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

Storm Blue
30R 58G 107B

Soot Black
37R 35G 30B

Now there may be a more "efficient" way to get down to these values, but this is kind of a "off the top of my head" here. Try something like this:

x1 O'ghomoro Berry
x6 Mamook Pear
x9 Xelphatol Apple

What I'm banking on, is this will get you into the ballpark of Soot Black. Then, when you're closer, we can make small mofifications from what color you land on to the eventually preferred color.

following that amount of fruit landed my bird on royal blue which is only two steps down from storm blue. maybe that will be some help for the calculations you are working on.

Never fear, I did roughly the same thing, just in a different order, and also got Cork Brown.

Yeah, it was a little disappointing but I have plenty of snacks left! So I fed the chocobo again.

Result was Dalamud Red.

With your current values of red, the more berries you will feed him, the more you will slowly move towards purple. Rolanberry Red is a dark magenta.

So adding more blue is good, you should also add a little bit of green to darken the colors.

Result was Dalamud Red.

I've been trying to replicate this so hard. How many berries did you have to feed your chocobo to get 1 plumage proc? I fed mine 18+ and got nothing.

Anyone got Ink Blue? What I can feed to get it?

[Desidious]

Is Apple Green the deepest green you can get? I've fed it's 30+ pears with no message. 1 plum, 3 apples, and 3 berries with no message of feather changing.

ok so with my personal experience, every new fruit after we get a "feathers change" message will result in the same message (because no matter how many fruits you add, the feathers are already going to change from original).

with that, the only precise experiments that we can do is when we only get one message.


I'll welcome any idea on how to make it red dalamud on single messages steps



also, my GF followed this exactly (pineapples until 1 message) and got the exact same result.

Desert yellow => pineapple => honey yellow seems confirmed



nope, my gf got her message in 2 pineapples. Also, pumpkin => sunset has been confirmed with 1 apple message only, sorry but your valfruit got to waste :/

You may want to take a look at the more controlled experiment thread going on over here.

Anyone got Ink Blue? What I can feed to get it?

Mostly blue, with a large amount of red and green that doesnt surpass the amount of blue being fed. It's as close to black as it gets, but with more blue mixed into it.

No. There are definitely darker shades than this. In this thread I've seen turquoise (spelled it correctly, I hope) and moss green.

Mine is apple green now, too. I'd like a darker shade and anything greenish/blueish would be nice. I just don't know which fruit to choose next?
I fed my chocobo 2 Doman Plums to get him on apple green from lime green. Which would you recommend? Plum or Pear?
Thanks in advance!

Abyssal Blue to Rolanberry Red
1 apple feather message, 1 pear feather message

Will edit this post when I figure out what I'm feeding next.

Ok, fed 5 pear, and 4 berries, got feather message on 4 of each.
