Double Dye Weekend Issues
Kyosuke
Is anyone else having trouble getting Dyes...
I'm getting less Dyes than I would just farming normally.. and yes I am farming in Elona before anyone asks. My friend has gotten 10 Dyes so far and he's been farming less than me. I've gotten 2 total so far within the past 2 1/2 hours....

Uh... I've found one dye so far this weekend, but I don't exactly farm.
I could just be up to our luck, I mean two times an extremely small chance is still an extremely small chance. :P

Been having the opposite problem. Too many dyes, but not the ones you'd hope for. 10g dyes, instead of gold or items that would merch for a much better price. <_<

I hit my double dye already. I've been on for a good 6 hours now and I've gone from about 2.5% in my exploration to 9% and most of that was the main land.
I got a Sliver and a Brown. Those were off of Corsairs on Noob Island.
I'm not very lucky when it comes to dyes, I rarely get them although I did get 2 blacks, they are tucked away in my storage.
I was hoping to get my stock of blue/purple up but it doesn't look so good as I am working most of the weekend.

well, I guess i can't complain too much... I got 4 Dyes within 3 hours or so... but one was white, so i can't complain since i got a rare... still wanted more though. my friend has found 15 now.. meep including whtie for him too

All day questing and map clearing on the island group - not farming - (with breaks for eating and such) with two different characters and only 3 dyes total. Two browns and a yellow.
But considering that I've only found 1 dye in the past week, I guess that is definitely a double drop rate for me .

6 dyes so far!
Corran Horn
well, at this rate I don't think too many people are going to be "stocking up" this weekend.
Angelica
No dyes for me yet!
OK - After so many hours of playing and doing quests I have not yet had a drop of dye! What is going on? And I'm playing (NF) in Elona!
Sure I'm not lucky with dye drops normally, but I thought I would have a chance at some drops on the weekend event, sigh!

No dye for me either and yesterday I got two or three. I also think there is some issues with the double dye. I'm certainly not getting more and since they aren't super rare I would expect to get more than I did during the double green weekend but so far I got more greens than dyes.
Kyosuke
Yeah, it's really weird. I've been getting less than what I normally would in basic farming. Their thing must be glitched somehow, b/c with some people it would seem they're getting triple ot quadruple dye while others aren't getting jack.

So is it a double dye weekend or a .5 dye weekend? :P I've had zero so far.
Time to go powerfarm cantha again.

The Double-Dye only applies to Elona... doesn't work in Factions or Prophecies.

I actually got a ton farming before, and not really anything now. Though I've spent 90% of my time doing PvP. Not like that's really any different from before though.
Rathcail
Got one dye drop so far during this weekend. It was white.

got one white with a full group of heroes and hench... i wonder how many dyes they stole.
arcanemacabre
I'm getting less, actually, as in NONE. Since I've been in Elona, I've probably gotten 1-2 dyes a day. I play tonight for 5 hours (got hooked) and I got nothing. My wife is having the same luck, too, except she's naturally luckier than me. Since she started in Elona, she's gotten 3-4 dyes a day, including two white dyes! Arrgh! Tonight, only one.
Shadowfox1125
I've gotten 3 dyes so far: a green, a purple, and a yellow. Nothing special.
Linksys
I got 2 blue dyes, a yellow, and a purple today. This week before today, I got a lot including two black dye drops in one day. And this was just in the area outside Kamadan farming for items to trade for Halloween items. A white dye on an earlier day too.
SilintNinjya
i dont even know a good place to farm at all.
Jeff Highwind
Spent 5 hours doing quests for the Vabbian princes. Not a damn dye has dropped yet. Meanwhile, my guildie gets 3 whites in his excursions. That just aint right.
shardfenix
1 day of gargoyle farming usually gets me 2 dyes, today I got none. only 1 in presearing also. out of ~ 10 charr runs.
arcady
Found one dye today. The number of dyes I have in my inventory is about just over the number of weeks I've owned GW's.
So if during the weekend I find a second dye, I'll be at twice my normal rate...

i rarely get any dye drops to begin with. during the past month of around 20-25hrs of game play, ive gotten maybe 1-2 dyes [no blacks or white]. i c no point in farming for dyes with my current drop rate
Cunning
I got probably 6 today, just doing basic quests and a little bit of farming.

Last night, I got about 6 soloing and killing everything in Jarin Plains. Best was silver. I usually get 2 or 3 dyes here, so statistically, it does seem to be double.
Then I headed out, briefly, into Zehlon Reach and got 1 black - my first ever, though it doesn't beat the white I got there 2 days ago. I was with Heroes, because I'm less confident soloing here. Will try again, with less backup, later today.

I got a Black last night...
That makes 3 Blacks and a White in 2 weeks, and I gotten 75% of those just PvEing.

??iljo
got 2 whites and 1 black since yesterday 5 p.m.
Sagaris
What I got today? Zip. Nothing. As I only have found 1 dye in my Dervish career (I'd say about 25 hours of questing) I'm not having much hope.
Linksys
I'm leveling up my Dervish and got some more dyes, including a silver and a white. Keep trying, you'll get some.
garethporlest18
I got 2 blacks Thursday. Friday I got one red dye.
Ebony Shadowheart
Day One of Double Dye Drop Weekend: Nothing. 6.5 hours of playing and not a single drop as I was out questing and such.
Lets see how day two goes.
Edit: 3 days - 3 dyes....this is double? I think not. I get 3 times this many in one farming run! lol. was fun anyway.

Agreed that I'm not seeing a huge increase either. I think the heros are getting them all.
I was getting a lot of dye drops before the weekend. I did get one black yesterday doing a mission. I'm going to take my minion master out alone and see if that is in the fact the case, but I'm starting to side with the folks that are saying drops for hero's should be going to the person care taking the heros. >.<

My moringing o Day 2 was slow, I tried my low Dervish character, and I tried my Level 20 Ranger.
I was killing things left and right and I did see an increase in the drops of "Unidentified" weapons, however in 3 hours I only got a purple dye.
Better, I've never gotten dye drops 2 days in a row, let alone 2 in the same day, I was under the impression that I would be seeing more of them dropping.
If they do this to reduce the cost(supply and demand) I think they should up it a little more.
