    [Suggestion] Make Chocobo "Summonable" exactly as a Trust

    Hello Everyone,
    Dear SE,

    So this is an idea I think about "Chocobo", currently I don't think people really use Chocobo anymore even if it could be fun and usefull...

    "Chocobo Whistle" was a cool item, but nowadays in 2016 it's really overdated I think (Limited 25 charges, take 1 room in inventory, Recast time 5 min + wait 30 sec after equip the item...)

    Then as to obtain Trusts, it could be nice to have to make a quest to unlock them
    I think it could be really usefull to "Summon" Chocobo (Or any "new" type of mount) exactly as a Trust: anywhere, instantly, with unlimited use and with a fast recast time of 240 seconds...

    Also it could be really nice to be able to pop them anywhere (exept in citys).

    What do you think about this? It could be cool don't you think?
    Thanks for your attention

    I am seriously bewildered why this is not the case.

    But why not make it infinite use and be able to summon anywhere?

    Why not have mounts in cities?

    I can't see them making it usable anywhere, or via trust magic, but I can definitely see them making the chocobo whistle infinite use and with a short recast time.

    He once sold his soul to Promathia for a rare drop. He later won it back in a drinking contest, before beating up the twilight god for good measure.
    He's won dance-off trophies from the Republic of Bastok, the Duchy of Jeuno, and the Yagudo Theomilitary.
    He's won entire arguments with a single leer.
    He is the most interesting galka in the world.

    I wish they would allow raised chocobos to get faster than standard ones. Wish they started at standard endurance and speed and could get higher than normal ones. Really hard to raise a choco that can even run as fast as rentals, especially now a days with no one selling choco food.... and no vendor to buy it from except chocobucks which is LOL if you don't have a fast choco already

    Well, I got the impression that the main advantage of a raised chocobo was chocobo digging (rentals basically have no skills for digging), chocobo racing (Daily free 90k is nice), and convenience (can summon your chocobo with a whistle when you're out in the middle of nowhere). Oh, and as far as chocobo food goes, growing it in both your mog garden (with helpers) and your mog house will get you more carrots than you can shake a stick at.

    Not to say I don't feel chocobo raising could use some benefits, just playing devil's advocate here to round out the issue.

    Yep, if you're gonna raise a chocobo for the first time, grow a few stacks of carrots beforehand, then go back and keep growing more regularly until you can realiably place 1st/2nd in most of the free runs, there is one where until you get abilities you will always finish 4th.
