You know how you could go digging with chocobos in xi. Well maybe they'll make a chocobo digging DoL class where you can only get certain items by digging. That would be a cool extra way to implement chocobos. :D

Hmm, we haven't really heard much about Chocobo's, have we?! I'm not that it would be implemented as a Disciple of the Land Class, though. How would you go about levelling the class? Dig for EXP? The more EXP = higher rank = better treasure?!

If anything like this were to be implemented then maybe it should be more like FFIX's Chocograph system? That would make more sense then having to level up an actual class?

(A Chocobo digging class would be interesting, though :lol: Chocobo's Guilds?! Yes please!)

I'm not familiar with the chocograph thing.

I think what yoou said would be a great idea lol (dig for exp -> more exp (higher rank) = better treasure found. I'm sure there's alot they could add to it to make it a full fledged class.

Maybe they could have abilities and stuff that would make chocobos faster, stronger, better diggers etc. Faster would be good to equip on other classes that are just riding a chocobo somewhere.

Maybe in a big update they'll make it the "chocobo class" update and have a chocobo knight type class too for DoW. If they add chocobos being stronger as an ability for a digging chocobo class, that ability would usefull for chocobo knights.

Although, I don't really see them putting chocobo knights in the game, it would be really cool. Maybe chocobo breeders could be a class too. Those people could sell chocobos that they breed (duh) but also items for the chocobos, special stuff that could make them better somehow or another.

Basically in FFIX there are various Chocobo Forests dotted about the world. When you enter the Chocobo Forests you have the chance to play 'Chocobo Hot & Cold'. Zidane hops on a Chocobo, and then you start the mini game. You have a few minutes to find treasure, by tapping X. The closer you get to the treasure the Chocobo will signal Kweh, KWEH or KWEHHH! The latter means you have found the treausre, and then you can start wildly tapping X to dig for the treasure. A number appears and if the number is higher you have to dig for longer (this also means that the treasure found is of higher value). On some occasions you will find Chocographs. These Chocographs give hints of locations that can be found somewhere on the world map. You have to ride your Chocobo to that location, and then you can dig for treasure there. You can find lots of Gil, items, etc!

Both are great ideas! Wow, I'm really hoping that Chocobos will be used for much more than just transport now.

Oh I knew what that was lol (just didn't remember the name). I remember doing that in 9 now. Chocobo classes would be the best. I picture the chocobo knights in one of the first battles with sin in x. They didn't do very good but I liked them.
