Chocobo Dye Experimentation

Stage 1 Ice Blue > Iris Purple

Now I am going to push on with only feeding one fruit and stopping at the first proc message to see where I end up.

Using Valfruit I have fed 6 Valfruit total with the new feathers message on the last (1/6)

Predictions to where one Valfruit feed will lead from Ice Blue?

Edit - 6 hours later and the 6 Val fruits stopping on the 6th with the first feathers message has resulted in Iris Purple.

Stage 2 Iris Purple > Colibri Pink

[14:51]Apollo devours the valfruit.
[14:51]Apollo's plumage will change in 6 hours.
[14:51]Apollo is beginning to grow new feathers!

1/1 Valfruit feed

Resulted in Colibri Pink! Which is one I really like... unsure whether to keep going now I have something I like!

Geh. Just thought about it. Since there is a high red color that means my results after Blood Red may be skewed since i fed 40+ apples in an attempt to hit the next red tier, gave up, and then started the Berries.

Current Color: Royal blue (34/42/96)

I'm trying to get soot black. So far I've been feeding a lot of berries and some pears/apples and got royal blue.

I fed 25 berries, 7 pears and 7 apples now but still didn't get a message that the feathers will change. Is this because the R/G values can't decrease any further? Or am I missing something?

I'm thinking about feeding pineapples to decrease blue and increasing red/green to get them around the same level and then decrease all three values equally.

So far this is the exact process my chocobo is going through with only Mamook pear single steps. In 6 hours, I will know if I get Apple Green or not, then onto more testing.

So what would be the process to bring from desert yellow to soot black

Well, that's when I would have kept using pears even after going back to Sunset Orange. But that's just me. With AttacKat's info now, mapping apples > pears moved lower on my list of things to do. I want to confirm that high Red color and I still want to find Wine Red. I feel like it may be pears after Dalamud Red or off this high red color w/e it is.

Yea I realize it's not much info, but an example of adding pear to blood red at least. I didn't want to stray too far either. Have some more apples coming in so I may go for that adding of a ridiculous amount of apples to blood red.

just randomly fed all 3 darkening fruits/berries and ended up with pumpkin orange.

Pumpkin Orange > 6 pears with 6 feather messages > Coeurl Yellow.

Coeurl Yellow > 7 doman plums with 5 giving feather message > Apple Green.

We have no definite route to Soot Black yet. In the other thread (that's pure chaos compared to this one), they're basically just feeding all deepening fruits to hit one of the darker colors and then feeding single fruits hoping to land on Black. Some of us on this thread are more organized and are trying to map out a way. But, its' slow going because we're NOT throwing all kinds of random fruits at our chocobos in a single 6 hour period.

I gotcha; it's good to know at least. I just planted 2 Grade3Shroud Apples earlier so I'll probably have enough to try it with the 36 I already have. But if you end up doing it, I'll go try to find Wine Red after my foray into purples and maybe black in a couple days.

I haven't noticed many people from Diabolos posting here, but I'm willing to give out some free Grade 3 Shroud Soils to anyone doing this research. I don't have a huge stockpile, but I try to hit that node every hour I'm online, so I can get some. Tips appreciated but not expected. =)
Message Oliver Beelzie in game or let me know here.

Stipulations: Be reasonable. I'm not going to give you a full stack of 99 soils for free! xD
