Make our Lvl 11+ Chocobos Stronger!

i would appreciate it to increase the ability of the chocobo to build up hatred. even when i'm using quelling strikes, my precious edgar cant tank the enemy for fuckin 3 seconds after QS worn off (tank tree completed). i mean... why is there the Tanktree? why?

Use the right food out in the field. You know you are supposed to use it out when fighting and not just in the stable to give it a favorite food, right? You actually have to use it after summoning your choco. There is a nice little emnity food as well. I wonder what it does?

There's nothing like complaining about a feature that's already in the game when all you need to do is read descriptions.

I suggest going to the nearest market board and hitting misc then changing to page 2 then scrolling down to find them.

Okay ... the chocobo is completely useless as a tank when his favorite food isn't pahsana fruit + feeding him with that on the field? noticed. the healer tree does his job even withouth special food. not so fine like a real heal, but it makes a difference.

My choco is good enough to heal (at rank 8) small groups including being solo healer for pieste maps and fight and tank decently enough. Even without food, my archer (level 35) has a hard time taking hate after my choco gets it. My choco also never lost hate when I leveled my arcanist to 50 as well.

I suppose its a matter of playstyle combined with not focusing on a single tree. (yeah that doesn't get me barding any faster but my choco is definitely more useful)

Right now I think its 4 (or 5) tank 4 (or 5) healer (just enough for choco cure) and 6 attacker.

That sounds cool, but is the meaning of Chocobos not somehow missed when it is useful only during the Level Progress (the Tankspec)? After all, it takes a really LONG time level up him. I had actually hoped that the Chocobo is fairly valuable in the alexandrite-treasure hunt (I'm collecting stuff for my ninja-relic). but... no. i get the hatred back with the first fire 1 after quelling strikes worn off. and with 2 or 3 fire3-proccs or a good critical hit, i get hatred until quelling strikes. meh.

my 50 blm can take most enenmies out in the field down in 3 shots and solo B hunts without the chocobo anyways. I so solo maps just as easy as landscape mobs without a chocobo at all. Only done Alex maps with a friend once because I went the unidentified allagan route for my weapon. I haven't even finished atma collecting yet lol

Don't have much real experience but we duo'd his alex maps just fine (with 2 choco).

This. My choco is lvl 10 now but I don't really plan to buy onions for crazy gil because I have set him up with skills from tank, dps and heal trees so that he actually does damage, heal us both and generate enmity when I want him to.
About OP complaint that chocobo doesn't do more damage at lvl 10+, it is obvious that chocobo base stats only change when you unlock another + ___% stat from it's skill tree. So if you have already unlocked all + str, +crit and so on then don't expect your bird to get stronger after unlocking new heal ability.
