Company Seals for your own chocobo THATS IT?!

[Xmbei]

Let's say I'm a new FFXIV player, I want my personal chocobo, what are the steps?

1. Level to 25
2. Join a Grand Company by doing a quest
3. Rise to the rank of member (that's probably going to be at least one quest as well)
4. Accumulate seals by doing a lot of Caravan escorts or by doing the rank 25 raid (that takes hours if you don't know anyone)
(5. Do a quest that's about Chocobos, we don't know anything yet and people are already calling for a riot.)
6. Buy your chocobo license

In FFXI we have:

1. Trade one item to a Chocobo every hour for 5 hours.
2. ???
3. Congrats, you can now ride Chocobos!

You can be proud of yourself, you really worked hard for that license there.

I can't believe some of the people here, OF COURSE it's going to be easy to get a Chocobo when you have multiple rank 50 classes? Did you think you'd have to save a Chocobo from a level 90 Wyrm in a full party? Jesus christ...

great post but I have one addition to add make step one of FFXI achieve level 20.

lol ya! I actually really miss that run... It was such a thrill and a fulfilling experience... some might think it wasn't but I found it fun. Would also have competitions with friends to get on their lowest job and have a race from a starting city to jueno by foot. It was so much fun!
