Dragoon Suggestion

[Zantetsuken]

It would be nice if we could take a poll on whether we want Dragoons to include wyverns or not.

There are many, many players who are steadfastly against the Wyvern sidekick/pet/extension. The FFXI dragoon was a complete deviation from the FF tradition, it had horrible balance issues, and turned many people off from even trying the job (remember LOLDRG?).

I, and most other players want the DRG job to function like traditional FF dragoons, specifically Kain and Freya. The current style of TP and Combo mastery for LNC, combined with the Jump attacks in the DRG Job are the right direction.

A persistent Wyvern 'sidekick/pet/etc' for a DRG is a total non-starter for me no matter how it is implemented.

*disclaimer* In the 1.20 dats, there was introduced a model of what appears to be a large wyvern. The spoiled DRG weaponskill list includes an attack called "Wyvern Dive" which may involve the summoning of a Wyvern to make a fire attack. I would not be opposed to a Wyvern that appears as part of a 2-hour style TP move (and then leaves).

No matter how it is implemented? Either you just don't like wyverns or you are a final fantasy purist

Purist sounds about right.

Anyways there have been multiple polls on this and every time the majority has been overwhelmingly against the idea.

No need to beat a dead horse.
