Unaffiliated Chocobo owners option

[Wulfyn]

Since there are players who don't want to be part of an FC or maybe even buy personal housing, they need an option to train etc their chocobos.

Why not actually make the chocobo stables that are around Eorzea actually functional?
Unaffiliated players could stable their chocobos at these stables and get to enjoy the content they otherwise can't participate in?

For a stabling fee they can train and feed their chocobos. Fee waived of course if they agree to shovel out the stables everyday.

Even though am part of a FC I love this idea and have suggested something similar in the past(infact was kinda hoping this is how it would start - and the FCs would only get the facilities later on).

[Shneibel]

is the idea come from here because you dont want to pay for that 20k and now take the none FC player as sheidl for your idea or because you really care about them ? After read that thread and now this, it make me wonder about your motive for make those suggest idea. Not say I am against this idea

The devs have already made it clear that they plan to implement stable features via chocobo porters in an upcoming patch. So there's that.

[Wulfyn]

No the idea came when I was thinking of how non large FC's are restricted and seeing how actual solo players are worse off. Not everyone wants to be in a FC or wants a personal house.

Smaller FC houses need to be able to be self sufficient and solo players need to be able to interact with their chocobos fully. FC stables are tied into gardening as is some crafting. Solo players are the worse one's off. Who really wants to pay 20k for a single item that is one use? Not us.

We have a yard that is more than big enough for 3 deluxe garden plots. We could be more self sufficient if we weren't restricted. For the time being we got rid of one npc to place a Junkmonger. Heck sell garden plot expansion permits. Garden crossbreeding from the ground up is time consuming especially with just one plot. Like I said there are Junkmonger npc's in the housing area that sell nothing, so why are they even there?

Are we getting frustrated with SE? Yes we are.

Thats good to know that solo's will be able to do stuff via porters.

We definitely need public paddocks.

For small FCs, I think they fixed this pretty well, the price increase of broombush is just a side effect of it being still 24h after the update, give it a few more days and the price will drop a lot, 30 stable brooms can last any FC like two months, it's a matter of time before they become pretty much worthless.

For solo players, they already said they had plans on implement this system on chocobo porters. but I'd expect either a big gil sink or limited features.

I wouldn't mind this idea. I'm in a FC but we're pretty small and even if we had enough to get a housing plot there's none left anyway. xP A few of us were debating among the officers if we wanted to give in and just seek out a FC with housing or that was closer to housing and had more active members then the 4 or 5 we have just so we could even get to see half of the updates that had come out over the last few patches. xP

[Wulfyn]

Thats one thing that makes us want to grow our own, not knowing how the brooms work exactly. So we're balking @ 20k a piece for one time use item not knowing how it works. If only my retainers would bring a seed back sometime. Working on getting crafters and gatherers up to snuff has been eating our gil up lately, plus yea being casual player's there are alot of other things we try to get done when we are online.

SE will make it accessible for players w/o stables, they already confirmed it, but for now only those with a house will have access to it.

Don't wanna be rude, but you have to accept that you'll be missing content w/o a FC house, the next one is FC airships.

Oh and i like your idea.
