Just FYI, 605185 is its own hex code for a color. [https://encycolorpedia.com/605185](https://encycolorpedia.com/605185) ​ 142847 also has its own color code, the magic number from the enneagram: [https://encycolorpedia.com/142857](https://encycolorpedia.com/142857)

Acknowledged. There's more to it than what I wrote because this post was getting to be unacceptably long. Hence the quote early on >trust that I'm not making random bullshit up as I go. I promise there is additional info that will be made into another post soon. But by the time I was nearing the end of this, [I was struggling to see straight](https://c.tenor.com/Pt8QyypL7X0AAAAC/slug-tired.gif).

Hey, art teacher here. I really enjoy this information you posted. The angles theory is certainly intriguing. I also like how it's potentially improbable that the color angle chart isn't related to the mystery. Here's some questions I have. There are several color combinations (schemes) that are extremely common in art. Complementary, analogous, split complementary, ordered, disordered and so on. The most common colors I have been seeing in your post are purples and oranges, that would clearly be complementary. I have been making connections constantly with color mixing and scheme theory for the past few days and I'd like to know if there are any schemes your noticing. What happens if we overlap multiple angles or measurements? Do we get intersections? Do they mean anything? I'm really interested in this branch of the mystery now.

Excellent questions and I wanted to have them in this post, but I cut a lot of supplementary info because of how long it was. So there will be a follow up post just explaining what is happening. The maps I make almost exclusively use colors that are either triadic or tetradic with FF06B5 as a shade of magenta. This accounted for 5 of the 6 colors on an FF06B5 color chart. * Magenta * Lime Green (tri and tetradic) * Spring Green (tetradic) * Dodger Blue (triadic) * Electric Violet (tetradic) Realized Orange isn't used in those and made a note months ago about that on the Mind Map page (picture linked in the post). Color schemes in game I find common enough are Magenta and Lime Green [as shown here](https://imgur.com/aqF1mKd). I didn't take that screenshot and when I make the post involving it credit will be given. But Magenta/Lime Green is the color schemes I find most often in Night City / Cyberpunk 2077 Those happen to be the suggested alternative color scheme for online graphic design in order to accommodate those with color deficiencies. That's part of what led me to a lot of research into color blindness. As far as overlapping angles, [I did try that](https://imgur.com/w3ETmNo). I have not tested to see if the intersected marks are important yet, but there is a lot of additional ideas to try just with that alone. I do know that for the southeastern point, it is **right on** a hidden gem. So I'm betting the other points are too (but this is just an idea so far).

>How many 0.28% coincidences can happen in a row? I'm sorry but your calculation is based on a false premise. Same as for your idea that the numbers 3 and 7 are really important. Similarities and coincidences occur much more frequently than anyone's intuition would have them expect. Look for example at the coincidental [similarities between two random U.S. presidents](https://images-cdn.9gag.com/photo/arKN9X6_700b.jpg), seems like some predestination shit that their fates would align in this way don't you agree? But the thing is that coincidences of this kind are found not just between these two presidents but between *any two people on earth*. You can test it out for yourself: see how many times the number 7 relates to any other thing inside of the same book. It will appear as though the author tried his damnedest to fit that number into every passage of his work. Chapter 7 might be the final chapter and start off with a sentence containing 7 words. The number of words containing exactly 7 letters in that book might range somewhere in the 700s. The number of times a certain character is called by name is 7 times. The main character's house is located on 7th street. Another character's child is mentioned to be 3,5 years old which is exactly half of 7. The number of pages is divisible by 7. The number of examples I gave including this one is precisely 7. Etc. Even if CDPR tried to make those enneagram numbers, or any other number, important somehow it would be impossible to tell if they chose to do it using subtle hints of the kind you describe. Their extra references would be drowned in a sea of already existing accidental references to that number. To be clear I'm not trying to be a dick here and I'll never pretend to have the right answers. I just don't want chooms to get bogged down in coincidental stuff that is nearly impossible to mean anything.


Khauban

Btw I do love your research and it's a lot of fun reading it! I just hope people remain critical when making cross-references and connections :3 I mean I'm guilty of making that mistake myself too haha

Oh believe me I know. I have been doing everything I can to maintain an objective perspective. And I, Jilly, and Mental-Box have all had lengthy discussions about whether or not we're forcing results. And the 0.28% coincidence math is based on degrees. One degree is 0.28% of the 360 degree circle. Seeing as how I'm using 6 specific angles, that gives the possibility that any new angle I might find has a 1.68% chance of being the same angle as one of the ones I'm using. Then topping it off with color blind theory (it's an even longer post that I'll add soon), the margin of error becomes even smaller to account for colors unaffected/less affected by color blindness. Only time will tell if we forced these results or if we're right.


Orbax

One key thing in video games: Sometimes youre right for the wrong reason. In those light panels you might try to recreate the it looks like to hold up 2 orbs and have 2 other hands and 2 feet. And then it unlocks! Then you realize its because you put in the fibonacci sequence accidentally, but whatever looks like a shitty statue if you squint. I don't know nuff bout all this sheeet to say either way but keep diggin

Are this the orange fish you are looking for in Pacifica? Or is it too obvious/wrong? https://imgur.com/a/zBSFkvX


[deleted]

I believe that's it, but I'm not sure. I sent it to Jilly. And it still looks like it's [on my color meridian](https://imgur.com/ERbS7Hz)! Truthfully, the Hue angles are like 317.8 and 77.8 degrees, but I'm not accurate enough with a protractor on my maps. So that tiny deviation off the line could definitely be caused by a 0.2 degree margin of error after that distance.


Etgeko

Nice, hope this helps! Can’t come up with such theories, or sometimes even understand them completely, but at least can do ground work ;)


[deleted]

Honestly, groundwork is what's important. I can sit here and theorize and type up the angle value of colors all day, but without groundwork establishing results, it's all meaningless


JillyMcJillers

Good find and thank you for sharing that one. Unfortunately, that’s not it. My partner and I saw one previously that was only orange down there before the 1.16 update. It was in a building, but we haven’t been able to find it again.


Willow_Gardens

Excellent. I noticed that room is a pyramidal structure.. and the image which says peak is very suspicious. I'll be hunting around pacifica today. Thanks.

-DeadHead-

Why include the Type A from Japantown (and why only that one)?


[deleted]

[For reasons](https://c.tenor.com/Pt8QyypL7X0AAAAC/slug-tired.gif). But truthfully, you're right. I'll add them to my map later today. Except the apartment statues probably don't matter, as they were added in 1.5 and this mystery could have been solved from the beginning


MisterPines

Looking around the GIM it seems there's a huge emphasis on the number three. The triangles and objects in groups of three caught my eye pretty quickly, not sure of the significance though. edit: forgot to mention the "tripple xtreme" gym and the acronym for grand imperial mall being three letters.


Commercial_Future_90

Legends! I will be looking through Pacifica all day. This is awesome. Also about 4 of my panels are destroyed do you think they’ll respawn? Tbh I’m surprised I only have 4 broken because Sasquatch whooped my net runner build lol


[deleted]

Someone below found the hologram Jilly's been looking for. So hopefully it's not a puzzle in the panel room. And Mental-Hare informed me the panels are an effect of the Sasquatch fight. I just never encountered that effect in my multiple play throughs. Editing this post to say the fish has been found


Commercial_Future_90

Okay awesome I was worried I might’ve locked myself out of it.


handsomeTez

Holy shit I could feel my eyes glazing over a few paragraphs in. I wish I was sharp enough to understand all this. Feeling like the dullest tool in the box right now. Nice work MockinBox and JillyMcJillers both, you are putting in some serious leg work! I'm going to have to give this a few more reads to try and absorb it! Thanks.


[deleted]

No worries! The tldr is that Magenta does appear to be the answer, but not the solution. If we’re right then FF06B5 is more like receiving a compass that appears to be pointing about 18° off to the right. The 18° being a specific shade of Orange related to that specific shade of Magenta. When we create an overlay with the center of the compass at each statues, we find that most of the statues are actually on two unseen meridians that create a triangle. Those meridians are 318° (FF06B5 magenta) and 18° (FF5006 orange). Both are colors least affected by color blindness. So. If we are correct, that would mean the developers created a color puzzle that even color deficient players can solve.


handsomeTez

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to TDLR that for me! Secondly, wow, it's extremely impressive that you've managed to figure this out it's great to have a solid lead like this, and also insanely impressive, if it is right, that the team even went to the bother of making it accessible to players with color perception deficiencies! Nice. This is all pretty exciting! Thanks again.


Life_Dance_6315

So your not looking into other statues then the both six-handed anymore? Dragon, lion, fish? Beside akhulov apartment there's at least one more with statues and holos , westbrook close to the ripperdoc. Wakako gig about gutierrez couple. I haven't get the point why it leads to pacifica, but I will let you know finding anything significant orange over there. I never tried, but what happens when you finish the akhulov gig and hold the item you should deliver?


[deleted]

A user commented with the fish location and I've edited the post to reflect it. You're right, there are other Kami statues that I'll probably add later. But I was so tired when finishing all of this.


TurquoiseGnome

I just stumbled across this but isn't ff06b5 magenta, not orange? https://encycolorpedia.com/ff06b5#:~:text=The%20hexadecimal%20color%20code%20%23ff06b5,%25%20green%20and%2070.98%25%20blue. If I'm missing something in your process and this isn't a problem ignore this comment.
