Back to deepwood green i try valfruit 1 pineapple 1 and valfruit 2 with pineapple 2. I have no idea what else to try this is getting to the point that i may never end this loop

Going to try valfruit x2 and pineapple x1 report back and see if this can help other also stuck in the loop with me.

I am stuck in this loop with you. I am back to Deepwood myself. I fed one valfruit and got a feather proc, so I am staying with just one for this time. Let me know how yours ends up.

At this point we going to get feather proc no matter what we feed i bet. I got one on my first valfruit also but i know for sure if i leave it there i get ink blue. I hoping the one pineapple is what give me that soot black if anything i just have to keep trying and maybe on day get soot black ;(

What's the easiest way to go from Sky Blue to Turquoise Green?

Please, someone help me out.

Where do I go from if I have a Midnight Blue-chocobo and want a Soot Black? =/

I need some help reaching soot black, I've been using the colour calculator but I've been in a loop of deepwood green, kobold/chestnut brown for days. I managed to break out of that and got marsh green but now after feeding it what I should have to get me soot black it's currant purple!
What should I do? I'm at my wits end.

Finally made it to Soot Black!



They grow up so fast...




Anyway, because I know people tend to get stuck in the Deepwood/Ink/Kobold loop, I suggest this:

If you go through those colors and end up at Kobold Brown, try giving your Chocobo 2x Plums. There are some who can get to Soot Black with one but I've noticed those stuck in the loop just continue the cycle that way. The first plum might not bring up a proc but as long as the second one does you should be good (that's how it worked for me at least)

Hope that helps and best of luck everyone!

So many pages to weed through! Every chart or document I have found didn't say how to get to Mesa Red. Anyone have any ideas? Starting from Desert Yellow. Thanks.

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.
