Final Fantasy XV - Chocobo and Chocobo Races Guide

- Chocobo Final Fantasy XV and Chocosfide Guide - The cute giant yellow chicks are a real engine of the Final Fantasy series and its characters. In this fifteenth chapter we'll have to unlock them, train them and prepare them for the Chocosfides. How to do it? You've come to the right place!

This section of our guide will show you how to unlock the CHOCOBO and everything you need to know about them and the CHOCOSFIDES in the game.

HOW TO UNLOCK CHOCOBO RENTAL STATIONS

From the very first minutes of the adventure you will have realized that there are real rental stations where you can get Chocobo. These are not active and will only be accessible after visiting the WIZ CHOCOBO STATION at the beginning of Chapter 3. After stopping at the COERNIX SERVICE STATION, you accept the PROMPTION proposal and activate the SECOND MISSION - CHOCOBO ARRIVE!

To finish this mission you will first have to talk to WIZ as soon as you get the chance and then talk to him again to access his hunting requests. You will have to finish the request called THE DUSCAE HUB and then talk to WIZ again to get 1500 ESP, a whistle for Chocobo and the activation of all the rental points on Lucis. But in detail let's see what hunting is offered by Wiz.

HUNTING REQUEST - THE NIGHTMARE OF DUSCAE

You'll have to go to the EYESHOUSE HOLE and eliminate it once and for all. After following him in the fog, in silence and without being spotted, the fight will start with him. Eye-eye and a BEHEMOT vulnerable to fire, swords and shields. To inflict even more damage you can detonate the explosive barrels in the area with fire spells. However, always be ready to parry when the monster moves its paw or tail because it could launch deadly attacks. A level of at least 15 is required.

HOW THE CHOCOBO WORKS AND HOW TO LEVEL THEM UP

Once unlocked, the Chocobo can be rented at any station on the continent. Just buy a rental ticket and call the Chocobo with the whistle. The longer the purchase time, the higher the price of the animal. Chocobos have basic characteristics that influence SPEED, HEIGHT OF JUMP and VIGOR.
