How do you mix silver with blue dye now as I seem I can't?My silver isn't worth as much as it use to be.

If they are going to change the dyes, we should all get trader sale value so we can upgrade to the new ones. I have stacks of every color in my inventory. This is rediculous.

Uhh anyone elses old monk FoW options looks like windows 95 in 16 colors?
alot of people are displeased with thier monk fow being oddly dyed, uhh my monk top ever since the update, changed shades, so have other monk FoW, walk around and you may see pants or tops just a diffent shade and you PM them about it and they reply "the update screwed with my armor".
In my friends case... his whole set, and even his other sets have changed to differnt horrible colors....
I figured "oh well I guess they messed with the color coding" and searched for a new color... but... all these horrible colors I keep previewing, they are not rich in color, and uhh resemble Win95 16colors... we cant re-make our old colors since uhh they made Green dye = a shade of purple, use to be RED...(which was my friends color)...
again this is for pre-shards pre-obsidian named Fissure armor...
my shard-required fissure monk fow kept its color yet cant re-create it.
I ask of you anet/ncsoft/guildwars staff please do something about this... I really dont want to re-make my fow armor just for a much better looking color selection, and neither do the rest of us who have our veterancy armors.

I think dye drop rates have increased. I have gotten 12 dyes (6 orange unfortunently) in the last 24 hours... which is around 8 hours of game play. No white yet, but I am hoping.
If anyone comes up with a nice new necro blood-red dye mix, please post! My necro's body coloring is built around blood-red armor.

i like the preview window, but the rest...
ranger armor: blue or black alone are both darker than blue with black mixed...
the closest to bloodred i could find was 3red + orange
just one cool thing: blue, green and red gives a colour like black except a brown instead of a blue/violet hue on some necroarmor

But seriously, you might want to try using more dyes to get the color you are looking for. By this I mean, if you think the red dye is too "drab" try 2-3 reds. I noticed that now multiple colors add to the saturation. Personally, I don't see a saturation problem in the new dyes. I acctually think there are more options. And I like hoe silver adds to the contrast & grey lowers it. So many options now! |
Not happy with this messup at all.
Oh and I have dyes now that have dropped that still won't stack with my other dyes.

The options now offered will increase the personalization of our characters by a significant order of magnitude. |
I do like the dye window very much.

Im not to fond of the new dye changes, it makes my armour appear very different and not as good. Im using a silver,blue and silver,purple mix on my 15k elem armour and after the update this colour has completely changed:
Old colour
New colour with the same mix
The difference is very easy to see if you contrast it with the rest of the armour.
I also sent a suggestion to GW support if they could add an update that would allow us to customise the secondary colour on the armour (like the gray bits on mine) and they just sent the generic, thank you for your comments reply.
If anyone else would like to be able to dye the secondary part, please send a suggestion to GW support.

How do you mix this dye now does anyone know?

My problem with stacking dyes is not between old and new but rather between dyes dropping in Tyria/Cantha and dyes dropping in Elona.
So I have 2 stacks of brown dyes and 2 stacks of white dyes... and every other dye for that matter
Hope they fix this

More storage please
And I too, am having the problems with dyes not stacking, and now that it was mentioned, the ones that didn't stack, i'm pretty sure were from other chapters of the game.

The dye problem is getting worse not better. I now have 3 kinds of blue dye that won't stack with each other. I just got a blue dye in Elonia that won't stack with my original stack nor will it stack with another odd blue that won't stack with my original. However a green that dropped in the same instance stacked with my old stack just fine. This is starting to get funny.

My poor mesmer can never get the pretty colors that are currently on her armor ATM.
Can't mix new armor with old armor due to color incompatibility. T-T
Bring back different color base armors!
Bring back dye-remover! Move grey dye to dye trader!
Keep dye-previewer. ^^

So thats why dye wont stack, what a dumb idea all dye of the same colour should stack no matter where it was found.

- Make Basic Armor Color near white for pure dye colors.
- Add dye remover back in to fade dye colors.
- Add grey dye to Merchant to actually dye things grey / dull another dye color.
- Keep Dye-Previwer / mixer screen
- Make ALL same color dyes stack!

White Dyes LOL [TEP] is green.
I dont see the point in everyone going mad over white dyes, all they do is raise the price and start a trend, and once everyone is wearing white and realises that they dont stand out so much, they change colour.
In which the price of white dyes has declined and everyone has moved onto a new mix or somthin.
Good luck to yer, dressed in white, The Engineered Plague remains green, although i am keen to find out what shades of green you can now get with a white dye hehe.

I would think white dye used in a mix would make a brighter variant of that color. Green+White.....
I have seen the white on armors and only one character I think will ever get it. My warrior with 15k Luxon. Makes the viening stand out more.

I have a single green dye that won't stack with the pile of green dyes I got. I forgot where it dropped, but the only difference I found is that this particular green dye is worth 25g, while the others are worth only 1g. Must be ultra pure green dye to be worth 25x more than typical.
The other gripe I have is the fact that the dye mix I've been using for my ranger no longer works. I figured it was due to requiring a white dye so when one finally dropped for me, I tested it out. Still not quite right. I tried sooooo many combinations but I have a feeling I need a 5th dye slot to get my original colour. Maybe one day I'll gather up all my dyes and try a crapload of combinations to try to get it right, but really it sucks that my old dye mix doesn't look the same anymore...

Ever notice knight armor from Droks shows as gold for a split second when you put it on the turns grey or whatever color you attempted to dye it?
