I favor the DoM classes, but Lancer is my prefered DoW class. I never played dragoon. In FFXI i played mage classes. I was a red mage before red mages were cool.

All that being said. I have always loved pet classes in general. FFXI, EQ, EQII, EQOA, I loves petclasses in all of these.

You have no ides how much I await pets in XIV. I have developed interest in LNC and DRG to the point that I feel it would be my prefered class.

Unless of coarse we get Bard. Thats my top class choice. They need to make Bards with a beast charm. Music does tame the savage beast after all. EQOA mastered the manner in which to give bards the ability to charm. I would love to see a similar idea here. Otherwise I am going the path of whatever mellee type class can have a pet.
