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

[Elexia]

*Checks*

Nope, still seriously breaks FFXIV lore. No Wyvern this game. Again, I'm still in support of perhaps having an optional Wyvern mount/companion ala chocobo. But how to fit it into FFXIV lore is going to be a barrier the writers have to get through.

Personally, I would just like to see better crit performance (higher crit damage and frequency, perhaps a piety mod on crits.)

Otherwise I'm fairly content with "a Lancer that jumps".

I see that you're only a 40 lnc and probably dragoon, therefore you definitely should quit now while you're ahead. We (Dragoons) derive power from Dragons, we can also tame a Drake if we so chose to.

Yoshida left the door wide open for a pet for Dragoons. Btw, LNC/DRG is already not as powerful as other DD (especially in terms of AoE) and it lacks a pet, so the Pet isn't the reason balance will or will not be bad, it's up to the battle team to properly balance it as a whole, which is why DRG in XI was one of the few melees that could actually solo things because of its pet wyvern. This was before /DNC.

And to add to that a bit, DRG back in 04~06 was a desirable DD class until the changed TP gain mechanics on multi-hit WSs, Penta-Spam from a DRG w/ the +acc it had could, even while it's wyvern was dead and waiting on the crazy ass 2hr recast, hold it's own.

Sadly we've nothing like that kind of raw dmg output in this, while other jobs do, our dmg output is also hurt by the -acc WSs we were given. These things kind of scream, "Call wyvern" > Wyvern present buffs + Wyvern dmg output added to our own + Wyvern AoE breath attacks. Wouldn't that be nice?

I don't disagree with all the people that say DRG should be able to roll out w/o a wyvern in tow and still be a beast, just that since as is it can't a wyvern along side us (that doesn't die? it's HP are part of ours, while we're alive so is it) could fill some, if not all, of the gaps we have as a job.
