As much as I hate the Dragoon job now, that is pitiful. Any decent DRG could out-DD any other decent melee DPS class in FFXI without the wyvern, all it took was some knowledge and skills. Hell, you'll never find any other job capable of soloing Greater Colibri for 10k xp/hr at 75 (at least pre-abyssea).




Why not have a dragon pet optional then regardless of class or job or exclusive to a job that actually makes sense to have a dragon pet, like Dark Knight?
1) Drg was the pet wyvern job in FFXI, we have identified with the jump, AF and class identity in general of the classical dragoon being the wyvern class. This was a step forwards even though it wasn't very well implemented in FFXI, they should improve it with FFXIV rather than going backwards.

2) Don't mess with DRK. Drk should be that heavy DD with dark magic spells, not a pet job. How does it make sense to give DRK a wyvern? This is not where it "properly belongs".

The only ways of implementing a wyvern would be by either
a) Giving drg a wyvern. (which is where it belongs if implemented)
b) Making a new job, hopefully a second job for lancer. But then they would most likely not give them jump and drg AF, which is missing half the point of adding it in the first place for us who identified with how Drg was in FFXI.

Like I stated earlier, there are two full DD classes. Monk and Drg, why not separate them properly?
And if I understood it right from the interviews, Drg was getting the self combo system, why not make that for MNK? (seeing as there are more possible combos with 4 limbs than a lance).
