Chocobo Dye Help

[Kazza2003]

Help PLS. Currant Purple -> 2x peers -> Deepwood Green -> 1x valefruit 1x pineapple -> Marsh Green -> 1x Berry -> Currant Purple.

I kinda move around all the colors possible but never get Sooth Black. I've tried pretty much every spreadsheet, calculator and what not. Can't get there. Can anyone help me?

This is from using the color simulator from the Chocobo Dye - The Missing Manual thread.

Your color now is - 55 red 47 green and 63 blue
Sooth Black is 47 red 47 green and 39 blue

You're not that far off -8 red good on green and -24 on blue

What you need per the simulator is 4 Mamook pears, 3 Xelphatol Apples &
2 O'Ghomoro berries all fed at the same time" in one 6 hour feeding.

This should make your color values 40 red 42 green & 38 blue falling in the black range.

You might be able to do it with 1 less berry that would put you at 45 red 47 green & 33 blue, but green is dead on then and with the adjustment amount being RNG I wouldn't chance it. I didn't when I did mine.

Ps: This simulator helped me to get to Snow white when I was stuck in a loop. It also helped an FC mate get to Sooth Black when they were in a loop, Hopefully it will work for you

EDIT: I would alternate the fruit something like pear, apple, pear, apple, pear, apple, pear then berry.
So it steadily moves towards black.

I honestly would recommend using the lowest amount of fruit instead of the highest, considering how food can "crit" and skip a step, if it happens you are somewhat protected.

Lowering it to 3 pears, 2 apples and 1 berry would get 45R 47G 43B, 2 red more 4 blue less than soot black, even if the feed 'crits' you'd still get black (unless only the single berry 'crits', then you may end up ink blue).

Though of course I could be wrong here.
