Wanted to "jump" in here (get it?) and give our dragoons some cool tidbits on what's in store for them.

After we complete our highest priority tasks of adjusting puppetmaster, scholar, and the firepower of warrior, we would like to add on to the adjustments we made to Wyverns in the 9/19 major version update by adjusting dragoons themselves. We'll be sure to let you know all the details once they become finalized!

Also, this may not be implemented at the same time as the dragoon adjustments, but we plan on adding "Healing Breath IV" to Wyverns and increasing the number of status ailments that can be cured by "Remove Breath."

Hmmm... 5 drg/mage's and a thf in a party with that level of cures being spammed, and upgraded hard to kill wyverns? Gotta try that party set up against some NM for giggles.

Why would I want to change my wyvern's color when he's already perfect?

More so than armor or color customization, I'd like to see a gradual phase of growth in your wyvern in various models that advance based on level.
Would be nice to have some physical and aesthetic changes to your wyvern to see it develop in both appearance and attributes alike.
But don't mistaken it for having one of these things following you at all times.



Perhaps something a little more subtle, like chocobo beaks and talons having various forms suited towards various purposes.

Brainstorm: Give wyverns "stances" suited towards defensive, offensive or supportive situations, thus granting bonuses and traits based on whichever is chosen. Perhaps double attack/haste for offensive, PDT MDT reduction for defensive, and breath potency for supportive >.>

A mini Wyrm would be cool D:

The Monster Wyverns look nothing like DRG wyverns. DRG wyverns look like baby Wyrms

they literally just gave wyvern DT-40% not PDT, not MDT, not BDT.. but DT-40.... and you still want more? lol

and deep breathing is a meritable ability.. wyverns get good buffs as it is, honestly.

I wasn't wanting more specifically, I was merely brainstorming.
I'm not sure what else would specifically help a defensive stance should it ever come into fruition. However, I still like my idea rather than a direct dragoon ability.
But the whole stance thing would give passive benefits rather than direct ones via that are conditional of job ability use.

But really, I'm just talking out of my *** on what would be cool for future updates, by no means is it meant to be taken seriously as a formal request or demand.

I've always thought it'd be cool if your wyvern looked different depending on type of wyvern it was.

Offensive is more feral/agressive looking, support is softer(?) looking and mixed is somewhere in between.

This was a much needed "Adjustment", Wyverns were KOable by ga III magic, and ja. In one single go. This was a flaw implemented by the original dev team, that has been corrected by this new dev team. Thankfully.

This is something that should have been implemented when PUP BST and SMN obtained their DT on pets. It's a welcomed upgrade.

The only thing DRG still lacks is ATK. Perhaps a few more nifty abilities that empower it for a duration. I liked where they were going with stances, but they're kind of moving away from that at this point.

They're talking about upgrading the Dragoon itself at this point, that'll be rather interesting in how they choose to go about it. However, I'm hopeful that their choices are solid and well thought out.

drg burns have been around for a long time 3-5 drg/rdm, or drg/blu lvl 60+ once you get af helm and some form of refresh MAY be needed. thats how I got my drg to 75 back in the day and it was 30k xp/hr+from 60-75 so yeah not much came close to that without a powerlvl. I also main healed meripos on drg back in the day but it works best with at least 2.
