Still patiently waiting for the Chocobo reset

[mouseno4]

I dont understand how it could be so incredibly hard to code - reset the skills and grant that same amount of points to the player so that they can be spent again. No other parts of the Chocobo need be altered.

If you have spent 5 points and have gained 2 tank, 1 damage and 2 healer skills, applying the ''reset'' would simply remove those 5 abilities/bonuses and grant that many as available to be spent.

Why is it that hard to implement that they need to take 6 months (so far) to add and yet we STILL have yet to even be given a date even in the remote distant future???

Last I heard (which was admittedly a while ago), they were still debating on an actual reset or if chocobo breeding would be the workaround.

I could name a dozen people off the top of my head who are eagerly awaiting a simple reset because they made a mistake between the time they began (and didnt know any better) and the FOTM knee jerk reactions months later.

And i dont know all that many people in this game.

If their plan is to fully implement the reset feature as part of the breeding program, then in the meantime they will piss off a great number of people demanding such a simple fix. We have ZERO indication when Chocobo breeding will arrive and therefore the Chocobo skill reset feature.

In all fairness to SE, the little help window that popped up when you first got your companion EXPLAINED that you would only receive the barding if you spent all points in a single class. YOU WERE WARNED. So many people wouldn't have this problem if they just READ THE HELP WINDOWS.

No it didn't.

I am pretty sure it didn't - at least not when I got my chocobo back in August. That little help window was probably added in one of the subsequent patches. I read all of the help windows and I had no idea there was chocobo job barding until I saw a screenshot on the forums a few months later - where people asked if it would be in the game.

THe chocobo reset feature was never confirmed. Although there is significant possibility they will go ahead with it, it's premature to get your hopes up that it definitely will happen

I am afraid it is exactly what it should say.

I think more of the issue is to do with the barding you get for putting all your SP into one role - because SE never actually stated that was the way to get the Job barding, and the fact many players (like me) instead min-maxed their chocobos to have all roles while excelling in none, it effectively prevented us from ever getting that barding. The point is if players had known in the first place we would never have min-maxed them and chosen a role accordingly. So asking to have our chocobos reset is kind of a way of compensating for this shortfall. If my post has come across as bitter, I'm really sorry, as I'm not angry with SE, as it was just an oversight on their part. But sadly, it's left a lot of players stuck.
