Merchants now preferred Chocobos for long, overland journeys, and the military adopted the creatures for use in highly mobile cavalry units. But once the practice of riding bareback was civilized with the invention of reins and saddles, the number of people using Chocobo mounts suddenly soared. A truly wild Chocobo is now a rare sight to behold.Įlvaan had raised Chocobos for use in farming, hunting, and general labor since before recorded history. However, as the people of Vana'diel began to realize the utility of this fleet-footed creature, more and more Chocobos were captured and domesticated. Players level 15 through 19 may rent a chocobo from the stables in San d'Oria, Bastok, or Windurst but can only ride for 15 minutes, and are not affected by equipment bonuses.Ī species native to the La Theine Plateau, the wild Chocobos were once seen racing across the plains in great numbers.
Once a license has been obtained, players level 20 or higher may rent a chocobo from a number of Chocobo Renters scattered across Vana'diel with a base riding duration of 30 minutes. In order to obtain a Chocobo License to ride a chocobo, you must first have attained level 20, and completed the Chocobo's Wounds quest in Upper Jeuno. Although chocobos do love gysahl greens, when they are housed in the stables they eat San d'Orian Carrots for their high nutritional value and Cupid Worms to build strong bones and muscles. When given a gysahl green, a chocobo will be able to dig for buried items. These birds are very fond of Gysahl Greens. Great skill is required to ride them due to their wild nature.
In the past, the Elvaan primarily used chocobos as mounts and general labor, but as of late, chocobos have been raised all over the world and are a popular form of transportation. Although too small to allow flight, the chocobo's wings assist in keeping balance and also function as a type of brake. Its size and impressive speed make it the most popular type of mount in Vana'diel. These large, herbivorous birds are unable to fly, but their powerful legs allow them to run at high speeds.
