The personal chocobos are currently planned for release for purchase at the price of 3000 company seals, the problem with this however is that you can only ever obtain 6750 seals overall with no methods currently to obtain new seals.
A breakdown of company seals obtainable as quoted from Khornette on Zam:
"Currently you can get total 6,750 Seals:
250 from R22 Induction quest
500 from R22 Non-Combat quest
1000 from R25 Imperial Device
4000 from R45 Into the Dark
1000 from the event"
Which leads to two problems:
1) With no renewable method of obtaining seals, those who have already purchased from Grand Companies for their level 50 weapons (4k) or similar items could find purchasing their chocobos impossible.
2) Players lower than 45 will be unable to purchase permanent chocobos, which may make sense as chocobos can be rented regardless though having to be almost max level for the mount seams a bit steep.
Does anyone know if we will be recieving more Grand Companies marks in the following patch opening up new oppertunities for these marks? Hopefully one which allows the marks to be farmed indefinatly but still requiring effort and time.

"Those who complete the task will earn company seals based on the amount of cargo delivered intact." Yeap, sounds like it will; thanks, didn't see that :).
Curious, how does one "pledged their full allegiance to a Grand Company"? -

There'll be daily quests at the grand company you join that will reward in company seals to buy things from the GC shop, so choose your Grand Company wisely or you could find yourself unable to get hold of the gear you want for the class you play.Quote:

Somebody set us up the Chocobo.
Greetings gentlemen. All your caravan are belong to us. -

Grand Companies will be what moves all content for FFXIV forward, besides the caravan security other stuff will be added. I understand your concern, but if SE developers were this shortsighted, the company would not be where it is now. (Please don't come up with the "hah! look at XIV!" comment, everyone makes mistakes, even the mighty Hiromichi Tanaka)

Once you have decided what Grand Company to join, you will be given more quests which entail more Seals. It was mentioned in the last post about Grand Companies and has been discussed on the forums a bit. So no worries.
