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

[Rustyhagun]

Going to confer my notes.

As everyone has said. Royal Blue has a berry cap. And once the chocobo hits that cap, you want to start feeding it apples and pears to get it darker.

I can attest that having the color Royal Blue will indeed put the Chocobo at Midnight Blue if you feed him 6 pear 5 apple 1 berry, in any order. (Stable was in good condition.)

Royal Blue --> 6pear, 5 apple 1 berry = Midnight blue.

Going to ride him a bit like this and get some quests done.

Then I'm going to see if...

Midnight Blue --> 2 pineapples = Soot Black.

..as someone previously mentioned they got results for.

From my Actual experience I can tell you this. If you feed him 2 pineapples from midnight blue and both of them get the growing feathers thing you will prob end up in abyssal blue like I did.

So be careful just in case

So I need a bit of help understanding this spreadsheet. I'm aiming for Sky Blue. It says I need "O'Ghomoro Berry x13, Mamook Pear x10, Valfruit x1, Doman Plum x5 /// O'Ghomoro Berry x12, Doman Plum x11, Xelphatol Apple x3 // Doman Plum x28." From my understanding, that means that those are my 3 options of feeding it in order to get that color. I was going to go the Doman Plum route, but it also says that 28 Doman Plums makes, Celeste Green. Do the /// and // mean something else, like I'm supposed to feed it that batch first, and then feed it the next?

Read that big yellow box up the top Do NOT use that spreadsheet, it was made when people were under the impression x amounts of fruit would give a specific colour.

You need some combination of those fruits, but the exact numbers may be totally different for you

i had my chocobo sunset orange i gave him 10 apple 10 berries (100% "procs" )and got damamud red
should not be possible the feed must have done -56 -64 -24

so my theories of when the color change it could set his values at the new color values is false
the color system could be not rgb but cmyk , or no symetrical +5-5-5 model

From my theory,the proper feeding order to get dalamud red from sunset orange is
12 berry 8 pear 7 apple
But if i calculate with your fruits,the color should end up rolanberry red instead which RGB numbers pretty roughly close to dalamud red.
So i'm not surprise much with your experiment,maybe the "hq" proc effects the outcome.
Its normal for the result a bit off on the big feed session.

Well I didn't get feather proc after 1 feed of pineapples, it actually took 4 pineapple feeds to get Ink Blue, but I got it. And I'm kinda liking the color. Its the darkest and the blue does not show up when the sun hits the feathers, but instead a drk grey-ish blue.

So I think I'm sticking with Ink Blue. As I'm just 1 feed away from getting black, if I change my mind.
