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

Alright so now my chocobo is at Qiqurn Brown from shale brown last night. Fed him 3 berries, 5 pears and 5 apples. I dont think i understand how this works so any help would be great on what i should feed him next to get to grape purple. Thanks!

1 valfruit and you're there Philio. Let me know if it works, I'm chasing the soot black dragon too.

Fed 1 Valfruit but no change.. does it not that lighten it?

My goal from here is Soot Black 37,35,30 .. with Midnight Blue being SO close I am inclined to use one pear and one apple to nudge the red and green up while dropping the blue value. Any thoughts before i go through with it?

You're right Midnight Blue is sooo close.

Current Color: Midnight Blue
20R, 21G, 49B

Desired Color: Soot Black
37R, 35G, 30B

I would probably use something like this combo:

x4 Pineapples
x1 Berries

This should *knockonwood* put your end values roughly around 35R, 36G, 34B (assuming +/- 5 average integer) which is almost bang on to Soot Black; RNG is still a factor depending on where you're at in the Midnight Blue values so mileage may vary.


Using the pear likely won't work, because you'd deepen green but reduce blue and red; you don't want to drop your red you need to raise it.

Hey guys, I am aiming for deepwood green, currently at apple green, anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Feeding 2 Valefruits did not get me a message about feathers... Here's the current info on what I have

Current Color: Deepwood Green -> R25 G36 B28

Desired Color: Soot Back -> R37 G35 B30

I just fed him 2 Valfruits (Lightens Green) but no feather changing message... any suggestions?

Mostly blue, with a large amount of red and green that doesnt surpass the amount of blue being fed. It's as close to black as it gets, but with more blue mixed into it.

How do i get the black?

[KamikazeMan]

I fed it 3 more O'ghomoro berries overnight (message at the third) and it changed from Seafog to Raptor Blue.



Wonder how I can go to Othard blue from here

I had Raptor Blue while trying to get Othard Blue as well. I fed it two more darken blue fruits (two feather procs), and got Othard Blue.

If anyone is keeping track:

I got Lilac Purple in 3 steps:

(From Desert Yellow default)
STEP 1: Fed 5 apples, got "new feather" message 4 times.
Result: from Desert Yellow to Millioncorn Yellow

STEP 2: Fed 10 berries, got "new feather" message 4 times
Result: from Millioncorn Yellow to Coral Pink

STEP 3: Fed 5 more berries, ONLY GOT "new feather" MESSAGE ONE (1) TIME!!
Result: from Coral Pink to Lilac Purple.

Please note that contrary to the existing color charts etc, I was able to achieve coral pink and the lilac purple using only apples and berries (no valfruit). Just thought people may want to know.

I would keep feeding your chocobo valfruit till you get a message, if that's a confirmed way to get from deepwood green to black. Sometimes it will take more than 1 or 2.
