    What Mount (or Minion) do you think just kind of "goes with" each Job?

    While I certainly love me some mount-collecting, I really enjoy trying to "pair" mounts (and sometimes minions) with each of my Jobs. I dunno; it helps kind of sell the "fantasy" of each job, to me.

    Some feel kind of obvious; like the Dark Knight, there are loads of dark-looking mounts that suit them (I personally learn towards Grani, the Shadowbringers CE mount). I currently went for a whole "Odin" theme for my PLD (and I'll defend my Sleipnir purchase til MY DYING BREATH!), but I have a feeling I'll switch to the Endwalker CE mount once it's released.

    Most other jobs, though, I really struggle with. I FEEL like Kirin kinda-sorta goes with the Samurai, while the Firebird feels like a good Monk mount. The Dragoon, I honestly struggle a lot with. For Warrior, for some reason I like Rathalos with it! If I have the Witch's Broom, I feel like that would be a good Black Mage mount.

    What about you? What mounts (or minions) do you think kind of "match" each job?

    Dragoon is easy for minion. Midgardsomr.

    Don't know enough minions or mounts to discuss the others.

    The tanks all receive pretty appropriate mounts (if you do it enough).

    Ironically, I feel like the "Panther" (black coeurl) is more suited to the Ninja than a Dark Knight. I do like the idea of a Lion, but it's a little savage-looking for a Paladin, imo.

    I use Midgardsomr for my Dragoon when I'm feeling cheeky, otherwise it's my purple chocobo with Dragoon barding for daily use. I hardly play any other combat classes/jobs, so those two work well for me.

    The obvious anything mechanical fits Machinist. Especially the SDS Fenrir and Cruise Chaser.

    I've done this very thing with assigning a specific mount to each role, but I usually just use the griffin which is assigned to my main (PLD), due to my character's backstory being Ala Mhigan. I had to do a bit of head scratching to make some Jobs fit with a mount though, but I'm happy with the result!

    GLA/PLD - Griffin
    MRD/WAR - Midgardsormr (due to the whole 'Warrior of Light' thing )
    DRK - ahriman
    GNB - SDS Fenrir (it fits my GNB glam )
    CNJ/WHM - Unicorn
    SCH - Forgiven: Reticence
    AST - Archon Throne
    ACN/SMN - Fenrir (no relation to the SDS Fenrir)
    THM/BLM - Witch's Broom
    RDM - Typhon
    BLU - Laurel Goobbue
    LNC/DRG - Wyvern
    ARC/BRD - Bomb Palanquin
    MCH - Magitek Armour
    PGL/MNK - Coeurl
    ROG/NIN - Syldra
    SAM - Yol
    DNC - Marid

    I intend to replace AST and WHM's ones with the Chocobo Carriage and Magicked Carpet respectively from the Online Store eventually, but money is tight right now so that's been put on the backburner.
