    Given the cultural significance of the samurai in japan.
    Eating thunder and crapping lightning would be there bread and butter?

    I mean hell the samurai occupies the same spot as the knight does for medieval Europe and the cowboy/gunslinger of the American old west.

    There cultural icons.
    Yet, they always take a back seat to ninja's from a company based in Japan. I think that's a bit Weird.

    Same here. Especially after Yoshida saying having a pet would cause them to make the Dragoon himself weaker.

    I'd much rather be the badass combo/crit class he was talking about.

    Yoshida-san has been all about compromise with everythign else. I don't see why they couldn't make the pet optional. If you have it your strength is split between wyvern and dragoon. Also make it so the wyvern only gets K.O.'d when you do and not by itself, so you can't suddenly be knocked down to half strength.
    It could be quested, and those who choose not to use it remain at full strength.
    There could be lore that makes sense for those who choose to have a wyvern companion.

    I don't think I'll play dragoon without a wyvern personally. It just doesn't fit my character.

    I did and when I was parsed against other DDs they'd be like "loldrg" I reply "Now add Kagero's damage too.." then it ends with "... I hate you! -_-" and I wrap it all up with "IN YO FACE! <3"

    Anyway - I'd like a pet.
    you know why my Lancer is still level 1? Because I am leveling all the other jobs I want to a point first, Lance > Dragoon is the last thing I will be doing, so I can enjoy it to its fullest

    If they go with Pets for all classes, other then SUM/BST style ones I really would prefer generic pets that can be called by all classes/jobs..

    The few people wanting the FFXI style DRG ain't enough imo to warrant chaining a huge chunk of the lore, especially over something like this.

    Because the lore spin we are going to get for Bard won't be fun enough for them to explain?!!!

    I'm not much of a lancer already anyway, but if I had to choose I'd prefer no Wyvern. Just a personal preference. Don't debuff my job so I can have a mediocre substitute flying next to me. I'd rather be at 100% with some 'dragon abilities' instead. Or something of the like. I'm nay on the Wyverns.

    Basically, this would take the form of another Job entirely. Which I think would be a great idea! It'd just also probably happen some time -after- 2.0 is already in play.

    Trying to shoehorn two rather different mechanics into the same Job would be a recipe for disaster, balance-wise, and their resources are stretched too thin right now to try and make this work in a satisfactory manner.

    In any event the entire discussion seems predicated on a mistranslation of what Yoshida said in the first place, just like the 'jumping confirmed!' threads, so...
