Chocobo breeding 101:

[Lissandra]

I have a question. Say if I buy a pedigree 2 covering and then am about to commence breeding and seeing the crappy stats of one of the parents (ex: covering bird is male, and his father has crappy stats), can I cancel the breeding, toss the covering, buy another and see another set of randomized star ratings from the father's side?

I can't test this myself yet since my bird is not rank 40.

Yes I belive you can, if you have the MGP to spare to keep rebuying.

Parents:



Child:



You can check the child, it has 2 star in mother all stats because theirs grand parents have 2 stars (first chocobo).

The father has 4 - 3 - 3 - 4 -2 because theirs grandparents have 4 -3 - 3(4)* - 4 - 2(3)*

Into brackets are maxed stats I could get.

Will check "Max Speed" stat:

we have Father(4 - 4) - Mother (2 - 2): It's a 50% to get 4 or 2 stars. I got 2

"Stamina" stat: Father(4 - 4) - Mother (2 - 2): same percent and i got 4 star.

Now, whe will think into next breeding.
My new chocobo's parents have 2(4) - 2(3) - 2(3) - 2(4) - 2. 2 stars are inherit for my first chocobo.
I'll use my first covering for the example
Covering: 4 -3 - 3(4)* - 4 - 2(3)*
Actual Parents: 2(4) - 2(3) - 2(3) - 2(4) - 2

Max Speed: 75% to get 4 stars and 25% to get only 2
Acceleration: 75% to get 3 stars and 25% to get 2 stars.
Endurance: 50% to get 3 stars, and 25% to get 2 or 4 stars.
Stamina: 75% to get 4 stars and 25% to get 2 stars
Cunning: 75% to get 2 stars and 25% to get 3 stars.

In a good match i will get 4 - 3 - 3 - 4 - 2. So my next covering must cover a 4 stars on cunning because the objetive in each breeding is max all the stats.

Percents are not exactly, because you could get 3 stars where you should get 2 or 4 stars. but will guide you to try max stats.
