Escorts broken?

Welcome to Caravan!

Caravan is broken only if you're one of those lazy asses who likes to watch everyone else do the work ^^;

I've done Caravan after this update as a WHM. On most runs I've just buffed the party (protect and stoneskin between the pops) and stopped the Chocos in the correct spots. I rarely hit the mobs (maybe Stonera / Aerora the last big wave). I've gotten the same amount of seals than everyone else.

As people have already said, it most likely just means you can't just run to the end and wait there while the others do all the work.

I'm thinking you pretty much have to do literally nothing to get the warning/reduced rewards. I did a bunch of runs the other day and a few I was really just asleep at the wheel so to speak and I didn't receive any warnings.
