Final Fantasy XI: Dragoon Guide
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 кві 2018
- It's been a very long time since my last job guide, since I've had a really busy time in RL, and I couldn't think of a better job to feature as a homecoming guide (of sorts) than the first job I ever got to level cap back in the day.
Some of my earliest and fondest memories of Final Fantasy XI stem from taking Dragoon from Level 60 to Level 75 solo, so the job's always held a soft spot with me. Today the Dragoon stands as a solid DPS job that isn't really understood by the majority of the player base. The job really does have a lot to offer to a guide is all the more pertinent.

Audio levels should be stable, but if they're off kilter I can adjust them.

Spicyryan of the Asura server has a good written guide up on the BG Wiki, he also lists some good pointers for equipment selection. www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Here_Be_DRGs
The FFXIAH community also has a thread on the Dragoon job. The posters there are open to questions from new players.

As some have pointed out, here and in-game, I neglected to put in my TP and WS sets in this guide like I did for my Dark Knight guide. This wasn't intentional and is something that honestly skipped my mind, chalk it up to a lack of recent practice perhaps.
I've linked Spicyryan's written guide on the BG Wiki which has some solid ideas for gear sets. I have also provided links to my sets below via FFXIAH.
TP: www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/344903
DT: www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/358364
Jump: Same as TP. Relic Legs +1 for High Jump.
Stardiver: www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/344904
Camlann: www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/358362
Sonic Thrust: Same as Camlann.

Kick ass dude! Glad to see ya posting it all is very well put together hopefully this guide brings more to the goon side!
Love these. Your GEO and RUN guides were awesome! They have helped so much since I returned last May (gone since 2012). I’d love to see SMN/BLU/COR guides if those are jobs you play. 🤙
Your guides are amazing, thanks man!
Dude love the guides. You're rune fencer guide is partially why I picked up the job. Keep up the good work.
I wanted to watch something during the quest to unlocking Dragoon. Clicked subscriptions and I see this video. It's the fate!
Hey, I really appreciate you making this video. I just lvld DRG to 99 and I'm still new so I can't wait to build the sets and get him up to speed. Had no idea about the Wyvern's ability to level up and gain abilities... much appreciated.
I don't play this game nor have I ever but these videos are still really interesting for me
Another incredible guide!!
All your videos are geat however most need updates. 2022 is here 🙌
Great guide! Very informative.
Ah... My favorite job. DRG job fantasy was always top for me. In the old days, especially after ToAU, it felt like you were raising the wyvern. The only weakness to the job, as intended with the job fantasy, is the SPs. My take on what they should be:
(SP1)Spirit Surge: Adds the power of your wyvern. Duration: 30 sec
Effects:
Increases Crit Rate by 10%.
Resets all Jump timers and reduce their cooldown time to 10sec.
Increases CURRENT Parameter Boosts from Wyvern x1.5. No longer sends Wyvern away.
Jump still reduces defense. High Jump still reduces TP.
(SP2)Holy Crest: Draw out the potential of your Wyvern. Duration: 30sec
Effect:
Copies ALL beneficial effects from the dragoon to the Wyvern.
All Wyvern Breaths receive effect of Deep Breathing.
Spirit Link, Steady Wing, Spirit Bond, Restoring Breath and Smiting Breath timers reset and cooldown reduced to 10sec.
_________
The way it would play out is Spirit Surge is the wyvern fully supporting the Dragoon and DRG goes ham. Dragoon returns the favor for Holy Crest. Spirit Surge plays the same. For Holy Crest, can easily keep bursting SCs with enhanced breaths, both from the DRG still dropping WS and SCs, to popping Smiting. Can also help get a group back up real quick. With all the buffs of the DRG on the wyvern, like haste, multihit, etc, even if it gets hate, or just eating a lot of AoE, would have to break through Steady Wing. If they did, you have Spirit Links to keep throwing before the Regen wears off the prior one, and Spirit Bond with Restoring would have Wyvern healing itself as well.
Both SPs could generate massive hate for the DRG (Surge) or wyvern(Crest). Surge is easy. You'll have Super Jump. Crest you'd have to hold then use after. First SP enhances the DD/DPS aspect of DRG. The second enhances the support aspect, while also providing some decent, but not too out there. Thoughts?
Armor looks CLEAN my dude
This man is just vaatividyas alt YT acct. Who knew he loved ffxi
Only wish I have is that DRG's wyvern physically grew as you leveled
loldrg, makes me happy to see this vid having 0 dislikes. Keep em coming.
Jinxed it.
I dont care what video you release, just keep talking! that voice is divine.
what is the best out the 3 dragoon head pieces af ralic or emp?
I’m having major accuracy issues with impulse drive on DRG
using shining one !!! Any advice ?
I am not as strong as most but my DRG is so fun.. I was able to solo a wildskeeper reive and coca...
SAM or DNC work well for me, BLU is alright as well. Warrior is something I rarely if ever use, would you recommend anything else?
Looking at gear setup for Drg, does Vishap head ever come into play anymore? That was such staple part of my old drg soloing for initiating healing breath. It be shame if they made it worthless.
what do you use for legs ? armor piece ?
is it possible
I request a pld guide. I didn't see one
Wow 2 years already
Well done... But I was hoping you would put your WS sets up like you did with your DRK guide... Still a good guide though...
I did consider putting something like that in but I'll update my AH profile sets and link them in the description.
Guides are great but the audio is so hard to hear
i hope this doesn't drag me back in ffxi again gdi, i quit for 3 months so far
I was gone for eight months, but the people always bring me back.
It's not worth the thousands of hours this game takes away from your life. Don't do it!
Come to Nasomi!
Abdiah Rosser Home of the moving worms !
Could you elaborate on that?
How often do trusts interfere with your skillchains? Great Channel btw subbed!
Chris Robbins more often than I would like. Stuff like Neak it never happens due to the acc difference.
This guild might need to be revised now that all jumps are on their own timer. Drg probably more fun now cause of it
Mervin Kimball jr did my best to address it in the version update editorial, could come back to this though.
Can you do a rdm guide? Would really help
It's one I'm considering for sure.
Was going to ask the same thing. Lol
I think your aspect ratio in-game is off
Does anyone know the name of the legs on this lock style?
Hattori Hakama or Iga Hakama
Thanks man!! Completely forgot you can lock JSE..
Cool beans
please dont make me play it again T.T my family will miss me if i do lol
Awesome and comprehensive vid, but by Altana, please fix your aspect ratio.
Jacob Victoria I was thinking the same thing. How can anyone play with those settings. No wonder Galka are considered very fat by some people when you have an aspect ratio making everyone 2 times wider ^_^;
Do you mean compress my ratio?
I understand if the video is hard to see unless you go full screen but since the screen I have is 1960 x 1080 I generally have it set to a ratio which works with it. I'll see what I can do.
SplitFinn your screen is stretched, which is why your character model looks wider than normal. You can really see it if you look at a circle in-game (shell animation, dragon circle, or even the moon)
I am jealous you have Cornelia.
Very nice guide but hard to hear
after getting banned with 1400 days playtime 2 years ago i decided to play again.
I want that weapon :_:
Dragoon is dead there is only 3 drgs in all server server
Lol people still play retail? I thought we all played on Nasomi these days.
so basically its an LOLDRG cause what this dood is saying is it just doesn't compete with damage dealers and falls behind others yea.... no thanks using this piece of shit job then its shite no wonder it gets hate it does suck loldrg
