Maybe I'm overstating the importance here, but I never heard of anyone who played Dragoon for the polearm. They wanted a freaking dragon.

Either spend the extra time balancing, or if it just doesn't work for whatever reason, don't add it. How different from Lancer is it even going to be then?
Actually, I did want to play Dragoon in FFXI for the polearm, and definately not because I wanted "a freaking dragon." Dragoon was never about having a dragon until FFXI; it was about the embodiment of dragons or being dragonbane.
