[AxisNS87]

hey everyone, i've been looking into FFXI for a while, and im still not sure of what i want :sweat: dragoons with pinta sounds rather interesting, would a subclass that has a higher skill in spear/polearm or whatever, give more damage?? what kind of a sub would i be looking for for a dragoon??:confused:

well thanx for any help on the matter, and hopefully this will help more than just myself :thumbsup:

Don't get too down on yourself. We all make mistakes :)

Anyways, the sub job question is a tough one. The sub jobs proficiency with spear doesn't matter at all. The three real choices you have for a dragoon sub job are Warrior, Thief, and Samurai. Samurai is really more for after level 60 though. So really you just need to pick a sub job that fits your play style. Don?ft let this turn you off on other sub jobs though. There is an excellent guide to playing Drg/Rdm which is really well done. I really like Drg/War and Drg/Sam. Drg/Thf has its place too. It?fs all up to you.

Hope this helps you out.

edit: here is the drg/rdm guide. It may not be for everyone but it's put together very well. Drg/Rdm (http://ffxi.cogn.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19618)

hey thanx bundles man, war thf or sam, seems like warrior would give most damage because of the stats?? (i dont know these things i am assuming) and the theif dish out some madd damage with the skills, and probably be a little faster?? and the samurai.. using his sick TP regen etc. to get out more pintas faster and whatnot?? :rolleyes:

well ya... as you can see i dont know too much about it yet, so any pro's con's for these things would be wonderfull :thumbsup:



PS: thinking about a samurai if this doesn't work out, is a theif a good subjob for that? or are there too many penalties? :sweat:


well thanx for any help, str and hnr
