Lore

Of all the things that are symbolic of the nation of Ishgard, few are more recognized than the dragoon. Born amidst the timeless conflict between men and dragons, these lance-wielding knights have developed an aerial style of combat, that they might better pierce the scaled hides of their mortal foes.

Taking to the firmament as though it were an extension of the land, they descend upon the enemy with every onze of their bodies behind the blow. It is this penetrative power that characterizes the dragoon.

Combat Role

If Lancers are at their best when on the attack, then Dragoons were born to do nothing but. In addition to enhanced attack power, dragoons are also able to take to the skies for short periods of time and rain down attacks on their enemies from above.

Requirements:
Level 30 Lancer and level 15 Pugilist.
As a lancer, talk to Haurtefert of the Wailing Barracks (Lancers’ Guild), located in Gridania (8,2). Complete the job quest “Eye of the Dragon,” and receive the Soul of the Dragoon.
