You're probably one valfruit away to push the red slightly up and blue a bit if not all you need while lowering the green as well.

I got Deepwood Green again, so I just stuffed my chocobo with 2x pineapple, 2x valfruit, and 1x plum in hopes that I can at least get to another color I haven't already gotten.

My friend has been having a TON of trouble getting feather messages with fruit. He's at royal blue and has used at least 50 fruit trying to darken the color. Sometimes, when the fruit DOES proc, (as in, there's a feathers message) there's no cutscene of his choco when the timer's up. So there's no color change. What's going on here?

A better question is, what color is he aiming at?
He might need to move to the red or green side of the wheel depending on what he's aiming at, assuming his blue is capped (I am assuming this stuff caps eventually).

He's going for soot black I think. But he's trying all the darkening fruits and getting no messages.

THIS! I've fed my chocobo over 100 fruit with no color change procs occurring About 70 of those were attempts at darkening it from the dark blue I already have. Since those attempts, I've been trying to lighten it instead, in the case that maybe I did hit the very bottom of whatever scale this system uses. No luck with the 40+ lightening fruit I used either.

Is there some kind of a cool down perhaps? I haven't had a proc for color change in over a full 24 hours.
