Well, you guys can do what you want, but my bottom line is as follows:
Anyone who dismisses a Dragoon for, you know, being a Dragoon, is being a jerk.
Anyone who claims that a Dragoon cannot effectively utilize a jumping manuever in combat, is being a jerk.
That's not to claim that anyone and everyone playing a Dragoon will be interesting, or fun; there may even be more rather than fewer "poor RPers" playing Dragoons (since I never see any, and I avoid combat RP, I really don't know!)
But Dragoons are part of FFXIV lore. Â They are part of FF lore in general. Â They've been with the game for ages, and they're known for their ability to jump and then land on their targets with lances. Â Not liking that is about on par with not liking Chocobos, you can grumble about them, but they exist, and you really ought to accept that ICly, even if they really don't make much sense.
