[dev1137] Caravan Security

[Davorok]

Maybe we have to successfully complete a Chocobo Caravan Quest in order to be able to get a Company Choco.

Where do you think they gonna get the chocos from?

[Xmbei]

I know and the carrot's and turnip foods for chocobo's... I don't know why it has to be a they hate culinarian's because chocobo's eat harvested vegetables, not your meat miqotikababs

From what I've seen, this looks like a glorified escort mission. I dunno, it could be fun. Just the idea of having to escort a chocobo doesn't seem all that great, in my opinion. I guess we gotta wait for the update.

this is just 1 diaster after another, "luck" spam join, not only do you have to spam it you have to hope your 3 other friends also spam it otherwise you have to split, then restricting who you can plwy with and what rewards you can get, people will just got for the better, or if im a mage and i think grid would benefit me but my brother is a tank and uldah benefits him then we are forced not to play together.

Bad move Se, thats put a big CON on caravan security for me.

im not to bothered about it in this case, but in future, if they keep deciding to use this approach, then its gunna just make things worse.

Meh, really not looking forward to this any more. 4 man limit = bad. Restricted to the company you join = bad. Going to suck telling my friend they're SoL because of the limit or because we're from different companies.

Sorry if I was unclear about the "function the same way as Behest" part, but yes, it is like the current Behest system where whoever speaks with the NPC first will be able to take part in the security. There won't be multiple caravans, just like there is only one Behest, but with a 15 minute wait until the next one, it won't be long before you have another chance.

I am not impressed. Not until we have an Ishgard Grand Company and associated quests.

This is the only repeatable I see so far that gives company seals. I sure hope there are other methods for obtaining them....

Also, with the distance of client to server, caravans will become a Japanese event. With behest it's the same thing, they see the behest NPC 2-3 seconds before NA do and get first dibs. This is a problem.

I think Yoship said there will be supply replenishment quests.

only if you play during JP prime time..... anyone playing in NA will not have much of an issue unless you are playing at ungodly hours and happen to be on a heavy JP server.. in which case it is still every 15 minutes so you can just wait until the next one starts. I am thinking they probably take at 10-15 minutes anyway. Just wait at the npc, those who are currently on the quest won't get back to the NPC before you.
