can someone give a suggestion to what I should feed to get it closer to soot black from gloom purple?

I wouldn't swear to this as a good guide, but it may help you to take you in the general direction in which you want to go.

While Gloom purple is lacking from the charts, to me it looks like Gloom purple is close/between Regal Purple/Abysseal blue. At this point I think just darkening the colors is what you want to do, so maybe try adding more berries, to make it darker. If you do get Abysseal or Ink blue, I think that will put you in the right direction. I'm not the best person to ask, but just a suggestion. In my experience - and failure of 12 attempts to get to black, pulling out color, or trying to cancel a blue, or purple, just resulted in going backwards as far as light/dark went.

Feed it more red and blue deepeners I think.

Thanks guys for the suggestions.

First, you need to lower them all across the board, so you may wanna do a couple of sets of all three deepeners, making sure you get the six procs. Blue would still be up so I would then do a couple of pear and apple sets.

yuo can do it all together too, but might overdo blue, so maybe darken across the board first and adjust blue later.

Any idea why my earlier feed of 2 apples and 2 pears brought me from royal blue (34 42 96) to gloom purple (74 62 89) when the red and green should have neutralized each other. No way 2 feeds can bring it up 40 points. SOmething seems to be off with the formula..

I'd like to know this aswell, anyways Joanna, i fed mine 6 Apples 6 Pears and 8 Berries this time. Here's hoping. Since i really have trouble understanding all this coloring act.
Will post results in 6 hours.

I think I'll do something similar to yours. Good luck to us both

I got gloom purple like Joanna. Following the steps.

Gave up on black now am trying for white. Can someone please advise me?
I gave it a lemon:
Desert yellow I fed 13 plums, got 9 color changing messages.
Celeste Green was the result. Gave 1 apple. We'll see what happens.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I'm losing my mind here!

You gave your chicken WAY too many plums. Should've just given it enough to get 2 'beginning to grow new feathers!' messages. Check out my sheet, maybe you can make an educated guess how to get back to Snow White.
I think going with apples is a good decision since it makes Apple Green go back to Lime Green. Should be easier from there.
Whatever you do, if you get Lime Green do not give it plums. That will only get you back to Apple Green.

I did an entire recipe at once for snow white, it stayed desert yellow :P

Even though I've seen people on Ragnarok with Snow white after day 2 of dyeable chocobos out, which you can't do if you wait 6 hours between each single fruit.

Can someone help with getting to Soot Black from Loam Brown? I think I'm finally close.
