Chocobo Companions and You: A Guide

[ServerCollaps]

Each training was 0.9% at lv10-11, and 0.85% from 11-12. According to ServerCollaps, each training at 12-13 is 7.85%. It's definately on a downward path, but not at a linear rate.

ya, thats right

I'm half way to 13, in some days I can say whats required for 14 x)

friend of mine has a rank 12 chocobo, says that you only get 10 SP for the first 2 levels...this might be bad

[ColdestHeaven]

Let's say I currently have a Chocobo with all the skills available (not rank 10, so not all of them) set on Healer. If I were to use the Pepper to set them to DPS before getting any Healer barding, or any barding at all, would that allow me to actually get the DPS barding?

[Amnesia]

The only logical thing is that it gives you the barding of the first tree in which you get the level 10 skill.

Perfect, thank you!

[Amnesia]

I can confirm that the barding is given to you based on which level 10 skill you choose first.

I had a level 10 bird with all tank skills chosen up to rank 9. Instead of picking the rank 10 tank skill, I reset all my bird's SP using a pepper. I then chose all the attacker skills, including the level 10 one....and I was given a set of dragoon barding...

RE: Favorite Foods

A warning - if your chocobo has a favorite food already (e.g. Curiel) do NOT try to "cheap out" on training food by using another food mixed with krakka. Or use a wider assortment to cancel the chain out.
I had an excess of Sylkis buds so I tried mixing in with krakka every once in awhile for training ... my chocobo switched from loving Curiel Root to loving Sylkis Oh well, I guess he'll gain like 1 more dps right?

I know this is many years after the fact but this is pretty much the only resource I've been able to find on Chocobo Companion raising. What would be the best order to unlock things up to rank 20 now? Basically could we get an updated version of the guide?

I would go for: 1st skill of every tree, then All of the healer ones, then It does not matter.

The 1st of every kit let you unlock the "stances" of the chocobo, so lets Say you are a healer and tired of the chocobo that does nothing except casting regens.. you give him attacker stance and finally It attacker.
Tank stance Is useful only at very low levels, healer stance Is bread and butter when you Need someone healing you in the wild
