Tried this, and now I am back at Deepwood green. I feel like this is never going to end.

Ok, so after bull-headedly trying to smash my way through the steps to getting the famed "Brown before Black" all in one go from reg yellow and getting some low ranking red I tried to blast through the red line without adding other colors. got 4 messages, stopped, came back and ... we got the milicorn yellow or w/e that's called. :/

Now I'm just gonna few it til one message and stop. Gonna take some days but I don't trust mixing and even though no ones using them I don't wanna blow through the supplies.

Two questions.

1) So we confirmed that "Deepen Red" means increase the R value and decrease the GB values? And "Lighten Red" does the opposite?

2) Does any fruit fed before the "feather proc" count? I've head people only counting after the feather proc, but it seems to me to be more intuitive that all fruit counts, the feather proc only shows up if the fruit you just fed will result in a valid RGB different from the current color of your choco.

Sorry if these have been clarified, this is a big thread.

Any help going soot black from olive green?

To get from olive green to soot black:

berry 7
apple 4
pear 4

Should that be from Dalamud Red or from Regal Purple? He's sitting at Dalamud Red right now.. again.. Thank you in advance for your help!

Yes, that is what you need from dalamud red to rolanberry red.

Been stalking this thread for about a week now and am also on the journey to Soot Black. Tried to follow various people's posts to avoid the Deepwood Green/Ink Blue/Kobold Brown shift but it seems like I fell into it nonetheless, gahhh.

2-3 plums from kobold brown to soot black. from ink blue should have been 2 valfruits and 2 pineapples. Same from deepwood.

Trying to get to ink blue from midnight blue...any tips?

Two pineapples will get you to ink blue.

It's becoming impossible to help with the daily limit to posting/replying.

Started a blog on loadstone to help out without being so constricted. Link in my signature.

Will start answering now for however long it lets me.

@ Zenaku, I think doing the one fruit is perfect to see the result, if not, instead of resetting, break the color loop, get something else entirely but not that far away. Same for the stuck in the deepwood/ink/kobold loop.
