Current chocobos and raising

[Ruisu]

Hopefully they add a mounting animation too.

What reason is there for this aside from graphics?

A curious thing to note is that I've observed - and this is simply an observation - that my friend's chocobo typically gets lamed on the first hit from even relatively low-level monsters (r46 when she's 50, for example) whereas my husband's chocobo, Ponce, gets lamed about 50% of the time. Mine, on the other hand, very rarely gets lamed. I think it's happened a total of 10 times, and this includes a few parties where I was the puller in Natalan.

I'm not saying that there's some underlying chocobo class already in effect now, but it really is curious to me that there's such a vast difference between our three chocobos.

I have noticed something very similar. When I have my monk job equiped, I very rarely have my chocobo lamed. However, when I have my black mage job equiped it seems to happen a little more frequently. {hmmmm}

I'm thinking maybe our current choco will purely be a mount. I wouldn't mind that too much though. I'd like a whole flock of chocobo!

Imagine it will be similiar to choco raising in XI, but what you do and how you train will effect its abilities. IT will be a seperate choco fro mthe rgular you get and currently have.

Chocobos are meant to be npcs to help you fill party spots and help you while soloing, so they will be available to everyone.

I hope, if the chocobo job type is based on breeding, that we get some kind of way to pick which one we want for the one we've been using until now.

I thought Yoshi-P had mentioned switching your Chocobo's job/class. Can't find the comment though. I actually kinda hope they let you use the current Chocobo for both. He had mentioned in the same article that you would ride the chocobo, and when dismounting it would stick around.

Besides i would rather not totally relegate my good and loyal Ico to the Feather heap. Hes a good Bo and i'd like him to be able to keep on Choco'in.

One thing I love about what Yoshi mentioned was that there would be armor you can equip to your Chocobo. This gets me thinking about chocobo tales x3

I don't think you can change your chocobo's role, it said in one of the translations that while raising you chocobo you have to think carefully before you decide which role you want your chocobo to perform.

I read that in a recent interview. Pick the class once and it stays that way. In that case, mine will be a healer.

I was thinking since I'll be mostly a White Mage and a Summoner in some cases I was thinking either the caster or the tank chocobo.
