Sorry but when we shell out nearly 10k for 1 dye, surely it should look BLACK, not dark GREY!!

Wouldnt it be nice if ya armour looked midnight black instead of a cr4ppy charcoaly grey.

It depends on the armor.

On some armor it's Black, on some armor it's grey. Deal.

For 10k I can think of a better color other than Black.

lime green anyone?

On topic, people buy black dye bcs it goes with everything and it looks 'cool'. Also, it never drops! So, the rarity factor comes into play.

Agreed, black should be black. And btw, black does drop, it's just rare. (Pre-searing dye-farming is probably the easiest way to find black, btw. I've got 4 or 5 on a pre- char I made a month ago.)

I hear Three Blacks and an Orange make a magic flying pony that shoots laser beams from its eyes.

I have 15k canthan armor on my Ranger that is normally a tan color. Silver dye makes it a beautiful white, but black dye makes it charcoal grey. I wasted 40k on black dye to try it out on the armor, then decided it looked like crap and went back to silver dye.

Black on 1.5 Kurzick Necro = dark grey
Black on the Desert Collector = grey

I think the main problem is that often people don't realise which armours take the dye well and which don't. Black dye means research people! There are lots of pages out there showing dye on the different armour for the characters.

I sympathise with the OP though. I got a black dye drop in pre sear with my first chara and - not knowing it was rare - dyed her ascalon top. I still have it.

I think we should have a special 'rage page' in the forums for people to vent their frustrations in!

My female rit 15k imperial is dyed:

Black+black+silver+silver

which equals

grey with a purpleish tint.

I tried to use a black dye on my 15k warrior luxon armor... it came out purple.


I agree, if I use a black dye, I want to see my armor turn black.
