Dragoon Fall Damage

[Ascended_Demon]

I mean if you want to look at in a technical fashion, the point of the Dragoon job is to take the force from those falls an turn it into the damage inflicted on the target, they are not meant to take the force of their own attacks onto themselves. Ninjas however are meant to be lithe and quick on their feet so they would train in a fashion to distribute their weight to minimize impact from falls while Dragoon is supposed to do the opposite, they want their falls to have force behind them.

EDIT: That being said, fall damage is more like an accident, people can do things that are normal in their profession all the time and still somehow end up injured so yeah, ninjas are prepared to deal with fall damage whist dragoons are not because for dragoons to do so is them intentionally holding back.

That makes alot of sense. Particularly for the lore of Dragoons and Ninjas.

For how the Dragoon meme came about, Estinien must have been shaking his head in shame for how could so many of his fellow Dragoons die in so many varying embarrassing ways. xD
