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

[Sento-Frost]

Please explain.
Because my bird actually skipped several colors by following the repeated proc, process.
snip.

Yes the proc message count, the first one. It means you fed your chocobo enough to change its color. Next proc message just mean it'll still change from current color. It does not necessarily mean the feeding forced another change of color. It can but it's not a given.

Let's say you feed Apples :
1/ 2/ no proc
3/ 4/ 5/ proc

3 made your chocobo pass the treshold to change color.
But 1 and 2 contributed to that.
4 and 5 had a proc because 3 made it change already. Maybe they made you skip another color, maybe not : info has no value

So, it's not use to count proc messages if you don't stop feeding and wait each time you get one. A valid data gathering would be :
- fed 5 apples until proc
- waited 6 hours got color X
- fed X apples until proc
- waited 6 hours and got color Y

But noone would be that patient ^^

I must say that I'm glad I got my soot black chocobo before 99% of the population trying for it. Makes it that much more special to me lol

I'm at Ink Blue and aiming for Soot Black. Any suggestions?

So i ended up following someone else way of getting soot black by changing it color back. So i did 10 apples,10 pears 20 berries they got blood red. I ended up getting Slate Grey no where near there color lmao.


So my question now is what should i do to get from Slate Grey too Soot Black?

OK i am at midnight blue atm, and from the picture there are 3 lines to Kobold brown, however my end goal is Soot Black. Does that mean I need To feed Apples, Pears and Berries until I get 1 message form each to get to Kobold brown and then 1 plum to Soot Black?

I have not seen anyone post this color yet.

Woad Blue

Turquoise Green -> fed 1 apple with message
Cactuar Green -> fed berries until message to get back to turquoise then fed pears with no message so I feed him more berries until I got another message.

I keep going back to Cactuar green when feeding deepening fruits while in Turquoise.

Well I went back to torquoise which leads me to believe only the first feather message counts.

Turquoise Green -> Fed berries until feathers message.

Let's see where we go from here. Seems to loop Cactuar and Torquoise a lot.

Celeste Green! I was shooting for turquoise to be honest, but this is great too.
10 berries, 4 pears, 10 plums. I fed them in two different batches though.

10 plums, 2 pears and 4 berries one at a time.
Then 1 hour after I fed 6 more berries and 2 pears.


It matches my hair, yesssssssss. What I wanted.

THANK YOU!!!!

Following my rule set, you'll need 4 feather procs of reds and 1 proc of blue.

He ended up with millioncorn yellow for some reason. any reason why? was there not enough fruit procs maybe? also, where should he go from here to get either dalamud red or midnight blue? dalamud red would probably be easier to obtain im guessing.
