Chocobos need boosting when players buy level boosts

[Sean-bandia]

I have purchased level and job boosts from the Mog Station on several occasions. These are wonderful when creating an alt for RP or on a different data centre (thank you in advance for the future visiting systems). All has gone wonderfully except for one thing: your companion is only level one when you are doing level 70+ content at which it would usually be at least level 10! Doing MSQ means travelling among enemies that you cannot defeat without either a higher level companion or a *lot* of luck. Fates are impossible.

Would it be possible to include a companion skill boost along with the level or job boost? Pretty please?

SE isn't going to also boost optional side content as part of your character boost.

Your chocobo is always the same level as your currently active job. You're not talking about its level. You're talking about its rank.

If you're already into level 70+ content, it should be ranking up very fast as long as you're killing things. The amount of chocobo XP from that content is considerable compared to what's needed for the lower ranks. Take an hour or so to do the multi-creature FATEs in Lakeland (don't bother with NM FATEs as your chocobo would only be getting XP from one kill).

There's nothing you need to do for MSQ that requires a chocobo companion. It's all designed to be solo outside of dungeons/trials. If you're having problems killing things, learn your job and make sure your gear is up to date.

The potato says it all.

I did all of MSQ on my main and completely forgot about my chocobo companion.

And my main's a Black Mage.

Yeah, i was at the cap before i went back and started actually working on my birds level. I would forget to summon it when i could use it, and the rest of the time you're in instances where it isnt allowed.

Chocobo is required for nothing. Just raise it up quick like suggested.

I didn't use mine for years, even on DPS, because you used to not be able to queue with your bird out. If I didn't need one for fates in 2015 then you don't need one for fates in 2021.
