Pretty much the title of the thread.
As it stands, regular leves allow parties. GC Leves do not. This makes GC Leves insufferable to grind (which I continue to do so for the GC-themed bracelet). So... yeah.
Also, I said "Companions" and not "Chocobos" because Magitek Armor companions are pretty much confirmed and no one seems to care.

They are solo leves by design

Agreed. I'd also like to be able to link them. Not sure how anyone else feels about that.

GC leves are something I don't do. If they'd allow companions I would them.

Always found it weird that we couldn't bring our companions, that were given to us by our Grand Company, with us to do leves, for our Grand Company...

To me, a party is when you have other players in it; not when you have an AI controlled unit when you solo. So please SE; re-work it to where this is what Companions are; support units, not an extension of the party. -
