Dragoon pet

[Jinko]

Don't want the pet personally, I would rather Dragoon be a really powerful DPS.

Maybe they could make it so that if you summon a pet you lose some of your strength to the wyvern, that way both camps are happy.

Better yet, just grab yourself Beastmaster and go tame a Basalisk or one of those big red lizard things :P

[Eruantien]

Maybe I like Fairytail too much but thats kinda what I imagine when I think dragoon, have skills like dragon scale armour, dragon breath, dragon talon attack. Much like how blue mage would work except dragoons only can gain skills from dragon creatures

I have to agree with Tonkra on this; Why can't we just have both as separate jobs and be done with the discussion? There are hardcore DPS'ers who want to hit hard and not be inhibited in endgame by a wyvern pet nerf and there are people who want the XI-style Dragoon class.

because Yoshi-P asked us for our opinions on having a wyvern or not

[Buddhsie]

The biggest problem in FFXI was keeping the wyvern alive, if this was no issue in XIV i wouldn't mind it. Still I'd rather not have it, just to keep the damage from the dragoon higher.

[AlphaDragoon]

No, no no a million times NO.

NO EFFING PETS. We don't want XI Dragoons Yoshida, we want REAL Dragoons.

[Marcellus_Cassius]

Another vote for NO PET WYVERN!

[Tonkra]

It seems like there are many people in here "i want to have the most dps" -> [Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XIV FORUM Guidelines.]-> against variety
(sorry to say so, but thats what this discussion seems to be like)

it doesnt mean that all in all a dragoon with wyvern pet would make less damage it would mean, that the drg itself would do a little less dmg than before.

maybe it could mean, that drg+wyvern would make a bit more dmg than drg now after 1.21. on his own.



BUT me... is personally for 2 jobs. one for the wyvern loving community.. and one for the "[Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XIV FORUM Guidelines.]" community.

problem solved.

No, no no a million times NO.

NO EFFING PETS. We don't want XI Dragoons Yoshida, we want REAL Dragoons.

well lancer as it is now is a REAL drg... abillities like "dragon claw" etc.? or is it just me?
wohoo the "jump attack" is missing.. forgot about it

[InfiniDragon]

As someone who has loved the Dragoon class since Kain Highwind, my answer is a resounding NO.

I want real Dragoons, high damage and the Jump ability. I've hated pet classes in every single MMO I've used them in, and if Dragoons ended up with a wyvern like FFXI, I'd sadly have to pick another job. Don't listen to those live letter comments alone devs, there are plenty of fans that are perfectly happy, ecstatic even over your current direction with the Dragoon class. Stick to your guns.

Oh, you mean THE ICONIC DRAGOON ATTACK? Yeah, it IS missing. Not a Dragoon without Jump, period.

dragoon wont receive a jump attack till 2.0.
so about what are we talking about?


Lancer = Dragon 1.21?
you have already your dragoon ingame in form of lancer. my opinion. (oh wait the class name is not dragoon, so its not a real dragoon!)

If you're so insistant on having a pet wyvern, why not have a wyvern pet for beastmaster, or another branch of that class?

I love the old school dragoon type a la Kain. The sheer power and character of the job is what makes me want to play it
