Not to the level of the dragoon job. The game does a poor job translating the story line into multiplayer interaction. The only way to do all of the crazy awesome dragoon skills is to be chosen by the Eye. According to the main dragoon story line, you're the only outsider chosen by the Eye since ever. So unless you're born in Ishgard it's going to be hard to convince me IC that you are what you say you are. Want to be really good at using a lance and just play the dragoon class because it's the natural progression from lancer? Fine by me. Want to tell me you're an actual dragoon but you're not from Ishgard? That's going to quirk some eyebrows. Especially since OOC I'm completely obsessed with Ishgard lore, and IC I RP a born-and-bred knight of noble blood from one of the four High Houses of the city-state.
Just a fair warning. Play what you want, but be able to back it up for when the Lore Police show up.
