I love the Dragoon job visually, but I'm always a tad saddened that their gimmick is barely worthwhile. The only use I found for them was in Final Fantasy 3 3D Remake (might be true for the pixel remaster as well, I don't know yet) where you can jump with 3 Dragoons to guarantee your countering Monk actually gets hit. Since Counter is strong and multiple bosses can get countered several times per turn, it's actually kind of a decent use of the job. Provided they are fast enough.

Dragoon is meant to be a tank class with a decent physical option, pair it with a more primary damage dealer like a Knight, Samurai, Berserker, hell even a Ninja and have a good method of keeping HP up and the dragoon can output serious consistant damage. This is kind of true to real life since spears are a great balance of defense and offense. Also, whoever drew Melusine and Calofisteri (and Barbariccia from FF4) was putting in a lot of detail for only using one foot to draw them.

@BacklogBuster 9 күн бұрын

All the jobs you listed absolutely trounce Dragoon in terms of damage output. Its not even close. Dragoon just doesnt do what it needs to do in these games.

@mursamunelegend 8 күн бұрын

@@BacklogBuster Oh yeah I never said it had a GOOD physical, this video actually reminded me that spears aren't as strong as I recall on the ps1 days. I just said it was decent since it's not concerned with attacks as much as it is tanking, since you're realistically not intended to set it to all four characters. I like playing around with them, in my current file with one point in strength difference Faris as a Dragoon is beating out Galuf in Samurai in terms of normal physical, and that's with a spear too.

Freya's alright. Her best niche is it's possible to get her endgame weapon near the beginning of Disc 3 and crush rest of the game with it. Also probably helps that FF9 mages have the best defense in the game so jumping doesn't really put anyone in danger.

@iantaakalla8180 10 күн бұрын

I wonder, does this mean the classes that have to equip the Bone Mail instantly mark them as bad classes since it seems most classes can finish bosses quick enough for statuses to not matter when they come up or are Neo Exdeath and you want to rush it down?

@sertiana2512 10 күн бұрын

Most likely yes. Classes like Blue Mage and Chemist have dirty tricks behind their sleeve, while Black Mage has raw power to steamroll almost anything. Even Knight is a decent class for having Two Handed and good equipment support.
