It only means your chocobo will change color from what he is currently. First one is somewhat useful, next ones are meaningless.

Please explain.
Because my bird actually skipped several colors by following the repeated proc, process.
I initially went from default to Coral Pink and managed to stir that to Sunset Orange in only two feed sessions.
Meanwhile, others who only do the 1 proc per session rule, go from default to either Salmon Pink or Millioncorn Yellow, by using the same fruits I used.

So in my mind, I'd hardly consider it meaningless.
It has more meaning than anything to feed multiple in one session, if you know your target and amount of procs needed to exit a color and enter a new one. Unless I am missing something that you can enlighten me on.

Following my rule set, you'll need 4 feather procs of reds and 1 proc of blue.

Is my green off because of it or is it ok to leave it at that? Don't want to arrive up there at midnight blue/ink blue/kobolt brown and be screwed because I ate 2 berries too early.

So nobody can answer this?

Try the following Darkener Combo:

x5 Pear
x4 Berries
x3 Apple

This combo should result in an RGB of around 22R 26G 34B (assuming +/-5 average integer and using the original RGB spreadsheet) and should put you in the Ink Blue colour range. Remember your mileage may vary.

P.S: Don't hate me if you don't get Ink Blue my brain is getting tired of calculating colour combos. @_@

Same here, so I really appreciate your help!

I will try this tonight and hopefully will have good news in the morning.

To think I was part of the one minute roll back after feeding the chocobo last night, maybe it would have worked the first time T.T

You're probably one valfruit away to push the red slightly up and blue a bit if not all you need while lowering the green as well.

Finally!!

I was stuck in the deepwood > ink > kobold loop when I decided to start adding 1 of each lightener every session until I hit a color that wasn't the dark dark ones.

When I hit Kobold Brown again I did 1 plum, 1 valfruit, 1 pineapple, and then another plum. All 4 proc'd and resulted in Marsh Green. From there, I did what someone else had suggested from Marsh Green. They did 2 berries and 1 apple to go to Ink Blue and then from Ink 1 pineapple to black. I combined those both in to one session so from Marsh I went 2 berries, 1 apple, 1 pineapple and got black. I guess 1 berry and 1 pineapple cancel each other out so I'm guessing just 1 berry and 1 apple from Marsh would've worked too.

Either way, so glad this is done with. I was losing my sanity. Thank you to everyone here who has contributed to the discussion and research of Chocotology.

Congratulations !

So 1 pear turned it to Sky blue! XD

If you're at Blood Red, I'd try giving it 1 feather proc of red and 2 feather procs of blue.
I am currently at Dalamud and chose to stay there. But many people have posted results of going from Dalamud to Rolanberry with only 1 Berry.

Did this and got Dalamud red. So, one berry proc?
