the real problem with chocobo racing...isnt the racing

I agree, there's probably a technical reason for it to be separate.


Also agreed, it is one monster of a grind. I don't know how a handful of people managed to get the racing mask for pedigree 9 and the First Across title for 500 wins almost instantly. Racing the same courses all day to grind it out would be very depressing.

I can confirm,i was on anti-depressants after 5 days.The ones that grinded to 9...i almost pity them,and i'm really not trying to be insulting.
Those triple triaders too...sheesh

It's a lot easier than the TT grind. Sure, you need 1800 race to get a Rank 50 Pedigree 9 chocobo and that's around 90h time (you can make around 750k MGP with this in TT - sold cards included - in ~8100 matches). But it's not that repetitive. You could also just press W and let it run, impossible when you play TT.

Still, of course it's also mind-numbing when you really do it in a single week or so...
