Royal Blue + Apples can = Regal Purple (most common), Abyssal Blue (uncommon) or Midnight Blue (seems rare, happened to my hubby last night. No others reports of it)Quote:

...Unless I get like, Snow White. Then we can all rage quit at this. -
08-29-2014, 05:59 AMLyricalMelodyMy notes on my spreadsheet say this for Snow White:Quote:

As we gather more data it seems that many colors have a chance to go to one of a few colors. There seems to be sort of a common-uncommon-rare type of chance as to which color it will be. -

Argh.. Guess I know what I'm doing next.
Not Apples or Valfruit from Rolanberry... Pears now and coming from the red side.
Now I just hope those Valfruit somehow dumped me back down to Sunset Orange, but I doubt it. -
08-29-2014, 06:16 AMShikaBy the way Snootles... I ended up back at Currant Purple from Deepwood Green after feeding a Valfruit. So, I have given George one pear this time, and received the "growing new feathers" from that single pear. I will let you know what colour it changes to.Quote:

Starting to think that my chocobo just doesn't want to go Soot Black XD -
08-29-2014, 06:58 AMBoomerzHi Shika. From Currant Purple, I recommend 3 apples, 3 pears, and 1 berry all in one feeding to get soot black. Let me know if this works!Quote:

Hi, just wanted to report something I didn't find anywhere else yet :

08-29-2014, 08:48 AMTyrfinaThat's awesome. I actually contemplated what the colors/fruits system would look like in a 3 dimensional cartesian coordinate system, but i didn't have the time yet to examine the observational data to validate the hypothesis. What kind of accuracy are you getting?Quote:

From a programmer's perspective (me): while the spreadsheets and charts might be useful for most people to see and predict how they go from one color to another, it would make almost no sense to write code which WORKED in this fashion. It would be obscure, and frankly a coding clusterf***. While it is easier to SEE it as walking a color tree, there is a SYSTEM in place. A mathematical formula which determines what color you arrive at, we just haven't figured it out yet. But this theory seems extremely promising.Quote:
