Alright, after morbol green I fed 1x valfruit and got shadow blue.

Any advice for shadow blue -> soot black?

I've fed x1 pineapple, apple, berry, pear right now but if anyone has a reason to think that's unwise I can stop it and feed something else. I've got until about 8:30 pm EST. Please advise!

That probably lands you right back to shadow blue.

From shadow blue, try:

pineapple 1
apple 4
pear 5
berry 4

Since you already fed one of each, just 3 apples, 4pears and 3 berries before the 6 hour period is over. If not and still shadow blue, then feed the same. Tell us your results.

Alright, feeding 3 apples, 4 pears and 3 berries now. Just to be clear, when you say feed the same, you mean 1/4/5/4 right? I've been flip flopping around and looping for over a week so I want to be damn sure at this point.

Yes, I took into account the values of the ones you already fed for the results posted so you just need to add the 3 apples, 4 pears and 3 berries now before end of 6 hour cycle. By feed the same, I mean that if the six hours passed from your last feed (wasn't sure when you'd see this) and you're still at shadow blue, feed the 3 apples, 4 pears and 3 berries to reach the full 1/4/5/4 total.

Keep in mind that since there is no RGB value implemented for each variance, colors fall within a range of the exact value, and since fruits work within +/- 5, you may land in one color within +/- 10 on one, +10 on the other and -5 on the third. So when we adjust, it's based on +/- 5 and if one of yours was +/- 10 it may fall short but would land in next step, so report back either way to congratulate or adjust once more. Good luck.

Alright, according to the chart you definitely put me in a good spot as I am currently sitting at deepwood green!

Any suggestions from here? Looks like a valfruit should do it. I'm going to try that now and monitor this thread and your response to make any changes if I need to. Should be around 1:45 AM EST for the next color change. (edit: I just fed 2x valfruit and got the feather messaging. Here's hoping.)

Valfruit alone won't do it, but 2 valfruit and 2 pineapples will land you almost perfectly:

Current 51 47 39
To Target -4 0 0

Hmm, alright, I'll go chuck 2 pineapples down his gullet. Will check back at next color change.
