Suggestion - Disciples of the Land Barding please!

Sooo in order to obtain this barding they'll make a new item you need to gather with FSH/BOT/MIN where you need max melded gear with the latest tools along with you need to get 99 HQ of the said item. Then you need to trade those items in for a synth item and the other 2 items needed for it will be from desynthing FCoB gear. The synth will be a 5 star synth that only a small handful of people can do because it will require them to have max melds + latest tools + every FC buff + food in order to attempt it. Sounds about right when you think about it xD

I love barding and think this is an awesome idea. My chocobo loves different looks just as I do! I change barding often and the more the better! Thanks for the idea, well supported. Just hope they don't make us jump through impossible hoops for it. :cool:

As someone who has maxed out every crafter's class... I kinda want barding for all of them now. ;)

Just imagine:

- Blacksmith/armorer barding: A welding helmet and BSM apron for the body.
- Carpenter - Chocobo-tail saw, come on!
- Weaver - That hat for sure!
- Alchemist - I loved the scientist jacket before it got replaced by the artisan's apron...

Crafters can, and usual do, perform their jobs in the safety of a city, only leaving under special circumstances (to deliver a Leve, for instance, or to head to ANOTHER city to pick up goods not available or cheaper than at home).

When you look at Goldsmith, you don't say, "Yeah, this is a class whose mount is central to what they do," while you certainly might for Miner!

Far better than any of this would be to have one DoH barding and one DoL barding. That way everyone gets what they want.

If they do it right they could always do:

HQ Hard to get item XYZ Ore, ABC Log, MNO Fish used to upgrade your DoL tool
NQ Hard to get item XYZ Ore, ABC Log, MNO Fish used to obtain your DoL Barding

That way both are being used towards something, sure it will take time but it won't add a stupid amount of time sink, and it will give us something to use the NQ items we gather on.

*gulp*

The Fat Chocobo Hatchling (Heavy Hatchling)text alludes to it once its in your minion log.

It would be foolish to believe that a chocobo could achieve this size dining on greens alone, regardless of how many hundreds of bushels were devoured...in a single sitting. Chicken bones found beneath the chick's bedding suggest he may have a taste for his succulent cousins.
