The Chocobo serves as the game’s main mount in A Realm Reborn. At level 20, the tale unlocks the task to complete the Chocobo.
After then, players can join a Grand Company and start the My Little Chocobo Chocobo quest.

Legacy Chocobo
You can get a heritage Chocobo if you have a service account with a paid membership duration of at least 90 days between January 6, 2012, and the beginning of version 2.0 beta testing. In FFXIV: ARR, the legacy chocobo has no distinguishing qualities or unique skills. The legacy gamers are drawn to the many visual variations for their support of the legacy version during the move to 2.0.
Anyone with a qualifying legacy account can get their legacy chocobo using the Moogle Mail system in any Nation State or camp where the Moogle Mail region resides after version 2.0 is released. To find the closest location, look for the moogle Mail icon on your map. Once you have access to the mail, a letter from the SE team with your Legacy Chocobo whistle inside will be sent to you. Once the whistle has been acquired and is available in the player’s inventory, they can use it whenever they want to summon their Legacy Chocobo mount by casting the whistle on themselves.

Your Chocobo will continue to acquire experience points even if you reach your maximum level and can no longer gain them by defeating foes who are 10 levels below you.

Stabling your Chocobo
One choice you have is to keep your Chocobo in a stable when not in use. While it has no direct effects, stabled Chocobos can still be subjected to a number of interactions.
Requierements to use the stables
You can use the stables by completing the third quest in the previously specified questline: Bird in Hand, offered by Luquelot in the Central Shroud (X: 20.2 Y: 21.6).
No of your level or the level of your Chocobo, you can put it in the Chocobo Stable as long as you have completed the quest and have access to one.
Please be aware that your Chocobo cannot be called on the field in order to stabilize it. Your Chocobo’s dismissal is accessible via the Companion menu.
Your Chocobo cannot be mounted or utilized in combat while it is stabled.
Where to find a stable?
A stable can be utilized from an apartment building, a home, a shared home, or a Free Company House.
Apartment complex: If you live in an apartment complex, a stable is available for use just close to the front door of the structure.
House: If you are fortunate enough to own a home, you can utilize the Chocobo Stable as outdoor furniture in your yard.
Shared House: If you lived in someone else’s home and they had a Chocobo Stable, you may use it if the proper permission has been granted.
A Chocobo Stable may be located in the garden of a Free Company house, just like one may in a private residence. If your rank in the Free Company has been granted the necessary right, you may utilize it.
The Use of a Chocobo Stable
You can interact with your Chocobo in a stable in a number of ways.
Training: You can instruct your Chocobo or another person’s Chocobo to acquire experience by feeding it a Chocobo food, such as Krakka Root.
Changing favorite food: Your Chocobo’s favorite food will change if you train it with the same special Chocobo meal ten times. This will change the bonus it receives when using this item on the field, which depends on its new favorite food.
Changing color: When fed in the proper quantity, some additional Chocobo food besides that used for training can change the color of your Chocobo.
Renaming: You can give your Chocobo a new name in the stable.
Training Chocobo Through Stable
Once you have access to a stable, you can train both your own and other players’ Chocobos there once every hour. The trained Chocobo will receive experience points for doing so.
Chocobo Food
You need Chocobo food to reward a Chocobo during training. You can eat Krakka Root, Curiel Root, Sylkis Bud, Pahsana Fruit, Tantalplant, Mimett Gourd, and Thavnairian Onion, among other Chocobo foods.
These meals will all award the same number of experience points.
Krakka Roots can be cultivated from seeds purchased on the marketboard or for 3,480 gils from material suppliers in residential areas or Tanie at Gridania.
The seeds germinate in three days and produce nine Krakka roots in regular soil, eleven in grade I Shroud Top Soil, thirteen in grade II Shroud Top Soil, and eighteen in grade III Shroud Top Soil.
Favorite Food
If you feed the same food to your Chocobo ten times while training, it will learn that food as a favorite. Your Chocobo will benefit from having a favorite snack when it is employed on the field.
Only the Curiel Root, Sylkis Bud, Pahsana Fruit, Tantalplant, and Mimett Gourd—not the Krakka Root or the Thavnairian Onion—can be a favorite meal.
By giving your Chocobo the same food 10 times in a row during training, you can alter its favorite food.
Be careful to train your Chocobo with this meal or Krakka Roots, or to vary the food so that you are not feeding it the same thing ten times in a row, if you don’t want to change the food that it loves.
Since you are unable to set a favorite meal for another player’s Chocobo, no matter what food is used, if another player is feeding your Chocobo, neither they nor you will be able to set a favorite food or reset it.
Stable Condition
There are three different levels of cleanliness for the stable: good, fair, and poor. This condition affects the training experiences that Chocobos will have and can be improved by using a Magicked Stable Broom.
A good condition provides the whole experience.
Gives 80% of the experience in fair condition.
provides 60% of the experience when in poor condition.
You can visually inspect the stable to determine its state; glistening straw indicates a good condition, typical straw indicates a fair condition, and scattered straw indicates a bad condition.
Experience given by training
The number of experience points earned by Chocobos in a stable and good state is listed below.
- Rank 0: 50
- Rank 1: 320
- Rank 2: 760
- Rank 3: 1640
- Rank 4: 3600
- Rank 5: 4410
- Rank 6: 4900
- Rank 7: 7000
- Rank 8: 9400
- Rank 9: 12000
- Rank 10: 13120
- Rank 11: 14560
- Rank 12: 15730
- Rank 13: 16620
- Rank 14: 17240
- Rank 15: 17580
- Rank 16: 17650
- Rank 17: 17770
- Rank 18: 18020
- Rank 19: 18100
Training Timers
For Chocobo training, there are two timers: one for the owner and one for each player.
The owner timer means that the owner can train its own Chocobo every hour, regardless of whether or not someone else trained it during the same hour.
Because of the other players’ timer, anyone can train your Chocobo every hour, regardless of whether you trained it during that hour or not. The fact that this timer affects everyone else means that no two players may train the same Chocobo, which is not theirs, in the same hour.
For the first hour after a Chocobo enters the stable, only the owner can train it.
Ranking Up in the Stable
Chocobos are not able to advance in the stable. When an experience bar is full, the rank number of the creature appears in orange in the stable menu, and anyone attempting to train it will be informed that no experience will be obtained.
You must take your Chocobo back from the stable and engage it in a battle you would get experience from in order to rank it up once your Chocobo experience bar is full.
There are two options if you have reached your maximum level and want to give your Chocobo experience: either you can do FATEs with your Chocobo or you can fight enemies whose levels are lower than 10 of yours (for example, if you are level 80, you can fight enemies who are level 70), and your Chocobo will gain experience.
Chocobo Cosmetic Customization
You must give your Chocobo a name when you first obtain it, and it will bear your Grand Companion’s badge. You can further personalize your Chocobo by altering its color and/or barding. These modifications are purely aesthetic and have no bearing on the metrics.
Barding
Bardings are glitzy clothing for your chocobo that only serve to enhance its appearance.
They are composed of a head, body, and legs.
The barding components from several sets can be combined, and you can switch things up as often as you choose.
Both in the field and on mounting the chocobo, the barding will be visible.
Your Grand Company grants you your first barding. As you rise through the ranks of the Grand Company, you can purchase more goods from them.
Bardings can be obtained in a variety of methods, including buying some with different currencies and making a lot of them through crafting.
Color
Each and every Chocobo starts out as Desert Yellow. By giving your Chocobo special food, you can alter this hue if you have access to a stable.
The following six fruits can be used to alter color: Apple, Mamook Pear, Doman Plum, Valfruit, Cieldalaes Pineapple, O’Ghomoro Berries, and Xelphatol Berries.
Han Lemon is used to restore the hue to its original state of Desert Yellow.
Only horticulture will yield these fruits; the seeds are purchased from your Grand Company’s Hunt Billmaster with Allied Seals.
The best way to change the color of your Chocobo is to adhere to a guide. A calculator at ffxivchocobo.com can help you determine which fruits to give your bird and in what order.
- You can give the fruits one after another without having to wait.
- Strictly follow the feeding order of the website
- Once the fruits given, you have to wait 6 hours for the color to change
- Don’t take your Chocobo out of the stable in the 6 hours following the feeding
- There is a part of randomness so your Chocobo might not be the color you want
- If the color is not what you wanted, you can use the new color as a new starting point and try again
Thavnairian Onion
Thavnairian Onions are the most important item if you wish to maximize the potential of your Chocobo Companion.
Why is it needed
You’ll note that once your Chocobo reaches rank 10, it stops gaining experience and ranks. The highest rank a Chocobo can achieve is rank 20, nevertheless.
A Thavnairian Onion will unlock the next rank once the Chocobo has reached its maximum current rank and is no longer gaining experience. This will allow it to continue to receive experience until it reaches the next rank.
Accordingly, one Thavnairian Onion is required for each level, for a total of 10 Onions to achieve rank 20.
Your Chocobo will gain skill points with each level, and at rank 20, it will have enough to complete all three skill trees and obtain any connected bardings.
How to use it
A Thavnairian onion cannot be used at any time. The Onion won’t work if the conditions are not satisfied.
These prerequisites must be satisfied in order for a Thavnairian Onion to have any impact:
- Chocobo must be at rank 10 or upper
- Chocobo experience bar must be empty
- Chocobo must not be able to gain experience anymore
Once you have verified everything, you can offer your chocobo an onion.
Your Chocobo can receive a Thavnairian Onion through the Stable, training with the Onion as a prize.
Calling your Chocobo into the field and feeding it the Thavnairian Onion as you would any other Chocobo meal would be another cruel option.
