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

[Snootles]

Alright I need some help.

-snip character limit-

How should I proceed? D:

Stop feeding it mixed fruits. It is so unnecessary and most likely will you just bounce you through a bunch of colours. Sky Blue is easily obtained through just Doman Plums from Desert Yellow on.
There is no 'tweaking' colours by giving it mixed fruits. It's becoming clearer and clearer that it's just presets. Check my sheet, it will become much more clear then.

I'm currently at Rooooooyaaal Blueeee (Guess that quote) and would like to get to Soot Black, Tips?

i would feed it a o'ghomoro berry until you get the feather once

Well, I fed it one berry and got the growing feathers message, now let's see in 6 hours.

SetoKaiba,

I'ld suggest to feed it plums.
Feed till one growing feather message, you "should"( it is possible to skip colors) land on Raptor blue, from there you should feed some more plums until and other growing feather message and it should bring you to sky blue.

Alright, thanks.
The new feathers message procced after the first feed for me. Will report back when ready!

Try Rythea's calculator. Got me out of the loop and to the color I wanted and couldn't get:

This simulator seems quite perfect and can calculate all jumps in one go. (you can go from your yellow to black in one sitting if you so choose)

Copy the original, as it's read only.

Select the color you have now or had before feeding last, then the one you desire.

Erase the current fruit names and quantities from the white fields on big chart, nothing else (or you will erase the v-lookup formulas)

Type in the fruits you just fed or are thinking of feeding and it will calculate the end result, as you add and remove fruits you'll see what the next result is (and it seems very accurate and the range of +/- 5 doesn't seem to need adjustment.)

The chart can be used as reference, failed for me but the idea of what to feed overall works: https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1814x979q90/661/vBZmlD.png

Snootles, I sent you a bunch of single fruit feeds and their results of my fc members, exluded blood to dalamund to rolanberry since that seems to be a confirmed method.
Will keep yoru charts open to report further changes.

Dalamund Red from Desert Yellow on the first try! Thank you all for the very insightful research and development!

Check my post above yours. The calculator will tell you where you are, where you need to go and use the flow chrt to add fruits as indicated to get to Soot black, adjusting quantities as needed.

Your red is currently too high,your green slightly so. You will probably need some berries, but don't go overboard. Adding that many fruits is a waste and changes cap sooner with just one or two feeds.

I just checked and 15 berries, 11 pears and 1 apples should land you on soot black

Do the numbers you input equal the raw amount of fruits or "feather procs"?
