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

[Bevral]

Trying to get my Bird to Soot Black as well for kicks. Currently at Abyssal Blue trying to figure out how to get that blue number down to get it closer to the Soot Black range. Atleast into the loop of kobold browns and ink blues alot of people are in. Anyone have any advice to get the blue channel significantly lowered while trying to keep red and green somewhat in the same range?

Hey, my chocobo is currently at Dalamud Red. I was wondering what would be the best amount of food to feed to get it into the inkblue/Deepwood green/Kobald Brown/ Soot black range. My final desired color is Soot Black btw. Thanks.

This is based on testing the revised RGB posted by "AttacKat": http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post2383813

Current Colour: Deepwood Green
31R 47G 39B

Soot Black:
47R 47G 39B

You could try:

x2 Valfruit
x1 Pineapple

This should put your end values roughly around 51R 47G 39B (assuming +/- 5 average integer) which is right around the revised RGB for Soot Black (might still need a bit more tweaking); RNG is still a factor so mileage may vary.

So far I have fed 3 Valfruit and 3 pineaples and I got the grow new feather message... Hopefully this changes anything... Maybe feed an apple just incase?

Lotus Pink discovered after somewhat me wanting Snow White....



Step 1: 15 berries, 6 pineapples, 12 valfruit
Wait the 6 hours
Step 2: Give 1 Berry

I dont know but I got that.... I dont like it....

i think +8/-8 might be the scale. your 2 pineapple 1 valfruit 1 plum theory yielded kobold brown. and ill try the plum again. see if maybe rnjesus gives me soot black

updated color scale from new thread. this makes alot of peoples color combinations make sense if this is accurate

Yeah, I just found this earlier and have been re-attempting my old equations with the new RGB values. I haven't tried using the +8/-8 yet though, tried a couple with +5/-5, but I'm going to switch over now and try it out. Oddly enough, I noticed both Kobold Brown and Soot Black are exactly 8(R) / 8(G) / 8(B) apart from each other with the new RGB values presented.

Starting Color: Desert Yellow
O'Ghomoro Berries x15
Valfruit x8
End Color: Plum Purple

Starting Color: Plum Purple
Doman Plums x4
Cieldalaes Pineapples x3
Valfruits x2
End Color: Colibri Pink

Does anyone know how to get from Colibri Pink to Iris Purple?

Any advice for someone who's trying to get from Royal Blue [34][42][96] to Grape [52][36][54]? =)

royal + apple =abyssal
abyssal + apple = rolanberry
rolanberry + pear = grape


I dont think people are reading the forums and reading the data people have posted. Because people have posted the data to most of the questions being asked.

So after fiddling around Kobold browns, deepwood greens and ink blues, I finally got soot black! ^^

I fed 2 pineapples from ink blue to get soot black, but I think the results may vary, since when it was Kobold brown the first time round I fed it only 1 plum, but it turned into Deepwood green, instead of soot black like it was speculated to. (Ended up I did alot of tinkering around with the darker colors to trial and error)

How many "beginning to grow new feathers" did you get from those x2 Pineapples? Both messages popped for both Pineapples? Or it ONLY popped on the second Pineapple? Also, has anyone attempted x2 Doman Plums on Kobold Brown yet? Maybe work the same way if you factor in the +5/-5 mathematical theory with the older RGB values.

If we assume the exact color values of our chocobo don't get rounded by the game, I did Kobold Brown +1 plum message -> Ink Blue +1 plum message -> Deepwood green, so it's technically 2 from Kobold Brown. It took 6 plums to get one message at the second feeding.

What I really want is a lotus pink chocobo.
I managed to get it to snow white, should I try feeding it a berry or a valfruit? D:
