The Companion System Could Use Some Work

I would like to control them when they are out like a pet, but also bring them into my solo class or quest missions. I mean, why not?

You should also be able to take chocobos into undersized party dungeons and trials.

Definitely agree. We should be able to take the chocobo to all of those places and we should be able to queue for roulettes while it's out, though obviously if we queue normal roulette it shouldn't put the boco in the party, just freeze the timer and temporarily dismiss it.

You forgot one thing thats like the worst.
We can't control our chocobos.
They just attack the first thing we attack and we acn't make them change target.

Actually you can. Switch it to healer stance, so it disengages, Then back to free/DPS/tank stance and it attacks theone you are attacking after switching.

Think most would be fine if fully dismissed it.

Like, me and my two fc mates did maps. Two outside mobs decides to join the fight, so we move away from them to make them run back
Our chocobos,all 3 of them, decides that it's more important to chase mobs that's gonna run back and be at full health.

The chocobo system feels like it's still in beta and that the developers don't even know how to fix it.

Oh god yes! Its worse when you have to "pacify" a mob in some Guildleves. I don't even bother with that no more
