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

[KaiKatzchen]

Took the confirmed Ink Blue image and his 'black' chocobo into Photoshop and compared them, both images (of course thee will be some difference because of type of picture, light etc...) fall within a dark blue on the RGB hex coding scale, not a black.

I'm pretty certain it is a Ink Blue, not a true "Black", unless he can put up a shot saying that it is black from the companion menu I'm going with Ink Blue.

And I want to note, I'm not saying this to be rude, mean or doubtful. Everyone is trying to get a color that they really want, and if people believe there is a black because if his post, and it turns out to be false information, people might be wasting time, gil and food trying to achieve the impossible due to a false advertisement.

If it is a true black he would have no issues showing us a screenshot of the companion menu, doesn't even have to say HOW he got it, just show it is black.

Reddit thread claims that 1 berry from blood red makes dalamund.
So try feeding berries until you get a new plume message, should get you dalamund.

I've got Dalamud Red from Blood Red. I gave my Choco 5 O'Ghomoro Berries and had 3x the feather message.

I hope you guys realize that black will always have blue in it.

Of course black will always have blue in it. That's color 101.

But there are different types of black.
In this game, soot black is closer to a true black, or even a warmer black, as opposed to a cool black.

He was quick to follow up with additional pictures but not the companion UI and now he's gone quiet. I want it to be true so we can finally get a confirmation that this color is attainable, but I'm having my doubts on this one. Hopefully I'm wrong.
