Rank 10 Chocobo Barding

[Camate]

Greetings,

During the recent Letter from the Producer LIVE XV, the new chocobo raising system was touched on a bit. You’ll be happy to know that by increasing the rank cap of your companion you’ll be able to allocate more skill points, and if you boost another role to rank 10 you’ll be able to obtain the specialized barding as well.

Also, we will be implementing means to reallocate your points so you can obtain other companion role barding in this way as well; however, you’ll have to break the rank cap and be a high enough rank to do this.

Thank you Camate!

Those are facts ^^

*Still not sure if once a barding is unlocked and we reallocate our points to unlock another barding, if we can we still use the previous one?

In order to receive your first set of barding for your companion, you only need to reach rank 10. So if you have yet to receive your first set of barding, you can reallocate your points to the one you wish to obtain and then go retrieve it. However, to receive the second set of barding onward you will have to break the rank cap.

And yes, you'll be able to use all the barding you obtain.

Also, as another small tidbit, the item needed to reset your companion’s skill points can be obtained using grand company seals and through other means.

Sugoi! Once again Camate, you go the extra mile answering us.

Very much appreciated.

so my speculations were true, very happy ^^

Rank 9 now, should be ready to break the cap soon! Hehehe

Let's have fun folks!

Pardon Me, but I do not understand... What does it mean to "Break the rank cap" ?

Yes, I'm wondering as well. I "broke" the cap by using an onion and am 30k towards rank 11. I reset my choco stats after "breaking" the cap and received no 2nd barding. So does it need to be rank 11, rank 20... or what?

Is there also new skills and a new Chocobo AF2 barding set if the Chocobo reach the new max. on 1 role? ^^

there are no new skills or bardings, you'll just be able to max out all 3 trees to get all 3 bardings

Which is very nice ^^

New max perhaps later with a lvl cap raise? maybe.

Until they don't allow them to be a real companion, like a bear for a Ranger or the Egis, I don't see much of a point to just have them around even in the outfield, since when you fate party, you have to let go of them for another player, which is fine but defeats it's purpose a bit.

So for soloers it's very handy. Otherwise..

And I'm ok with the xp boost we get from the challenge log now. I'll be hitting Rank 9 tomorrow, worked less hard than others from 2.0, but I wonder if all their classes are maxed (19)

To each their own fun I guess ^^

Excited about the color change: afraid there will be lot's of black ones, but hey, need to suit my name and dark theme muhahahaha!
