We are in the same boat, and I don't think play any DLC or buy until the price down.

So I'm guessing the three new comrades trophies are a free update right? Currently downloading version 1.23... I'm hoping I don't need ps plus for this.

[Alantor32]

Oh my god. The trophy list for the royal pack and new Comrades DLC is amazing as hell. Once I get some funds for my PSN Wallet, I am gonna get those trophies. >:)

I started playing the new Comrades update today. Mild spoilers about the new quests ahead.

 

Spoiler

The new content is initiated by finding the black chocobo at the Exineris Power Plant in Lestallum. I think you must have 7 royal sigils (which are all that were available pre-update) to start this line of quests, but I'm not sure, since I already maxed everything out before the update. The quests lead you to power up Port Caem first, then North Duscae.

 

You will find a chocobo training area and chocobo fighting arena in the new content area. To max out your chocobo, make sure to always max out the yellow lines underneath the attributes (you will know what I mean when you see it). Your chocobo will have a max level of 50 first, but by maxing out these yellow lines, the level cap will increase by 10. Rinse and repeat until level 99. You need nothing but patience for this (your chocobo can get hurt while training). Takes less than 30 minutes. If you somehow f***** up, you can find new chocobo in certain quests.

 

The royal sigils trophy needs you to find all 13 sigils. 6 new have been added in the update. Your chocobo will need overall values of >200 and >65 km/h to find all sigils, since the new pathways on the map are found via your chocobo. This means that a level 99 chocobo is nearly a requirement to find all royal sigils anyway (my level 99 green chocobo has 215, 220, 91 km/h). The hard part about this trophy is that some new quests to unlock the royal sigils go up to level 80. I only played 3 hours in the new content now and I have 10 of 13 sigils.

 

The Comrades quest is an all-new quest that can be selected via the quest menu. You will play as either Noctis, Gladio, Ignis or Prompto (your choice). It has no level requirement, everything is pre-set in this quest. Play it 4 times with each character once and that's it. I haven't tried the quest myself yet, but I imagine it'll be easy and exists mostly for story-purpose.

 

All in all the 3 new Comrades trophies should be pretty easy for everybody who already invested some time in the DLC before. Level grinding to get all royal sigils will take some time though, but there are many new and hard quests with high exp output to keep the player invested.

Could you explain some more how to increase your max chocobo level? As mine seem to get stuck at their max level of 50 or 60.

 

Edit: Nvm, I figured it out.

 

Also the comrades quest is actually the hardest as you can't play with your OP build and the AI is shit as usual.

Quick question.

So if you already grinded everything out prepatch. 999.999Kw etc. How long would it take for all multiplayer trophies you think?

I'm only focused on the trophies and just want to rush these as quick as possible.

Under 10 hours I guess.

 

I started today with 375.000 kW left and now I'm at the end I have 227.000 kW left. So you need about 150.000 kW for openening everything on the grid. Currently stuck at the Final Boss (I think) just before collecting my final sigil. Even with my OP build character I can't beat him with AI. As this isn't a quest but a storyline mission, can this Boss be done online with others or are you stuck with the AI?

Oh I'm not stuck, just curious whats ahead of me as grinding to 999.999 seriously got me crazy. But it's good to know its under 10 hours as I really really dont want to grind for hours upon hours at 1 quest to get 1 trophy

Lol, no I'm stuck at the final boss, which I won't spoil. I hope you put some effort in getting good weapons and maxing stats because it's hard.

Ah well, now you figured it out, and I just caught a new chocobo and made some screenshots to show you.

 

I'll just leave this gallery here for anyone interested:

It shows what kind of level ups I chose for my chocobo, focused on the filling the yellow bar beneath "Ausdauer" (it's German, should be something like endurance) towards a white one.

Nevermind I found out.

I have problem with maxing chocobo level to 99. It always let me max chocobo lines via training twice and then it show no new lines to max, just a line to go up 10 levels higher and than it stuck. What em I doing wrong?

Every time you train your chocobo, the lines beneath stamina, jump and top speed will increase showed by a yellow line. Before you hit the next max rank, those three yellow lines need to be white.

This will increase your max rank by 10, and you have to repeat the process. I ended up with a lvl 99 chocobo with 220 stamina, 228 jump and 124 top speed. More than enough to open all roads. Good luck.

 

Edit: I don't know if it makes a difference but I did it with a green chocobo.

Edited March 5, 2018 by BB-BakkerJ

[KutaragG]

Well as I said, it does not work for me. I catched chocobo level 30. There was one line for jump. I have maxed the line and it gave me 10 more levels to increase. New lines appears under stamina and speed. I have maxed the lines and got another 10 levels to rank up my chocobo. However, this time no new lines appeared under the stats, so I can only max chocobo rank 10 times and its over...?

Well what kind of chocobo did you have? I got a lvl 60 green chocobo and could max out all lines to lvl 99 no problem. So maybe it does depend on the type of chocobo you catch as my two black ones also got stuck at lvl 50 and 60.

[KutaragG]

I was able to catch max 40 level chocobo. He stacked at 60 as my initial 50 black one. So far I catched like 10 more birds mostly level 20 and 10. Seems a bit luck based trophy ?

[Am4z1n9_AZ]

KutaragG is right sometimes after earning a new 10 levels for the chocobo it doesn't give the option to upgrade again. You'll notice this with no yellow line/s under Stamina/Jump/Speed which obvious needs maxing the certain stat/s needed to fill the bar up so it turns white in order to meet the requirement to earn another 10 levels. If that happens your chocobo has reached it's peak, I don't know why it does that maybe it just depends on the chocobo I guess.

The chocobo I got to level 99 was a green one. I catched him at level 50, initial level cap was 60. It seems I got lucky, since this was the first chocobo I caught.

 

Btw. I played the comrades quest as Gladio and Prompto last night, with other human players, and it was super easy.  

 

And I‘m at 12/13 sigils now. The last one however is extremely difficult to get. I‘m level 57 and I have very decent gear (1700 atk) and managed to get the health of this boss down to half.

[Aexuz]

Wait... so to unlock the new route you need to beat that level 70 quest "A familiar fright"

I'm only at level 41 and even with 3 other human players we coudn't beat that fight on time.

What's your defence though? I switched my sigil to the fierce sigil which boosts Hp and defence by 50%. I was level 48 and beat him quite easily with these stats. Attack 1000 Defence 900 Fire resistence 100%. The rest doesn't matter. When I had 1800 attack and 500 defence the fight was much, much harder. (Couldn't beat him) Good luck.

You don't need to beat it if you're just going for the trophies, I'm playing offline because I don't have plus and this is impossible for me.

Finally done it. Catched choco level 50 and pushed it all the way to 99. I think the initial level matters the most.?

[DEMON]

Is the Omega trophy glitched or is there hidden requirements to be in normal mode difficulty? Nevermind, trophies are glitched and seemly may require closing and re-entering the game.

Edited March 6, 2018 by DEMON

[Deluziion90]

So how does this chocobo stuff work?

Do I need to select a quest with a yellow chocobo next to it to capture a wild one?

My first one got stuck at 50/50 ?

[Alantor32]

FFXV Royal Pack is out finally and it costs $14.99. I need to get an $20 PSN card to purchase it.
