Chocobo Companion Fix

[Razail]

To start off I want to say the chocobo companion system is an amazing idea and I really enjoy having the chocobo fight with me in my travels. Unfortunately, the chocobo is extremely cumbersome. There's a few changes I wanted to suggest that currently don't make much sense in the game

1. Mounting- Let me mount my chocobo after it has been called to battle. Currently I have to summon the chocobo and have it fight then have it put away mount it run off and summon it again. Why can't I just mount it while it's already there or at least allow me to use one of my other mounts while it is summoned?

2. Duty registration - If I want to queue as a damage role the queue is quite long so I would like to queue and run around doing quests/FATES while waiting which means also using my chocobo companion. Currently I can't register for the duty finder while the cocobo is summoned. Why aren't I just forced to put it away when the duty is ready to commence? I can change class and am forced to change back once it's ready, why not the same with the chocobo? If I queue then summon the chocobo I get kicked out of queue.

3. GC leves - Currently I can't perform GC leves with my companion out because I "am in a party". So I can use my chocobo is limited from being a party member for anything like dungeons but I can't use it for activities that require me NOT to be in a party?

4. Instanced quests - The chocobo is not allowed in instanced quests such as class or some story quests. This doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. I can use it for all the non-instanced quests and isn't the point of the instance to give me a private/story experience? Then why can't I use my companion?

I really love the chocobo companion and the rank and armor system but right now the functionality seems lacking to say the least.

Can you max out all roles on chocobo, does anyone know?

[Razail]

Vesper, there's an achievement to max them all out so it must be possible!

When are you able to make your chocobo your companion? I'm at level 26 so far and was just curious when i'd be able to have one. :P

if you already got chocobo, you gotta do quest at tranquill

The healer stance for your chocobo needs to be adjusted so they are not standing right beside you taking damage , when you are fighting mobs. Like a 10 yalm rule or something.
