Either purple or lime green

How about color, barding (optional) and name? You can easily rename your chocobo, after all.

(I know you can't actually have mixed caps in Chocobo names.)

I named my Chocobo Quicksilver, so I feel I have to dye him as close as I can to some kind of silver.

....but I'll probably end up doing black like a lot of people will.

White or black it'll be fuckin majestic

Assuming nothing changes, when Patch 2.35 is released I plan on dying my Chocobo using the Soot Black dye. Black Chocobo was always my favorite, thanks in large part to Final Fantasy Tactics.

What'cha gonna do?

Ink Blue dye for me^^ It's blacker than Soot Black!

I think everyone's assuming the dye will be complete but I think it'll follow the examples we've already seen. Some wings and tail feathers may be coloured but I think the bulk of the birds will still be yellow. Take for example the black tipped legacy chocobo or the white tipped dual rider chocobo for recruiters. It seems like that's the extent of the unique colouring: tips only.

If full body feather dying becomes a thing, that'd be great. I just wouldn't hold my breath for it after a couple of examples against that concept.

I think everyone's assuming the dye will be complete but I think it'll follow the examples we've already seen.

I'm not so sure about that. I should probably look for the specific source where it's said, but I do recall reading somewhere that Yoshi-P stated that chocobos will be able to regrow their feathers in any of the colors currently in game.

Not to mention, if one navigates to the "Companions" list and then to the third tab, the color of the chocobo can be seen as "Yellow Chocobo". Coupled with that interview I read (which I will look around for the source after this post), it seems to imply that we'll be able to make them any hue we'd desire.

Well, from a bit of digging, I can't seem to find the specific interview where Yoshi-P spoke of the dying, but here or a couple of places that mention it as well (just for reference's sake):

What color? Hmmm...



Dis one!

I probably wont be able to color my chocobo due to its absurd requirements.

If gardening, af coloring and swimsuits are to be taken into consideration, then I expect the dyes will be hard to get/find. It may also require a master class crafter. Probably a lv 10 chocobo.

It may also require an FC to make a "dye salon" and place it in their property :/

With the thought that you probably only dye the tips of the chocobo feathers (even though he have a black chocobo chick that states in it's lore it was dyed..) probably look more for some colors that go well with the yellow. Odds are if i can dye it white i will :P cheap man's version to the recruit a friend hehe

Though this is if.. I can afford to do whatever crazy requirements are needed..
