Chocobo Colouring woes

[majorj0nny]

Hope that helps.

thanks ! that's very useful.

so if I feed my bird any combination .. will I expect to get a message about returning in a number of hours - even though there is no actual change in the end ? Just seemed confusing that it 'seemed' to be working - then just did nothing.

Ive never seen them 'starting to grow new feathers' messages so I guess whatever fruits Ive been feeding did nothing.

also - do I have to feed in one single feed ? or can I feed one fruit... then another... then another.. within a certain time period?

I think I'll push on to 50 and start doing hunts for seals..

You can give as many fruits as you want one after another, but if there is a specific colour you want it might be best to stick to one type of fruit and stop feeding when you see the growing new feathers message. Then after it's changed feed some more and so on.

This chart might help you to get the colour you want, but keep in mind there is some RNG involved and you may get a different result than you expected. Still it's better than nothing.

1) If you didn't get a message about the bird growing new feathers the combination of fruits you gave it weren't enough to push it into a new color.

2) You can feed as many fruits as you want within the 6 hour time frame. While you can theoretically map out the types and approximate amount of fruits you can feed to go straight from Desert Yellow to any color you want, I still personally think it's a smarter idea to feed fruits until you get one feather message and then wait and see what it changes to before feeding it anything else, especially if you're new to the whole dye thing. It'll take longer to reach your desired color, but it makes it easier to plan your path and fix mistakes or overshoots.
