What did you use to go from currant to soot black? Curious to see if it was close to the same fruits that I used.

Exactly 2 Pears, got the proc on the second one.

Once I get to Blood red, how do I make sure I go in dalamund red and not regal purple?

I went blood red to dalamund red last night.

Fed fruitx9 but no messages
Then fed berry x1 got message

Ended up at dalamund red

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.

I went from Desert Yellow to Royal Blue with 25 feather messages from berries.
How would I proceed towards Soot Black from here?

If any of the color gurus please give me some advice I'd be very grateful.

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

All fruits technically count.

Got my Chocobo to Charcoal Grey from Regal Purple with 1 Mamook Pear so what should I feed it now to get it to Soot Black?

[sr7olsniper]

I would try this for my initial feeding:

x12 O'Ghomoro Berry
x6 Mamook Pear
x6 Xelphatol Apple

At the very least, this will put you much closer to your goal, then we can decide what to feed him to direct this new color toward your desired color of Soot Black.

Ok so I feed those 3 items like you said and got the new plumage message every time, Time to wait 6 hrs and see. I will post back to see what color I get and hopefully you could help me out again and point me in the right direction, really confused with the whole color theory at this point since everyone pretty much has their on idea on it.
