Question About Heavensward Story and DRG Job Quests

[SashaNishroka]

I do have an alt that I started before >_>;; she's just.... barely into the ARR storyline at all at the moment. I've tried searching just about everywhere online for the different variations to see how much the dialogue changes, but it would seem somehow no one has done a recap of either version of it yet. I just kinda wish I could do it over on my main :-/ Knew I should've stuck to finishing jobs first.

I just managed to find one video with a 50 DRG in it at Alphinaud's Way quest o_O they were still called Warrior of Light by Estinien in it. Were there only a few instances of being called Azure Dragoon. Was Azure Dragoon the main difference for the change in most of the dialogue?

afaik the only change in dialogue (that i can remember it's been like 2 years lel) that upon completing the dragoon quests in its entirety (meaning 30-50) before starting HW is that estinien will just refer to the player as an "azure dragoon." i think someone mentioned his slight personality change too and that's also something. tbf i don't see a change in dialogue to be that big of a deal bc really ur not missing anything crucial but i get why people want to have the option but... meh, thats just me.

This.
You're missing nothing important, lore wise and infos wise.
I was just really keen on doing HW as a DRG cause of immersion.
There are similar things for other jobs in the whole game as well.

Immersion is the reason I'm agitated. I didn't realize it would be a slightly different story path. I'd been leveling DRG before I quit. I got sidetracked/overwhelmed with everything to do when I came back that I forgot my plans and started "catching up". Was doing okay leveling again for a while after I unknowingly got right up to before the start of the Dragoon tie in til the spoiler demons happened in game and I started running story nonstop. Got shafted either way, try to avoid spoilers, end up getting reversed storyline events for not leveling sooner. Alt is in order...
