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

I gave mine 10 apples (red) and it's still millioncorn.

[Taban]

So according to current theory what would I need to feed mine to get snow white?

[Hulan]

But if I'm not mistaken, the Berries deepen Blue hues while the Pineapples lighten them.
Wouldn't I negate the effect those 5 Berries would give me with 5 of those Pineapples?

Basically if you look at the RGB value as three numbers like so: [R, G, B], the current theory is that the effects actually work like this:

LIGHTEN BLUE: [=, =, +B]
DEEPEN BLUE : [-R, -G, =]

LIGHTEN RED: [+R, =, =]
DEEPEN RED : [=, -G, -B]

LIGHTEN GREEN: [=, +G, =]
DEEPEN GREEN : [-R, =, -B]

Thus, to bring out blue, you have to use both the Lighten and Deepen fruits.

Is anyone in the process of going in the extreme of one of the RGB directions? I may just dump all my berries in one go since it seems the results so far shown only gives shades of yellow (and brown which is also yellow). The 36+ lightning guy is the only example showing that stacking fruits was either not working or needed more than just 36 (like maybe 100 of ea).

I would be happy with either Sky Blue or Raptor Blue.

This thread almost makes me want to just wait on dying it until we have some more concrete evidence as to how this system really works. I guess I will keep checking the Google doc to see how to attain this, but from what has been posted so far it almost looks like it is a guarantee that multiple feedings of fruit will be needed before anyone even makes it into the blue spectrum.

Thanks for all the theorycrafting and results posting so far guys!

Went against my gut and fed it trying to break out of the yellow/brown color variants right now. Currently @ 2hrs 28min until its done..

Fed (in the following order)

1x Mamook Pear, 5x Xelaphol Aplples, 2x Doman Plums.

10 Valfruit (Lighten Green) + 4 O'Ghomoro Berries (Darken Blue) Used on Bird :: Results in 5h 30m

Will report back later on color.

CROPS:
Valfruit = x18 Yield ;; O'Ghomoro Berries = x18 Yield ;; Doman Plum = x23 Yield

• Planted 8/19 @ 10am CST ;;
• Harvested 8/21 - Ready for Harvest upon login @ 12pm CST, an FC mate harvested their plant 3h prior, so they were ready by this morning (Earlier than 48h Mark) ;;
• Each plant had 24 applications of fertilizer from planting to harvesting.

17 Deepen Blue, 15 Deepen Red, 18 Lighten Green = Regal Purple!

[MikefriedSpes]

I just fed my bird 80 O'Ghomoro Berries. I want results.

[Rorichan]

17 Deepen Blue, 15 Deepen Red, 18 Lighten Green = Regal Purple!

So pretty! Nice!
