Please let us mount other mounts while our chocobo is summoned

As the title states, it'd be nice to be able to use whatever mount we wish, even with our chocobo summoned.

It's particularly annoying when paired with the Draught chocobo...

They should do this and make it so we can queue while having our companion out. If I can queue with my Ifrit-Egi or Eos, why cant I do it with my chocobo?

Minor workaround

/micon "Unicorn" mount
/mount "Unicorn"
/mount "Company Chocobo"

Because Ifrit-Egi is a pet and not a companion party member who don't have unlocked the dungeon ^^


I wish we could buff our companions with Protect.

Since we have so many mounts to choose from and only the company chocobo can be leveled, I propose a glamour option for the company chocobo. We can ride our favorite mount and level up/fight with it at our side.

I love this suggestion. It would be even cooler if it was more than glamour and each mount had a unique set of abilities. I realize this is way too much to ask SE... :(
(They could start with 1 or 2 though and add more)

You are advocating that SE implement a glamour for our companion chocobo that effectively changes its appearance to other non-chocobo mounts? o.O That just sounds silly honestly, much more reasonable to ask that the other mounts be made into companions as well, though even that takes away from the cool vibe of having a companion chocobo imo.

You can use this:

/macroicon "Mount Roulette"
/ac "Mount Roulette"
/mount "Company Chocobo"

Nah, no more sillier than the current gear glamour system at hand: snowman headed tanks in nightgowns, bikini clad mages, Santa Claus and reindeer headed dps...in the dungeons or fighting in the opening world...the list goes on.

Everything is silly in the appropriate philosophical light.

I would feel very uneasy if Chocobos could just change to a whole different species at whim C_C Inanimate objects is one thing, but Fantasiaing our Chocobos.... and it's got nothing to do whether something looks silly or not o_o;;; *shudders*
