I have a couple inks whose colors I love but that don't work great, even on decent (Staples Arc system) to very good (Rhodia) paper. My biggest problem is feathering. We use cheap Staples pads at work, and even Pelikan 4001 Black feathers a little on those. The Sustainable Earth pads are less of a problem than the regular white Staples pads.
So what are your favorite inks, considering behavior (not color)?
The following work well for me, regardless of the pen, and to a lesser degree, paper:
Pelikan 4001 Black and 4001 Blue-black
Parker Quink Blue-black
Diamine Claret
Pilot Iroshizuku Shin-ryoku
I have several other inks that work perfectly well on Rhodia, but Rhodia isn't always an option.
