Trying to get to: Shadow Blue. 49,49, 64.

Currently at: Regal Purple. 95, 42, 71.

Please help!

Trying so hard to get Shadow Blue as well, going off other people's experiences (mostly on the way to soot black :P) and some of my own experimentation. I'm on my ninth feed now. Last was sitting at Midnight Blue (which I'm currently waiting to see what 6 apples (1 proc) and 1 pear (proc) does.

This has been my journey so far: Acorn Brown > Regal Purple > Nophica Green > Currant Purple > Deepwood Green > Ink Blue > Void Blue > Midnight Blue

Wish I could help (was a Regal at one point too), but obviously I'm having some trouble getting there myself.

Yeah.... I really hope someone replies to me, since there are no guides to getting shadow blue out there. Alinah's chart doesn't have shadow blue placed anywhere on it, and the spreadsheet doesn't have a recipe for it. I have seen a lot of people getting shadow blue on the way to soot black, but no one seems to know how to explain to get there.

Help us out guys! ^^

Hello there,

you have to consider that Shadow blue is, in fact, more a really dark purple than a blue (I know, name is confusing ). I wasn't going for Soot black at all but Currant Purple .

This was my journey which lead me to shadow blue.. Turning around it and being back to it, you'll see by yourself that trying to get a blue blue won't help you :



I decided to return to Shadow Blue after the last Charcoal grey.. You see how fast I went back to it.
I figure that might also help other people to achieve some other colors as I didn't saw any charts with charcoal grey, Mole brown or woad blue yet .

Thank you for this! One thing I'm a bit sure of is what the numbers in your parenthesis is. I'm guessing it's total amount fed of each fruit, and the number listed before that is the number that received feather procs? Thanks!

You got it right, the first number is the amount of feathers proc, the one in parenthesis is how much I gave in total.
