    It was asked ages ago for something like DRG's wyvern to return (and repeatedly too), and Yoshi basically said "no". We do have several dragonling minions which look a lot like FFXI's DRG wyvern, so that's the closest you'll get I'm sorry to say.

    Also it's clear SE have pretty much moved away from adding further (non Chocobo) companions to the Chocobo Companion system, instead we've got the Grand Company Squadrons (which can be used in certain dungeons), and the soon-to-be-added Trust NPC system that will be able to be used to take the player through the main scenario (based loosely on FFXI's ironically enough).

    I'd like to see some consitency between the three systems, companion, squadron, and trust (four if you count battle class retainers). Even if there has to be differences due to say "you can't summon this guy all the time, he's special".

    Then add OP's idea into that somewhere lol. I could see it being fairly reasonably added to the squadron system as is, since then there'd not really be a talent tree or mounting to consider (but again imo the the systems becoming more harmonious would be nice).

    Not sure why I can't call my squadron mate to help me out with a FATE no one is at for example, even if it's only a few members rather than all. Also revive our 1.0 companions somewhere into that marriage of systems, plz. :3
