Dragoon pet

[Efrye]

It won't make dragoons weaker to have a Wyvern on their side. All it does is split your damage, but the total isn't going to change. Why are so many people hung up on seeing big numbers?

Personally I'm a bit disappointed; going by the feedback in this thread, pet dragons probably won't happen.

Exactly what this poster said! Just add in both dmg from player and wyvren

I agree with you. we need more then 4 melee jobs doing the same thing. Having a pet will make dragoon different from WAR and MNK....

I think it's because some of us would like to play as a different kind of Dragoon from FFXI.

To me, having a wyvern for a pet is not true Final Fantasy.

See, the funny thing about this statement "Play a different kind of Dragoon from FFXI", is aside from Freya and FFTT, DRG has always been the same and FFXI's DRG was actually a different kind of Dragoon.

It already is different. MRD/WAR = AoE, LNC/DRG = Single target, PGL/MNK is hit-or-miss right now but will likely be the "blink tank" of FFXIV. ARC will go the way of buffer, GLA is a tank. They are adding two pet classes in the future (Summoner & Beastmaster). So what you're saying is, make three pet classes, a tank, an aoe trash tank, and evade tank, with no strict melee available? No thanks.

Yes but only if its a 2h like ability, or a final 2h combo like Yoshi said in some interview.

Thats the only way I would have a pet.

Please Yoshi, I beg you...... no mini-pony-dragon..... please

consider what happens after the pet dies, or the duration you can have it outside is up? that total performance you talk about will change.

Keeping your pet alive will sacrifice more time and effort. The solution is to make things simple. No splitting or sacrifice of strength and power for a pet. That will equal in maximum performance by the dragoon. So, no to pets. Dragoon is better off without it
