Chocobo suggestion

[Semirhage]

Chocobo companion content is so neglected that they still have accuracy traits. I wouldn't hold my breath.

I kinda hope beastmaster is added and with the ability to capture beast to time, giving us as companion pen or something were we can get other companions, full customized

As far as the skill tree goes, I believe the idea behind the chocobo stances is so it can fill whichever of the three primary roles in the game, so it is doubtful this would get updated to include a more supportive role. It kind of does that already by assisting with keeping you alive, regen buff, or killing the enemy. DPS bird is quite strong and can inflict a DoT, is awesome with stuns, and can actually benefit from the chocofeed bonus you give it.

It would be nice to give them an update that at least brings the birds up to date. Traits like enhanced accuracy and increased HP are redundant. Tank stance can't hold enmity with the damage output of players, and pretty useless unless you want to send your bo after a mob while you're gathering or something, but we have stealth so it's just for giggles to do that. Healer stance bird loves to soak damage with you, which isn't too bad until an enemy uses a nasty status effect like Paralyze.

A lot of players would love updates to the companion system, and there really is a lot they can do with it if they chose to allocate the time and resources to do so. I think a lot of the playerbase would not oppose it, and be happy it went into that instead of something viewed as less popular, or not even asked for, which the devs will do from time to time. I guess they don't see it the same way though.

Companions need a lot of work, and it saddens me that I know they won't do anything about it. I've been stuck at lvl 20 since Heavensward and I want more companion content already.

-Yes, there definitely needs to be more skill trees added. Definitely a Mage tree.
-I would like to companions have greater access to content, such as dungeons.
-We should be able to customize skill trees more, whether that comes in the form of adding individual skills to a custom tree or allowing us to make a custom "free stance" where we can pick which trees we want included.
-There needs to be chocobo-exclusive content, kind of like airships and submarines.. and some of this content should be locked behind chocobo level or something, so that there is an actual need to work on your companion.
