Chocobo Attributes

Revision as of 20:17, 26 May 2007 by Charitwo (talk | contribs)

Strength

An attribute used in Chocobo Raising that affects the chocobo’s running speed. Having Receptivity as a chocobo's dominant (highest) stat results in an ill-tempered personality.

In Chocobo Racing, increased Strength affects the chocobo's base speed.

If your chocobo's care plan is set to focus on raising Strength alone, it will most likely hit "Average" Strength mid-way through adolescence (around day 22-28).

Note: Having Strength at "Average" or above before day 29 will permanently alter the Chocobo's physical appearance as an adult. The chocobo's feet and talons will appear enlarged and its legs slightly thicker.

Increasing Strength

The Chocobo Stables offer four care plans that increase Strength: Take a Walk in Town, Exercise Alone, Carry Packages and Deliver Messages. It should be noted that Basic Care increases all stats, but only by a slight amount. The manual care option Go on a Walk and Compete against Others may increase Strength, but this is currently unknown.

Feeding a chocobo Vomp Carrots has been shown to increase Strength. During the chick phase, Carrot Paste may also be used.

Endurance

An attribute used in Chocobo Raising that affects the chocobo’s riding duration. Having Endurance as a chocobo's dominant (highest) stat results in a patient personality.

In Chocobo Racing, increased Endurance affects the chocobo's stamina.

If your chocobo's care plan is set to focus on raising Endurance alone, it will most likely hit "Average" Endurance mid-way through adolescence (around day 22-28).

Note: Having Endurance at "Average" or above before day 29 will permanently alter the Chocobo's physical appearance as an adult. The chocobo's tailfeathers will appear enlongated.

Increasing Endurance

The Chocobo Stables offer three care plans that increase Endurance: Take a Walk in Town, Exercise in a Group and Carry Packages. It should be noted that Basic Care increases all stats, but only by a slight amount. The manual care options Go on a Walk and Compete against Others may increase Endurance, but this is currently unknown.

Feeding a chocobo Vomp Carrots has been shown to increase Endurance. During the chick phase, Carrot Paste may also be used.

Discernment

Affects the chocobo’s potential to learn abilities.

An example of the enlarged beak effect

However, several conditions increase the likelihood of learning an ability. For example, around day 45, the breeder will receive a message from the trainer stating that your chocobo has entered the prime of it's life and now is the best time to work on it's attributes. This provides an increased likelihood of learning an ability. Other positive statuses such as high spirits and perkiness will also increase likelihood.

In addition, having a higher discernment, typically "A Bit Deficient" or higher, will obviously increase the likelihood of learning abilities.

Telling a story to a chocobo before having a bit deficient discernment or reaching day 45 has been proven to potentially teach it an attribute (ability), however the likelihood is very small.

If your chocobo's care plan is set to focus on raising Discernment alone, it will most likely hit average Discernment at around Day 30.

Note: By having discernment at "Average" or above before day 29 will alter your Chocobo's physical appearance. The chocobo's beak will be enlarged and the feathers on its head will be longer.


Increasing Discernment

The Chocobo stables have care plans that will give your chocobo boost in this area. Example: Exhibit to the Public A stat used in Chocobo Raising that affects the chocobo’s ability to communicate with fellow chocobos. Having Receptivity as a chocobo's dominant (highest) stat results in a sensitive personality.

In Chocobo Racing, increased Receptivity affects the chocobo's ability to avoid accidents.

It is currently unknown how Receptivity affects Chocobo breeding.

If your chocobo's care plan is set to focus on raising Receptivity alone, it will most likely hit "Average" Receptivity at around Day 30.

Note: Having receptivity at "Average" or above before day 29 will not alter your Chocobo's physical appearance.


Increasing Receptivity

Chocobo Stables offers three care plans that increase Receptivity: Listen to Music, Interact with Other Chocobos, and Act in a Play. It should be noted that Basic Care also increases Receptivity, but only by a slight amount. There are no manual care options that increase receptivity, so increases in this stat rely on the care plan.

Feeding a chocobo Zegham Carrots has been shown to increase Receptivity, but only by a slight amount.
