Chocobo Leveling

[AcaciaTyrannia]

So. We're being given the chance to purchase jump potions and potions to skip the storyline, but would it be possible for their to be a potion to skip the most TEDIOUS, unfun grind in FFXIV by far?

Everyone I know with a rank 20 chocobo cheated (Botted) for it. I've leveled almost everything except WHM to 60 (Well, bard is 57 for me now) and did fate grinding with my chocobo for all but two of the grinds, and still the bird is only at level 9. I'd be willing to pay for a means to level chocobo to 20 without having to just straight up grind monsters for hundreds of hours.

Please consider it.

I have a level 20 chocobo, and most definitely did not cheat to get it. I fed him in stables, I did challenge log with him, and before those options existed, I grinded mobs specifically for him. I won't claim it isn't a grind, but it's much more accessible than it used to be. Someone with a stable and patience is only required to kill a mob to pass a level cap.

I'm happy for you. If we're using potions to skip the 2-3 day project of leveling jobs, I think it'd be worthwhile to have one to skip the 6-12 month grind to level a chocobo.

A) Do your weekly chocobo challenge log entries (total of +15% of a level for your chocobo)
B) Stable your chocobo as often as possible and feed it Krakka root every hour. If you are part of an FC, other members can feed your chocobo every hour even when you are not logged in. If you have alts in the same FC, every single one of those alts can feed your chocobo every hour.

I have barely used my Chocobo since returning the second week of May (I have not even done the 10% challenge log a single time yet to give you an idea,)and I have already gone from level 16.5>level 18.5 on my Chocobo...and our FC only consists of myself and my GF. It is meant to take a while to level...but it does not need to be "a grind."

I got mine to 20 but it was a long grind, even with the stables and challenge log. That being said I'd have zero problem with a jump potion for chocobos. They have very little use in the game as it is anyways.

Have maxxed out chocobo here, didn't cheat. Feeding chocobo at FC stable is the easiest by far, plus they added pretty significant xp per week via the challenge log. It's really easy to level, just not FAST. Either way, they have next to zero utility since you can't take them into dungeons. Great for knocking out a solo quest here & there, but otherwise MEH

a battle job is required for endgame, chocobo is not required.
Just get a stable and kill 100 enemies weekly with the chocobo (best is with FATE grinding).
