Why?
Zigrah:

Currently the dragoon class is slowly fading away from the game. Are there any plans to give them a bit of an overhaul?

FFXI Team:

Of course we plan to adjust things, just like for example the beastmaster which was originally very hard to use and so we added different abilities. Like before there was no release ability, so nobody was playing Beastmaster because they would just end up losing experience so now there is the release ability and so hopefully we will keep looking at what the Dragoon needs and add them like we did spirit link which heals your wyvern when before that wasn't possible. We constantly look for new things and feedback from people for example the Dragoon needs this or is no good because of this. We do realize that the Dragoon is much more popular with American players and want to better it because we know you like it.

I bloody want my wyvern to equip cute little armor!

I like thier comment on the Treasure Hunter ability.

It's so funny to reads all the stupid ass rituals and theories about the skill...

And I quote:

"Dude, you need to face NE and have the final hit to maximize the TH ability."

or this one:

"Wtf noob, everyone knows CHR affects TH..."

Zigrah:

So what is the best way for people to send you feedback?

FFXI Team:

For example we go to websites such as yours and look at threads. That would be our first priority for feedback is honest mediums such as yours.

Straight from the horses mouth. POST YOUR IDEAS.

There's a way to suggest ideas in the PlayOnline Viewer. Click on the "Service and Support" button on the main menu. From there, click "Support" and choose "Email Support". One of the buttons at the bottom says "Comments and Suggestions". Just click that and fill out the form.

The article was a pretty good read. I'm looking forward to what might be introduced in the new expansion that they talked about.
