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

[Esutiben]

My bird is also Midnight Blue. I've gotten a lot of different shades of dark blue, but no luck hitting soot black >.<

Thanks for your advice, my chocobo became Midnight Blue and I think it is so close to Soot Black. I need you again please, how can I change from Midnight Blue to Soot Black?

For both:

pineapple 2
apple 2
pear 2

Will land you at 6 6 6 away from perfect soot black, if your values are consistent, it will be soot black for sure, most have gotten it with worse variance above 10.

Fed 2 pineapple, got 1 feather change message on 2nd pineapple
Fed 2 apples, no change messages
Fed 2 pears, change message on both.

I gave him in this order:
1 pineapple (feathers) 1 pineapple (feathers)
1 apple (feathers) 1 apple (feathers)
1 pear (feathers) 1 pear (feathers)

Message of feathers growing all times. I hope this work. I spent a lot of time :S.
Thx for help Esutiben.

Was hoping to get some possible help. Tried going for the White or Snow White color, fed per the spreadsheet and it came out Lotus Pink. Should I just be feeding the fruit to lessen the red and it'd be fine or is there something else to get to the white?

Any help appreciated, thanks!

5 plums will get you there, 6 if your RGB is too high on values, but the great thing is if you keep adding plums you will land there no matter what, white is super easy that way. 5 or 6 will land the same result, no need to worry with plums sinc eit would take around 15 to start going the other way with colors. So go ahead and feed 6 to be sure if you got them.

My Conclusion is 3 Pine 1 Apple
This should arrange R>G>B which increase the chance to get soot black but i see you already feed him.Good Luck.

I guess I am close ... mine ended up Ink Blue. Since one of my 2 pineapples did not get a message, I guess that might be why it didn't hit Soot.

So... how to go from Ink Blue to Soot Black? I've seen a few people say a single pineapple got them a feather message and then they got Soot... it takes 2 pineapples for my bird to get a feather change message (I pulled him out to cancel it since I figured 2 pineapples may move him to far off on other colors.)

That said, Ink Blue is pretty good looking as well. At this point getting Soot Black is a matter of principle though.
