    Why do the Moogle only have one minion?

    I just finished the ARR beast tribe quests yesterday, and today went back to purchase all of the minions. I decided to make sure I had all the HW ones as well (which I finished a while ago) and noticed that the Moogles only have one minion you can purchase. All 7 of the other beast tribes offer two! Why were we shortchanged on the Moogles, and is this going to be corrected at any time?

    Maybe because there are already several moogle minions from previous content, and the designers either couldn't think of another, or didn't want to flood us with yet another slight variation on the same thing?

    Though that theory is hard to credit considering the number of mounts we have based on the same old unicorn model...

    Probably because we already have the set of Primogs as well as the Delivery Moogle. I'll never say no to more minions though.

    Idea: Good King Moggle Mog XII minion! Something similar to the primal minions in terms of design. Get on it SE

    We actually got the moogle slippers instead of the "first" minion (when you would be able to purchase the first minions from other tribes it unlocked those instead).

    But yeah, there are alreay several moggle minions in the game - thinking of how they only come as promo-codes it would have been cool to get one from the beast tribe... same goes for a moggle outfit, kinda - pretty sure we didnt got one because it was a reward from last years(?) fanfast stream (...that you had to pay for)

    (since we got the shoes it seems pretty intended, so no correction needed)

    The other beast tribes had two similar things, like a sahagin and a specific named Sahagin (Sea Devil). Moogles gave us a dragonet (which, honestly, I was hoping for as I was doing the quests. I didn't look what the rewards were prior), it didn't have to be a moogle of some kind. A mini of the mount, or a smaller version of the drake we used for quests, or even one of the dragons we spoke with. Not that I would say no to a moogle minion, since from what I know, the only ones in game are bonus code rewards only (meaning you spent RL money on them).

    Keep in mind here that the second minion is always only a recolor of the first one! So its less work, designwise and so on. The moogle minion is supposed to look like our good dragon-friend Khal Myk, so a recolor would make less sense here - and apparently they decided not to design a second, new minion (and gave us shoes instead... comfy looking shoes, that I'd like irl...)

    Lore-wise, the other beasttribes' minions were one of the "good" faction, and one of the antagonist faction. Moogles didn't really have that; they were working more to prove themselves rather than fight against their oppressive, primal-influenced kin.

    Won't disagree that a second red or white colored dragonette minion would have been nice...
