went that route and keep getting bone white...

Keep adding plums, it can only turn snow white. I originally said pairs mistakenly and corrected later but not sur eif you saw that in time. Go plums.

I want to clarify something: using the calculator or when told to add fruits, it's the amount of fruits that matters, not the procs. The proc indicates it changes colors, and the only one you should care about is the last fruit you feed should amount to a proc. Each fruit affects the value of color, maybe not enough each to cause it to change, but it does overall. When you feed as indicated by the calculator, feed only that, don't keep adding fruits to get that amount of procs for each. The only one you should care about is the last one. If that lands, then you should get the predicted color.

Thank you! Tried your suggestion and I've landed at Kobold Brown. What should I feed from here? I don't want to mess it up now that I'm close.

One plum should land you there.

has this been confirmed?

As you can see you very close to soot black i would wait too someone else can say go ahead and do 5 berry 5 apple and 5 pear. I thinking you would also have to get 15 overall growing message even if you feed over the 5. just wait and see what other have to say you may end up getting other color but you still be very close to black.

Has this been confirmed? I am getting low on Gil and snacks.

I went from Currant Purple to Deepwood Green.. then fed the valfruit to get to Black and ended back on Currant Purple, assuming I get back to Deepwood Green with a pear, what should I try next?

Sitting at Raptor Blue (95R, 135G, 199B) and aiming for Othard Blue (55R, 95G, 143B). Difference of -40, -40, -56.
I'm thinking feeding equal amounts of lighteners (plum, valfruit, pineapple) will do the trick, with maybe 8-10 of each and perhaps an extra couple of pineapples, but just wanted to confirm on here before I do it to make sure I'm on the right track.

Any thoughts?

From deepwood it's not one valfruit, it's:
pineapple 2
valfruit 2

So when you said "pear 7
plum 3 and
berry 6" it's only these fruits ?
Because i haven't got any "new feathers" mesages on pears :S It doesn't matter ?

And you confirm it's that for dalamud to soot black ?

Thanks
