Dragoon pet

[SilvertearRen]

Did I mention that people think way too much along the lines of XI?

If you don't like wyvern as a visual element (I need to find a synonym for this...), I can understand that perfectly. But all those arguments based on damage and dying pets and whatnot don't make a whole lot of sense. As mentioned before, there I many ways of implementing them - It doesn't have to be all or nothing.

Pets are generally supposed to be interactable in PVP. Making them immortal seems stupid, especially in PVP parties where you can just turtle up and let the pet kill everything in sight while the party heals each other and the pet.

You are just too wrapped up in the idea of having a dragon/wyvern as a pet for the class.

News Flash: They're giving FFXIV vets one when 2.0 comes out. It's called a drake. And pets/mounts in 2.0 will likely be combat companions, too. So in a sense, you are ALREADY getting a goddamn pet for your Dragoon. Just not directly.

If you ask me, you're being silly - just like I am when it comes to debating endgame content.
