Caravan Escort Q&AFollow

Got a few extra details to answer some of the questions that were presented here, and elsewhere. Sorry for the delay in getting these details for you all.


Disciples of War & Magic level 25 and up that have pledged their allegiance to a Grand Company can participate. The enemies’ strength will not change depending on the player's level.


Yep, it is possible to enter as a party. Caravan security will function the same way as Behest and allow up to four players to participate at once. Caravan security sessions will take place every 15 minutes.


The number of players involved will not affect the number of enemies or the strength of the enemies. The content may be very difficult to solo.


Chocobo food will be sold by vendor NPCs in each city-state and the caravan security reception NPC. There will also be other methods to acquire this food!


When you select the chocobo, a command is displayed, and you can choose to provide them with food from the displayed menu.


Nope, you won’t be able to join in the operation with a member of a different Grand Company. Also, you will only be able to take part in caravan security from the aetheryte associated with your Grand Company’s city-state. For example, only members of Ul'dah's Immortal Flames can join the caravan security operation in Camp Horizon.


Yep.

The four people per 15 minutes also kind of worries me, but I also have a feeling that these kinds of activities are going to continue to be implemented for a long time, so eventually this will be more than adequate for these escort quests.

The 4 people every 15min is not something i take lightly. If 200 players line up to do it, that's 50 groups of 4 at 15min interval is 12.5 hours. Assuming a lock out exists so you can't finish it, warp back and start again. I really do hope that it plays out better than it reads.

I highly doubt it would be that congested for long. Most behests I do don't even have four people.

So far, this hase been the only thing announced to repeatedly give seals and people will bum rush it to get at least enough seals for their rank and chocobo. I hope it does die down quick, but me thinks that for at least the first month all three camps will look like Horizon Behests did about a year ago.

Actually, I seem to remember in the guild leve revisions a note about how new leves will be available from campaign hq counters. I'm guessing these new leves will be the new way to rack up fast campaign seals.
