Dragoon Poll (Should DRG have a Wyvern?)

[SilvertearRen]

A fine answer, for the record I voted yes, but I am ok with either.

Edit : Errr you should of put a third option.

I would, but I wish Square would add a poll function to the forums.

I understand what you mean about my credibility.

But I started this poll because I am worried about the state of FFXIV's future. I wouldn't mind if we revisited the idea in 2.0, but right now I'd rather just go without a pet.

If you did not know, we WILL be getting your version of DRG come 1.21. Those of us who want a Wyvern will have to wait almost a year from now for our version of DRG. There will NOT be any alternative even if 99% of the playerbase voted pro Wyvern, the outcome would remain unchanged until the pet AI is ready to go.

251 don't want wyvern
84 do want wyvern

you are along way off 99 percent

Grandm, he means that we'll be getting a pet-less Dragoon at 1.21, and that having a pet class before 2.0 is impossible due to the pet system's implementation scheduled for 2.0.

That means we can comfortably say that we will NOT get any Wyverns or dragoon pets until 2.0, and even then that is very much in the air, dependent on how players react to the initial implementation of DRG.

in FF14 dragoons come from ishgard. yoshi has already said the dragoons quest will speak about ishgard withouht taking you there. as they have big plans for ishgard in V2.0. we also know ishgard hates dragons. so purely going on the lore of this game alone it makes no sense for dragoons to have dragons

So we will be Dragoons NOT coming from Ishgard, and may have our own way of doing things.

I would still like to see SE try to give us all what we want. I would like to see the option to quest for a pet wyvern to fight alongside us. Without taking away from those who choose not to have it.
I'm not worried about the numbers in this poll. Many people were against jump (enough for Yoshida-san to acknowledge it), and it's still being implemented. Yoshida-san seems to be trying to make everyone happy in this game.
If they try, and balancing can't be done, and the pet can't be added in the end, well then it'll be time for me to move on to a new job.

(Of course, as I said earlier, I'm not asking for them to delay bringing the DRG job into the game. The jobs will be implemented before pet jobs. DRG will be implemented, and what I'm asking is when they're ready to bring pet jobs into the game, if they could please try to add an optional wyvern pet quest then to make the rest of us happy.)

i did get that. i'm just saying i can't see the number 99% being put in the yes wyvern camp, now or in a year

i have thought of this point and from what i can tell there is only one guild in each city state. there is no reason to think its not going to be the same with jobs only having one home. if they do decide to go with dragoons having wyverns then chances are that dragoons are going to have to be renegade from ishgard. the problem with this idea is ishgard is not the empire. they are ally's

Atleast someone here can read -_-

Yes this is exactly what I mean :P

I would prefer you give LNCs a wyvern but not as a pet that fights alongside you and you'll end up with the need to nerf LNC, but as a pet you can ride and possibly fight on.

for all we know the unlock quest might have us stumble upon an ancient tome from many years past about this "Legendary Dragoon" of Ishgard who may have had a bond with a Dragon instead of "KIRR THEM ALL!"

This is actually similar to how I pictured it happening. Some legendary dragoon having a wyvern bond, and then we follow in his footsteps instead of the "kill all dragons" type. lol It could work perfectly well in the current lore.
This may be incorrect, but I heard someone say something before about a CNJ quest that involves dragoons and some wyvern statue or stone or something glowing and mentioning his master. :x I would like to know about this quest.. if it exists.
