I did keep a log of program messages, and noted their variance, but I didn't do anything in relation to them, as I was feeding daily at a set time. Only the "beginning to grow new feathers" message seems to have had any significance. However, I can post the daily messages if someone wants them.
I'd like to point out that the Actual message given other than the feather change one is "(chocobo's name)'s plumage will be ready for change in 6 hours." Will be ready for change. At no point does it state that it IS changing. It only states that the plumage will be ready for a change.
That's important to consider if you want to figure this out. Don't ignore the first message.
I can't get my chocobo's "feather changing" message right now, in fact, it only gave me the "ready for change" notice once. The last time this happened to me, I waited the 6 hours (which feeding him more does not reset as I THINK it resets when it says the "feather changing" message).
Once you feed your bird, you get the "ready for change message". It means nothing other that you have a six hour window to feed your bird and get the "growing new feathers" message. Once you get that a change will occur when that 6 hour timer expires, as long as you don't fetch your bird before then.
I only fed my bird berries. I don't know if when you get multiple "feathers" messages if it means you will go through different progression of the color change when the timer expires. Does anyone have data on that?
i.e. you want Gobbue Grey coming from Desert Yellow. You feed your bird until you receive 4 "feathers" messages then stop. When the 6 hours are up and you check your bird, is it Gobbue Grey or did it go through only one color change?
I need help, i keep going in circles. How do i get from Ink Blue to Soot Black?
I AM SO SUPER EXCITED!:D
I turned my chocobo Lotus Pink!
I followed someone's advice online and it worked!
Steps:
Start with default yellow color.
Feed chocobo:
15 x Doman Plums
6 x Cieldalaes Pineapples
12 x Valfruit
I did this in one feeding. I fed it one of each fruit, then rotated.
Ex: 1 Doman, 1 Pineapple, 1 Valfruit , repeat until all gone.
I did NOT stop at the first feather proc "Chocobo is growing new feathers/ New feathers begin to appear". I kept going until all the fruit was finished. I got the feather proc about 7-10 times during this feeding.
Kept it in stable for 6 hours, came back and it had turned Snow White.
Then I fed it Valfruit until I got the FIRST feather proc message and stopped.
This took me exactly 6 Valfruit to get to the first feather proc. The other person who did this only took 4 Valfruit to get feather proc. So just stop at the first feather proc.
Waited 6 more hours, came back and it was Lotus Pink!
YAY! Goodluck!
so if i'm looking to get Cactuar Green 94 123 58
this will work if i alternate as best as i can with that amount?
Xelphatol Apple x10, Mamook Pear x10, O'Ghomoro Berries x15
can someone help me, i've been trying to change my chocobo color to snow white for about a week now.
It's like stuck on cream yellow , i followed the ffxvi chocobo color calculator but it doesnt change for days.
what should i feed him to get snow white ??
I can't remember off the top of my head but the fruit that dilutes the color I believe is your best bet. I would feed till you get a message and wait to see the outcome. Then repeat the process if it didn't make the desired change. If you are at cream yellow, if it's reliant on a color wheel, then eventually diluting it will make it white....could be way off though.
ok i tried using the chart... i went from lime green to cream yellow, now i'm way off from getting cactuar green, should i restart or?
hmm i got to meadow green and i fed it berries like the guide said to get cactuar green, it sent me to seafog blue instead.
thats as far as i go until i get more money for fruits, i guess the other method is way better to do, i don't get the final results i wanted from single fruits
