We are asking adventurers across Vana'diel to tell us what job, gear, and combat behaviors your ideal adventuring companion would have. After preliminary judging by the FINAL FANTASY XI development and operations teams, players will be able to cast their votes to determine the winning entry!

The entry with the most votes will be implemented in-game for a limited time!
