New details on Caravan Security!

Looks awesome and well developed in the tactic's and difficulty it seem's to give us. We will see though if it will actually be tough enough to at least cause 1-2 chocobo's to flee in some instances (not all the time, just enough make it challenging and different each time) I really want to do this. Also first repeatable quest! *cheers!*

[Tremain]

I wonder how often we can repeat the quests.

[Xmbei]

I would hope to guess 1 every hour or 4 hours. Or else 1 a day... but that wouldn't make it pleasing to most... and if it was 1 every hour it would make since in an Eorzean world feel since 1 hour=1 day in game usually escort's like this happen not 5/a day or so lol.

I was excited then I remembered these are for level 20.
The higher level ones are coming 1.20.

1 an hour would be great, as long as they don't have a participation limit like behest. With the implementation of open claim system there is no reason why that can't make it open. and just give players a cumulative reward at the end.

I think it would be even better if they can have multiple escort's going on at once in an area it would definately liven up the road's and give life to the world because there is multiple business's with multiple caravan's! but sadly we have to speculate that but multiple at once would really liven up the roads... and they really need that!

I hope its not limited like behest, but this makes me think there is some sign up time...

* Only participating players can attack duty-specific enemies.

Only those who have pledged their full allegiance to a Grand Company can undertake caravan security. To do so, simply speak to the NPC representing your organization stationed at the following aetheryte camps:

MY biggest concern is will it be doable with players from other companies. Finding people to do the escort with that have sworn allegiance with the same company as you would be annoying. Especially since it doesn't look soloable.

You can help people that have other allegiance (stated somewhere), companies doesnt fight against each other, they fight with each other, and it will work the same just as current guildleves. People have been spreading out among all other cities for leves and so far there is no issue in getting people to do leves with me in all cities because party rank range doesn't really matter that much anymore.
