Also, in the CG video AND the game, the dragonkillers come with chain tethers and apparently an automated winch (as evidenced by bismarck fight).
They aren't "meant" to kill in so much that if it does kill, yay, but its primary function is to lodge into dragons and bring them down to the ground to have the finishing blow by foot soldiers, cannons, archers, what have you.
Also, while this is a bit of my headcanon coming into play, the CG shows Dragoons riding down dragons to the floor when they land a dragon as opposed to just leaping off, even dog piling onto the same one. So I like to think that once again, if they kill, they kill, but dragoons are like human dragonkillers (that sounds so "duh" when put like that). They leap on them, grounding them, and the troops can clean up, they leap again to ground more.
