Are they ever

"Wehhhhh mommy, they're getting special toys and I'm not getting any! I want some!"

That's what I'm hearing. And you know what? Tank still comes up as the most common "adventurer in need" on Duty Roulette. Even with all the incentives, there still aren't enough tanks.

But, y'know what? You're right. Let's give special class mounts to all the classes. And ninety million gil. And instant level fifty on everything.

Don't tank? That's fine. You don't get the special reward for it. Want 'em? Man up and tank.

Is all that really necessary? I understand your point of view, but really there's no reason to be a dickhead when someone is just stating an opinion.


Anyway, white mages also get a mount all to their own, so I don't really see why it would be out of the question. I often wondered about that myself. I know they included incentives specifically for tanks, but i think the main reason why tanks and sometimes healers are in such short supply is because of a lack of variety. I usually tank in MMOs myself, but neither paladin or warrior really appeal to me. I do intend on trying dark knight out in the expansion however.

Actually, looking back, I probably was a little harsh. I should probably refrain from posting after work...

Anyway, I didn't even know there WAS a CNJ mount. What point I was trying to make was when something unique is given to everyone, it stops being unique. And, I can see your point of a lack of variety in Tank/Healer, because it's hard to design around a general goal of "Keep all the things on you" and "keep everyone alive" with deviation. It's not impossible (see: preventative medicine with SCH) and high DEF vs high HP. DPS is easier because there are more ways to go "make things dead".

It is good you're willing to give tank a shot, though.
And again, sorry about being so brash.

Too bad the tank mount isnt even rewarded for roulette... It's for EX/Coil where tanks have all the incentive they need

That's kinda dumb.
