the fact that they may allow people to go into a dungeon solo and bring out your chocobo. Since all you need is the chocobo to get a party boost, I do it all the time in the field to boost my int on BLM to party level. That would be neat, hopefully doing it solo wont involve a level sync though, would be a nice way to level the chocobo off dungeon exp.

Yes, but a Light Party with two players and two chocobos does not give you a Limit Break meter.

Well since I don't like the current Dragoon design I'm gonna switch it back to Lancer and use a flying minion to accompany me throughout solo content until Dragoons get wyvern/drake/dragon pet or lancer's second job revolves around it.

My CCS will focus more on thaumaturge and conjurer.

Fun things are fun and I prefer fun over "muh damage".

That's just it.... "fun" is subjective. I have "fun" with how dragoons are currently designed. I can respect that others had "fun" with how XI dragoons were designed. I personally do not want a wyvern added to the dragoon, however, there's always a possibility such an option could be the lancer's second job (or an advanced job if the storyline/time pass long enough).

Considering a Dragoon and Coearthas individual's entire purpose in life is killing wyverns...why do people expect this to be a thing?

Like it has been explained before. You are an adventurer not a citizen of Coearthas.

Yeah but it still defeats the purpose oh the history of the Dragoon's in this game and others.
Since I am reading the only time they had a pet, was in FFXI. Don't think Kain Highwind had a pet lol.
We already have 2 pet classes lol.
We need a Beastmaster class if people want all that. I still think if you all want a dragon or something, they should make it a
Limit Break...I bet we're just going to get some stupid minion.

[Edellis]

But it's not like Wyverns are like Chocobos in FF12 or anything. They aren't just wild creatures you can battle on the field who can also happen to be tamed.

They, like, intentionally cooperate to murder Coearthas citizens.

Yet there was the boy and the dragon gay.

Regardless like I said you're not a Coearthas citizen so its conflict is unrelated to you. I'll stick to Lancer and have fun.

I understand were everyone is coming from and you all brought up some good points^^ I cannot see an instance were dragoons control a wyvern per-se, mostly due to the sacrifice in dmg (This was no fun in XI, lol). However, I believe there were friendly dragons in past FF titles (Was it II?). They could make a branching job that uses these dragons as companions; aka the "Using the enemies best weapon against them"

In Skyrim; (different game, I know), dragons were a feared enemy whom would attack settlements; however, a couple were companions; paarthurnax, odahvling (Whom was tight with the main antagonist, who is a dragon), and the undead dragon. Not saying that dragons could be companions, but not saying they cannot neither. My opinions pertaining to this are up in the air "Shrugs"

Edit: Dragon vs Dragon made for some epic sky battles in Skyrim^^

I still don't understand this need to have a wyvern. It's part of the reason I avoided Drg in ffxi.

quite a lot of people disagree with your belief that DRG was inferior because of the wyvern. I'm not going to argue with you on the point of it but should they decide to add the Wyvern I'll hope they add another job for it rather than mess with the existing DRG. they could call it "Wyvern Knight" or perhaps "Wyvern Master" but if they have the Wyvern I really hope they dont make it a tank class. and they leave the Wyvern a Companion like XI DRG rather than a pet.

I think if they did a new job like that they should make the Ishgard the ones that give it to you just to add a cool twist to the story ^^
