Two pineapples will get you to ink blue.

This unfortunately took me back to grape purple...not sure why. I can get back to midnight blue, and can probably get to kobold brown (I have before) by adding one feather proc of pears; would it be easier to get to ink blue from kobold brown or midnight blue?

Here you go:

plum 10
valfruit 2

You are a prince! Thank you!

[Shadowshinra]

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

Did that, and now ended up straight back at Currant Purple again.. Any help anyone?

Hey, if someone could answer a question for me I'd really appreciate it. I'm currently at Sunset Orange, buying apples as I scrape up enough gil (I think I've gotten four-five so far?), my ultimate goal is Dalamund Red so my question is can I get there with apples alone or am I gonna need to throw in some more fruit eventually? Thanks.

This is what you ill need total to get to Dalamud Red from where you are:

berry 10
apple 6
pear 6

Please tell me the EXACT RGB value this will produce.

Try it out for yourself on the calculator: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...ano/edit#gid=0

Not sure what post you're quoting to review the starting and desired values myself.

Reached limit for a while again, will try to reply later, hope you see this in time.

Review your math, the fruits don't cancel all values out, they cancel two in most cases, so when combined, all three values go either up or down.

Can confirm the color calculator works. Just got my Void Blue! So Happy! Ty for all the help Folken!

The calculator clearly states it isn't anything conclusive.

and feeds such as this


is pointless since Apple and Plum washes each other out. So why feed 7 apples and then wash 2 out with plums? What purpose does those recommendations of feeding 20A + 20B + 20C do?

Worked for hundreds so far, and adding 20+20+20 deepens all overall, they don't cancel out.

Also, variables apply as colors are in a range, so your soot black may be a value and mine another, so the fruit that changes within a variable we have rounded to +/- 5, will land you differently at times.
We are doing the best with what we got, and it has worked seriously hundreds of times over the almost 300 pages, feel free to check. We know this variables result in some rng and loops as well.

Also, apples and plums don't wash each other out, they affect green by canceling the red and blue values thus only affecting green.

We always said it's recommendations.

I was following this guide, trying for the black one. However, I was not able to get from Rolanberry Red to Grape Purple or Midnight Blue, instead I got to Abyssal Blue almost everytime (a few Dalamud Reds). Then feeding 1 Mamook Pear from Abyssal Blue, I managed to pop a Shadow Blue, and i'll be stickin with it for now.

Follow up to my previous post, adding blue (Berries) to Mole Brown for one step got my chocobo to Charcoal Grey. Almost at soot black, so im adding some more berries to see what happens.

2 pears from grape purple gave me shadow blue.

Its not on the color chart, so I don't know what to do to get closer to soot black anymore.
