Just incase anyone isn't clear about what I mean, I'm talking about the photos they showed of them in like WHM AF.

Source? i personally haven't seen anything about chocobo af, if it is a thing then most likely after you max out one of the skill trees.

Not sure how you missed this but it was posted on their site before EA.

I find it kinda unlikely that it would be after one tree is maxed, since there is one tree for each tank, DPS, and healing, but on the site they show what looks like PLD, DRG, WHM, and BLM barding. I would guess it will be related more to a class that your character has than how you level your chocobo. On, the other hand, that could make no sense if your chocobo is in black mage barding and in the tank stance the entire time...

(and this link http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/blog/000084.html has those pictures.)

No they done away with that right after beta phase 1. Those outfits had been made to determine what the choco was going to be.

They now have the new system that uses point allocation.

These will not be released.

I don't have the link to it nor am I going to hunt it down. I just know this was done away with.

This does not sound correct at all.

I don't think they're released yet; probably in a later patch.

Considering these were not even shown until around beta P4 I find that highly unlikely, and there is no BLM companion so your explanation would not make sense.

Sorry, but I'm not going to take that as fact without a source to back it up.

That's cool with me. I could not pull it if I wanted to since it was only listed on the beta forums and those are closed.

The specific reason was that they did not want people being forced into a specific look because that particular outfit had the best stats. That's why they changed it to costumes vs equipment

so you can pick your own look instead of worrying about the best stats.

Will they come out with these outfits that look like this? Maybe but, they will not have stats.

I just seen a guy with a monk helm on his chocobo so there is a way to obtain them. Im going to assume that you need to level up your chocobo to rank 10 or close to it. I asked the guy I seen where he got it and how he got it. He replied, "Go figure it out, hahahaa noob"... What a wonderful community we have become... hope this helps some..

Are you sure it was the monk helm and not Gridanian Crested Barding

Had it been anyone who played FFXI they would have told you exactly how

But this is the Gridanian Barding http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/w...1331415604.jpg is this what you saw?

That great and all, but no one was asking about stats on the gear. The TC and others (including me) want to know how to get the AF barding (yes just the costumes) that were officially shown in August (way after phase 1 beta).

I think you are confusing what was asked.

To me, those choco outfits looked dumb anyways. What I'm hoping for is some cool barding taht doesn't look ridiculous like the Magitek and Behemoth armors...

What I really want though, is an option to raise chocos of different breeds/colors. Like a Black chocobo! That would be badass, but only if it takes some work, more work than the impatient FATE grind kids would put up with ;)
