Chocobo dyeing R&D Thread - Post your results here!

Ooh nice work all. Our seeds will get harvested today I think. First thing I'm going to do is pump my choco full of +blues to see if it goes white but look forward to seeing everyone's pics. We need to solve this mystery ASAP. :D

I'll help you out a little here.

If RGB is TRUE and Chocobo value is TRUE AND "+Blue" slides along the scale towards brightness, in spite of it saying "darkening" then you'll get white.
if RGB is TRUE and Chocobo value is TRUE and +Blue is as advertised, you're actually not gonna move the color at ALL. It's going to get more yellow if anything, because the yellow in question may not be "true yellow"

There's other potential results, but the odds of you getting white that way are not the strongest. Good luck to you though. I'm doing the same thing with my bird, but I'm trying to make it dark blue. (I'm hoping current value of the chocobo is a null value and RGB is inverse.)

Same for me, but with Black. There's only two colors of chocobo I want mine to be, Red or Black. Red seems easy enough to obtain if you just feed it enough of the red plant. Black on the other hand.. I wanna know before I start messing around.

If it goes by RGB and the starting value is yellow: to get red, you remove green. Not add red.

But it says "desert yellow", which isn't normal yellow. To get red, you'd remove green and blue. Otherwise you will have maroon.

If you all are right, will feeding my chocobo red and blue light, and darken green, make it purple?

I agree! Sadly the brown-messes may work better for my chocobo since I just renamed him to Mocha Brownie @_@

I'm sure it is not the feather tips to keep the bonus chocobos special (the only chocobos with colored feather tips)

36 o'ghomoro berries harvested using T3 Shroud Soil, very fast growth. Dye berries will be cheap enough.

The first berry you give tells you "(your bird's name)'s plumage will change in 6 hours." You can still feed it again immediately but I did not get the color change message, so it may have been wasted.

Also, remember that you can't remove your chocobo from the stables for those 6 hours!
