Chocobo dyeing R&D Thread - Post your results here!

[Chek]

So, I'm stuck at slate grey ("stuck" is used loosely since I like the color), but want to go for charcoal grey or soot black. Anyone have any advice what to do from here?

I tried 1/1/1 lightening fruit to try to drop all of the colors down together a bit more, but somehow ended up at lilac purple. Thankfully it only took one feeding to get BACK to slate grey from there.

Okay so finally got started and it didn't go my way. I haven't exactly recorded my results, but I'm currently at Opo-Opo Brown, just fed 3 Apples (each producing a feathers message) and I'm trying to get to Some shade of darker green. Am I going the right direction or have I totally messed up?

im not sure why... but last night i fed my chocobo 50 times in a row. and all 50 times it said the new plume message lol gonna see what color it is when i get home. :P

Where can i find the latest/most accurate dying guides for the colours? Is there a best resource?

[lvicious]

Well I reset my choc to it's original color.. lemons are cheap now. It was easier to accomplish my goal of Sunset from there with 24 Apples in one feeding and only the first msg did not provide a feather changing. I just went off what others have posted 22-25 apples and got it first try. I am officially done for now.

You need to up the blue by quite a bit.

You're currently at RGB 182 182 131

Need to get to RGB 173 192 202

You should feed Valfruits and Plums evenly to bring the blue up while maintaining the red and green equal as they are and then one more valfruit. At least 4 or 5 plums to an equal amount of valfruit+1 to do one up red and one down green. You can do it all together or review after the first feed to adjust the last valfruit.

Thanks alot for taking the time to help me! But I'm kind of confused. I've been told that if I feed fruits and don't see the change color messege it actually doesn't count as if I didn't feed it anything. Is that right? you told me about feeding a number of fruits regardless of the messeges, then feeding-without-a-messege does affects color?

Any fruits you feed are shifting you around the RGB spectrum behind the scenes so they technically all count. When you receive a "Feather's Changing" message it's because you've successfully fed enough fruits to push you from one Dye range into the next.

Not without message, unless each shows the feathers are changing message, they didn't count.
