Chocobo Build for leveling

[SuperMiguel]

So i have a lvl 50 black mage, and wanted to level other classes, the fact that im now able to use my chocobo to fight even at lvl 1, im wondering what would the best build to optimize my leveling, im sure it would be a combination of healing+damage

I would recommend a heali-bo first. The dmg is not too surprisingly awesome for a dps-bo, I have a rank 10 one atm, hes good but not crazy good. I find that if I'm mobbing and sorts, a healie-bo is much much better and since your a BLM, you can already put out a good amount of dmg so having a heali-bo to keep you alive while SB'ing and etc would be much better.

However this is a recommendation based off my own use of the chocobo. Others may have a different input.

There was an old forum post with what seemed like good recommendations. I can't find it right now but this one also seems pretty good - http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ild-philosophy.

Generally you want a hybrid to give the most overall coverage. If you are only planning on leveling one role at a time though I suppose you could shell out for the Reagan Pepper from your grand company whenever you change roles and respec your chocobo.

I'd say focus on healing first, then branch out after. The difference between some healing and no healing is phenomenal.

Healing to 4 gets choco cure, that's a game changer.

I did basically 1 of each ( so ur choco can attack/tank at all) and focused on healing choco regen/cure are really worth it even lvl 50ish (Try to beat Chimmi from Peistemap 2 man + chocos its great fun ^^)
