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

[MaraMind]

can someone held me? i tried so much to get soot black but it doesnt work..
im at gloom purple and i want soot black.

[Isaza]

So i was expetimenting with the calculator as suggested to me and now i got a new color i can'T find on the tables

it's called Anthracite(google translate)

just wondering what to do now

Okay this is odd... I tried going for soot black from a single pineapple feed, but it took 2 feedings to get a message. Removed bird from stables to cancel, then replaced. Feed again and got same results, removed to cancel again.

Then I ran around a while with the Ink Blue bird to get a feel of the color. Then I went back to my FC house, re-stabbled him, and now it takes THREE pineapples to get the same message (in all 3 instances the stables were fully clean & sparkling) feeding took place in the evening.

So there may be a time of day or other factor that comes into play to determine procs?



Tried again a bit later and it went back to only needing 2 feedings.... W T F

Would someone be able to tell me how to get to Soot Black from Acorn Brown?

I've went from Blood Red to Dalamud Red after feeding of berries. My goal is Mesa red. How can I get from Dalamud Red to Mesa Red? The chart seems to say not more berries, so pears I guess?

Okay so unless there's been some new revelation in how this works, going by the number of messages and using that calculator, I'm trying to get slate grey on my second chocobo. Just fed all the fruits, another 5hr 40 mins hopefully it will be the colour I want

I did the valfruit first, and then the pineapple like an hour or two later after I saw his post.

I fed 2x valfruit, and then 2x pineapple. I got the feather messaging on everything from the second valfruit to the last pineapple.
