[DRG] A possible job-specific companion?

[Ryan77k]

You'll have to forgive me if this is a repeat topic.

I've recently gotten into FFXI again. I say "again", though I did only start playing in November of 2015. With that said, I went and unlocked the DRG job for fun, knowing full-well that they are a pet class with their own wyvern friend that runs around and helps them in combat. The idea, I think is pretty neat.

Then I had this weird crystallising moment, after staying up for entirely too late. Given that we've now wrapped up the Dragonsong war more or less, and Ishgard and Dragons are friends-ish, would it not be kind of neat if as a little side quest you were able, as a DRG, to get a Wyvern companion that could fight with you in battles, much like the current system we have with chocobos?

Kind of a silly thought, I know. But I'm genuinely curious how people would feel about it, if it were to happen.

If it helped you in any ways drg's would need to be nerfed. They are already balanced.

I really just meant that they could essentially act as a chocobo glamour for DRGs only. So, same stuff the chocobos can do, just with a different coat of paint.

I liked dragoons better when they wanted to murder every dragon on the face of the planet.

Im down then.

I feel like at this point in the story, any class could have a valid claim to a dragon companion glamour (as we all went through the dragon storyline regardless), I would like to see this, but it would involve the same amount of effort as egi glamour (though we will see with GC mercenaries)

Which Dragoons were those? FFXIV Dragoons never shared that view. Maybe Estinien did but he was never the model Dragoon.

Sure, but you can only summon it every 2 hours, and if it dies you become a worthless.
