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

[Karuson]

Aiming for Snow White.. Followed the advice of a previous poster and did:
15 Doman Plum
6 Cieldalaes Pineapple
12 Valfruit

I made sure to note the number of times I got the "new feathers" message on each step however.
11/15 Doman Plum
6/6 Cieldalaes Pineapple
12/12 Valfruit

I gave my Bo 1 of the plums until I had gone through 15 plums, then 6 pineapples one at a time, then 12 valfruit one at a time. I'll update in 5 hours 30 minutes as to what I get.. XD

This is the process I used to achieve Snow White:

Great explanation (and grats on that cute chocobo!). I hope everybody will follow your template, it's clear and comprehensive.

This is the process I used to achieve Snow White:

Feed #1 - Honey Yellow

• Cieldalaes Pineapple x3

Result = Honey Yellow

* It took 3 Pineapples before the "Grows New Feathers" message appeared.

Feed #2 - Cream Yellow

• Doman Plum x4

Result = Cream Yellow

* The feathers message either triggered at 3 or 4 Plums. I didn't write this "Feather" trigger down so unfortunately I don't exactly which but I'm 98.5% sure it was at 4.


Feed # 3 - Snow White

• Doman Plum x7
• Valfruit x10

Result = Snow White

* Fed 1 Doman Plum and got no "Feathers" message. Switched to feeding 10 Valfruit (each had the "Feathers" message) and then the remaining 6 Doman Plums (each plum triggered the "Feathers" message).


Total Fruits Used

3 Cieldalaes Pineapple, 11 Doman Plum, 10 Valefruit


*Note: Stable quality was "Poor" for all feedings.

So it was just a single message on your second feeding? So you actual result was:

x1 Cieldalaes Pineapple Message -> x1 Doman Plum Message -> x10 Valfruit Message -> x6 Doman Plum Message

Counting only the "Feathers Growing" messages I received yes you are correct. I do have to wonder in Feed #3 if I had started with Valfruit if I would have ended up with x7 Plum "Feather" messages for that round.

I'm gonna guess the messages completely based on RNG at this point.

Someone should confirm her transformation into Snow White using her number of "growing new feathers" messages.

It's my thought that this message is triggered each time a player slides into a Dye colour. I think if you don't see a message it might not necessarily be that your colour isn't shifting but that you're not shifting enough to hit one of the SE Dye colours.

I tried this and got the following results:

1x Pineapple message (1/3 worked - third succeeded) + x1 Plum message (1/1).
>> Six hour rest. <<
Result was Cream Yellow.
x10 Valfruit message (10/12 - first two no message) + Six Plum (6/6)
>> Six hour rest. <<
Result was Rose Pink.

I followed the guide two people had used for Snow White and didn't get it. So we're seeing a mitiating variable here. Either the timing of rest is pivotal or it's randomness thrown in to frustrate us. Could be that they cap in some way per rest but I just don't know. Any idea what I need for Snow White at this stage?

[Applesnap]

1x Pineapple message (1/3 worked - third succeeded) + x1 Plum message (1/1).
= Cream Yellow.

x10 Valfruit message (10/12 - first two no message) + Six Plum (6/6).
= Rose Pink.

x3 Plum message (3/3) + x3 Pineapple message (3/3).
@ 3hrs 38 minutes until he would be ready
x2 Plum message (2/2).
= Snow White!!!

I'm so happy with Rhongo's plumage (and he's rid of the gender confusion of Rose Pink).

I wonder if that's the purest white you can get, if so I'm aiming for that one but wish we could get a more brigther white.

I think it is. I'd love to have a brighter white too. :/
