So I got back to midnight blue from grape purple, and now I'm going to try 2 pineapples again to get to Ink Blue like suggested. I got a feather proc message on both pineapples, so I'll let you guys know in 6 hours what happens! (Though I'm assuming it will go back to grape purple, as that is the loop I'm stuck in!)

Sooo, this took me to rolanberry red. Totally at a loss at this point! I've been trying for ink blue for so long, and while I have gotten close, I don't know what I'm doing wrong! Totally frustrating!

I have seen tons of posts on how to get to Hunter green. Get to apple green and add berries. Well once I got to apple green (two plume changing feedings of pears) I did one plume changing feeding of berries. It skipped over all shades of green that people said they passed to get to hunter and put me straight at turquoise green. Do I use lightening fruit now to get to hunter or keep feeding berries?

Fed 3 berries, 2 pears, and 2 apples to get back to Midnight Blue. I feel like I've tried so many combinations of fruits from Midnight Blue and still haven't gotten Ink Blue.

Midnight blue is a lighter shade of blue than ink blue. Midnight blue also has balanced levels of green & blue, while ink blue has a slightly elevated green value (midway between red & blue). And since you've been switching between rolanberry red & blue, your red is probably a little high too.

My suggestion is to feed it 1 apple and 2 pears to slightly drop red, slightly increase green and drop your blue values down by a bit. This should hopefully get you in (or close to) the ink blue range.
