Do you want Dragoon to have a pet!? (poll)

Firsst of all, if you just wanted pet, BST or other class/job that are coming is going to fill that role. Leave DRG ALONE!

Wow I never expected soo many to get so emotionally attached to a job. I suppose that change is "bad" after all. Check my other posts though and see if there isn't something that could maybe make us both happy. ....

As for dmg nerf solution, when your wyvern is summoned it requires a bit of your lifeforce to keep it under control, thus your overall stats drop a bit, but overall the 2 of you are stronger than just yourself, when your wyvern isn't present your able to fight at your full strength losing the benifit of all of the wyvern's abilities but having your max stats in full effect.
If you want a pet you got it, If you don't your not gimped.
Problem Solved.

well you are new to the forums hehe, the DRG pet discussion gets rather heated, there have been multiple threads about it over the last year and a half and so far the overwhelming majority has been anti-pet as for the previous statement about every FF being different you are correct but you will notice trends with all of them you mentioned biggs, wedge, and cid but also jobs/class/roles have stayed pretty close throughout the series.

I don't disagree, I haven't posted alot, not because I'm new to the forums or the game but rather because shortly after the close of beta and the failed launch I left the game and returned to XI full time, I wouldn't share thoughts/opinions about this game while I wasn't playing it, that wouldn't be fair of me at all, to just spew crap based on what the last update notes said is not something I'd do. Since I have returned to the game full-time, and don't see myself leaving again for a fairly long time (abyssea/dyna reform/uncapped CoP...) FFXI was ruined for me.

As for the fairly similar jobs/classes/races and what have you, your right they do stay mostly the same, a little better or worse w/ each game that incorporates them, but always evolving. I think that in the name of always slightly different, slightly better, slightly evolved, the argument may still be "no pet" but then in the name of changing it some "what"? Or should we just pull Kain/Cecil/Golbez around and get back to the "roots"?
