Dragoon Poll (Should DRG have a Wyvern?)

[Inaaca]

That image was made before the 2.0 announcement. Yoshi didn't get all these Dragoon pet questions until the interviews following the 2.0 announcement, which caused him to consider it. That image is also subject to change, as is everything in the 2.0 PDFs.

But most of the Opinions are against the idea, so the image is correct an will hopefully stay that way..

This is actually similar to how I pictured it happening. Some legendary dragoon having a wyvern bond, and then we follow in his footsteps instead of the "kill all dragons" type. lol It could work perfectly well in the current lore.
This may be incorrect, but I heard someone say something before about a CNJ quest that involves dragoons and some wyvern statue or stone or something glowing and mentioning his master. :x I would like to know about this quest.. if it exists.

The quest you speak of is the rank 30 and 36 CNj missions (Spoilers ahead)

In the mission an Ishgard infrantry enter the shroud to conduct business with a Conjurer of the wild. A man who was taken by the elementals as a child for an unseen purpose whose home nation I would assume is Ishgard. After reaching the rendevous point the Ishgard Dragoon(calvary not class) isattacked by elementals after running in fear from what he thought was a dragon.

You save him, you meet him back at Owl's Nest where you see more Ishgard Dragoons (Again mounted Calvary not Dragon Knight Dragoons) where he thanks you, you mind fondle him to relive his memory of what happened and you see a amber statue that kinda-sorta resembles a Dragon. End of quest one

Quest 2 the Wild Conjurer wants you to escort him to Ishgard and after doing so is snatched away just at the map border by the elementals who tell him "Not yet...." and you meet him back at that statue where you mind fondle him and saw how he was taken by the wilds. He was attacked as a kid by a pack of wolves and after you save him an elemental flies out and takes him as their pawn for some unseen/unsaid plan. He asks if by "Not yet" do they intend to set him free one day to only be answered in silence.

End of Spoiler

There is the quest in almost full detail. from what I saw he Ishgard Dragoons are not apart of the REAL Dragon Knight class but the actual meaning of Dragoon in Japan which is Mounted Calvary.

My best guess is the Dragoons of old Ishgard were the real Dragon Knight style Dragoons that fell prey to someone's betrayal or some kinda misfortune and these new Dragoons of Ishgard are total Dragon hating extremist.

Just want to show everyone the picture here. Now Look at the Dragoon(Kain Highwind) Look at the Dragoon again. I don't see a wyvern around him. He certainly looks kickass, and anyone can tell that is a Dragoon. Even his title reads "Dragonslayer"

Thats a title that he obtained from killing some sorta NM that he liked and used it has nothing to do with the class unless warriors like Romeo(left side) kill any and all females they come across.

Thanks for the info on that quest. It sounds a little different from what I've heard, so I'd still like to see it myself. I have a character close to 30 CNJ. Just have to do some leveling~ :3

He killed it! D: Oh noes my baby dragon! The quest to unlock Dragoon is to have to kill the baby dragon you had in FFXI :P

Dragoon when summons wyvern takes a slight debuff counteracting an overpowered job. Problem solved. Want to be the one dealing great deals of damage then dont summon wyvern. If you wish to do a good amount of damage and have a dragon by your side to do dragon breaths then summon. Sorry if this was already said. I don't read through all the trash in this forum anymore. We need to come to a compromise and stop bickering like old ladies.

No. People have made the suggestion, and it's not viable. I'd rather not have a debuff, period. Splitting up your stats in any way whatsoever reduces your individual capacity.

Ability: Dragon's Call
Summons a wyvern to fight with you at your side. After 2.0 seconds, an Ishgardian dragoon falls from the sky and impales the beast to the ground while screaming "DIEEEE!" before disappearing.
