Job Overview Dragoons are one of the many melee damage dealers in the game. The attraction of being a Dragoon is no doubt having a Wyvern as your partner. This sort of makes a Dragoon a player and a half player when it comes out to totally the overall output damage that a Dragoon does. If you were to rate a Dragoon in terms of overall damage when compare to the other damage dealers, they are on par with most of them. However there is a misconception by most uninformed players that think Dragoons are weak damage dealers. This is due to the fact that when damage dealers compare the damage done by each jobs, they only compare the damage done from the player to player in itself. If you do that comparison then in most cases the damage from a Dragoon might be weaker than the other jobs. But the truth is that people tend to forget the damage done by the Dragoon partner, the Wyvern. If you add the damage done by the Dragoon and the Wyvern, you'll notice that the total damage is on par or even greater than some of the damage done by the other jobs. People should stop looking at Dragoon as only the Dragoon and look at Dragoon as the Dragoon and their Wyvern. One of the attraction of having a Wyvern as a partner is that the Wyvern itself can help magic burst on Skill Chains or deliver its own special breath attack on Skill Chains. Thus giving more damage overall for a Dragoon. The Wyvern is also flexible in its task base on the sub job that the Dragoon is using. A Wyvern can be in an offensive form to help deliver more damage, or it can be in a defensive form to help heal and cure status ailments, and even be a balance of both forms. If you love the idea of having a pet partner around then being a Dragoon should please you. From an invite stand point, your wait time for getting an invite to a party varies. You might be quick invites on some days or you might not get any invites on some day. This is due to the fact that there are so many other damage dealers around and that a Dragoon is a damage dealer that doesn't stand out amongst the many damage dealers out there. Wyvern Forms Offensive Balance Defensive Warrior Paladin Black Mage Monk Ninja Red Mage Thief Dark Knight White Mage Beastmaster Bard Summoner Ranger     Samurai     Polearm will be your only choice as main offensive weapon. Don't bother with any other type of weapons. Sub Job Combos Drg/War: Subbing a warrior gives Dragoon a more balance role between attack and defense. You'll get an offensive boost in stats and the Double Attack trait and the ability to boost your attack power with Berserk all from a Warrior. You can also act as a back up provoker and even tank if things are bad with Provoke and Defender at your disposal. You'll be seeing many Dragoons subbing Warrior as their choice of sub job combo. Drg/Thf: This is a total damage dealer sub job combo as compare to the balance one of Drg/War. What you lose out from boost in stats when not subbing Warrior, you get back raw damage output from using Thief as a sub. Sneak Attack and Trick Attack with your Weapon Skills is the main attraction of this sub job combo that provide a very nice overall damage output. You'll have to decide when to use a Thief as a sub and when to not use it if the party you are in needs a back up provoker.
