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

[Mini_Me]

I keep seeing people doing math to give answers on how to get from color x to color y. Where are the variable values for the different fruits, so I can do this myself?

[Tatsuo]

Coral Pink to Lotus Pink is very difficult in one sitting, as they are VERY far apart on the RGB, even though they are both "pink".
Coral Pink 207, 111, 95
Lotus Pink 255, 207, 247

I would suggest making a stop at Colibri Pink first.
Plum x19
Valfruit x14
Pineapple x8

Report back in 6 hours on which color you did land and we'll work from there, as you should be only about 30, 30, 30 away from Lotus Pink.

For Mini_Me:

<fruit> R G B

apple +5 -5 -5
plum -5 +5 +5
pear -5 +5 -5
valfruit +5 -5 +5
berry -5 -5 +5
pineapple +5 +5 -5

I'm currently at Gloom Purple. What would I have to feed it to get soot black?

Still stuck in the ink blue, deepwood green and kobold brown i'm currently at kobold brown any help to get to soot black would be great i have tryed 1 pineapple at blue iv tryed 2 pineapples at ink blue same thing at deep wood green with valfruit and now im back at kobold brown.

So back too deepwood green from Chestnut Brown using one berry. That should have not even happen should have been kobold brown or ink blue.

So last time i feed it 3 pineapple and got two growing feather message and got ink blue. My question is you think i should feed it 1 pineapple and see what happens?

Tough luck on that last loop!

Right now, 2 pineapples should do it, but already proven you didn't get it, so probably your values are on the edges and too high for simple approximation (green value too high). I'm calculating a minimum variance now to get soot black:

pineapple 2
apple 1
berry 1

Current 41 39 37
To Target 6 8 2

Target color RGB 47 47 39
A third pineapple lands you closer still (but at higher green value):

Current 46 44 32
To Target 1 3 7

try 7 pear 7 berry 2 plum | Feeding order : 1 pear -> 1 berry then repeat until both of them empty then 2 plum
There's a chance you'll get one of the dark shade color.if you get the result you need,please post the picture,thank you.

Thanks for your advice, my chocobo became Midnight Blue and I think it is so close to Soot Black. I need you again please, how can I change from Midnight Blue to Soot Black?

I'm currently at Gloom Purple. What would I have to feed it to get soot black?

Gloom Purple: 79, 71, 103
Soot Black: 47, 47, 39

Pear x10 -> 29, 121, 53
Apple x9 -> 74, 76, 8
Berry x6 -> 44, 46, 38

Difference to Soot Black -> 3, 1, 1

I made the mistake of feeding it valfruit but it's pineapple at deepwood green also. I went back to deepwood green fed it 3 pineapple got two growing message ended up different color. Some people feed it one and got soot black some with 2 and i even heard some with 3. Some even got soot black with valfruit so i don't even know anymore.

I'm trying one right now and see what happen the rng is so werid for black that i may be stuck at this loop forever at this point ; ;

One plum should do it, landing you:
Current 50 44 36
To Target -3 3 3

That's very, very close, closer than many others had and still got it. Let us know, good luck!

Did you try 1 single plum (which should do a feather proc) yet?
That should land you on black.

Edit. I remember that I was on Kobold Brown too, and 1 plum brought me into some shade of purple I think. I hit Soot Black from there.
