Has anyone been able to boost any stats on their chocos? Ive been feeding and caring for the damn thing every day, and its still poor in every catagory. I think it needs to get beat.
 
I don't think they'll be able to get better attributes till their past stage 2, just my thoughts though.
 
I'm personally curious as to how a choco is supposed to be rideable in one month. 4 days in the egg, and 14 days as a chick now. By the 1 month standard, the chick should grow into something rideable in the next 12 days. Not that i'm impatient at all, but I just can't forsee it being ready to go in 12 days. Maybe i'm just skeptical.
 
Yeah, I believe that too, you have to wait for adolescent form. I don't know anyone else who has past all poor stats.

I can't wait for it to be in its next form, been two weeks or so as a chick, and that's kind of getting boring now since you can't really do anything else with it.

Also, it'll probably be in its next form I bet by this Monday, and then 10 days or so in that form, and fully grown after the 30 days, and then ridable.
 
lol I still dont even know how to tell the damn thing a story even though i have the key item.

There are actually a number of people who've reported that one or more of their chocobo's stats have raised to "sub-standard," and even a couple that have gotten all the way to "standard." Most people are still poor in everything, though, and the ones with any stat changes at all are folks spending an arm and a leg to feed them nothing but Vomp carrots, or something else.

This, you genuinely can't do until the chocobo ages a little bit. You'll see the option in the "Care for your chocobo" menu once it's available, along with the "Take a walk" and "Watch over" options.

hmm.. ive been feeding it carrot paste as of late.. not sure if it effects stats at all; on a different note, does anyone know what the parasite worm does, and when it should be fed to the choco?
 
actually, the stamina trait on mine changed today from poor to substandard

Yea really. I THOUGHT SE menetioned 2 more intermediate stages of chocobo growth before rideability. Logic would say that those stages are roughly the same amount of time... So... IDK... My geuss is the month thing is one of those things SE says but knows that it aint happening.
 
2 more stages before Fully grown after chick?

No, no, I believe it doesn't go like that. It's more like something like this:

Egg - 4 days > Chick (16 days maybe) > Adolescent (Until the 30th day) > Fully grown and ridable (On the 30th day)
 
Type of Care - Effect
Watch over the chocobo -Strengthens bonds of affection. Places very little stress on the chocobo

Tell a story - Strengthens bonds of affection and trains mental faculties. Telling various stories may have a beneficial effect for the chocobo.

Scold the chocobo - Disciplines the chocobo. Slightly weakens bonds of affection.

Compete against others - Strengthens bonds of affection, but depletes stamina. Entertains a bored chocobo.

Go on a walk - Strengthens bonds of affection, but depletes stamina. The chocobo may meet someone on its travels!
I just want to be able to scold my chocobo.
 
I want my chocobo to meet someone on its travels, then get their acct info, steal all their shit, and end up on NW.
 
I just got done beating my chocobo and I'm making it haul heavy crap around town to make me some gil, they get bigger on day 19 and you get new options.
 
I met three guys raising one chocobo on the regular walk, and it unlocked the "Enter a Competition" option.


And my chocobo just beat the shit out of theirs in a race.

Isollde's chocobo did the same thing. All stats were poor too. I wonder if it was just scripted to let you win. XD (Ego Boost +1)
 
idk, mine had the same thing but mine lost the race >.>

/cry
 
Mine lost the race too, it might not be based on stats, but on luck or something.
 
How anyone stay mad at these little buggers? i get pissed that mines always sick then look at how fucking cute the little bastard is and can't stay mad >.>
