Double Dye?
Ralelen
Maybe this is atypical but for the last four hours of soloing I have only seen two dyes drop. Has anyone else had this problem?
Riva
Same here.

Mindtrust
well like all their events with doubble something it's not that good... i never noticed any change, but maybe it's there and the droprate normally is even more awful.

If you did not read on the official website, the double dye weekend is only in Elona...

Soloing with my Dervish and have got something like 1 brown, 2 yellows, 2 blues, 3 oranges, 1 green, 1 red, 1 silver and 1 white in the newbie island within 5 hours.

I've only gotten one dye, a brown one.. and i've been farming for them for a few hours now with my dervish..
duncan99
no dyes and ive been playing for 2 full days..

Yep, although I'm sure someone will come back and say "drops are random, get over it"...I've had one brown dye drop and that's it. I get more dye drops when it's not a "double drop" weekend. Doesn't bother me too much since I don't need dye especially...but if it's supposed to be a "double dye drop weekend" you'd have thought that perhaps more could be dropping...

Exactly my point. I've been playing in Elona since my last post in this thread and haven't gotten a single dye.
vergerefosh
noticed no difference

Since starting Nighfall with my Tyrian Warrior, I have had 2 dye drops so far and both were before the "event"
And I'm following my standard practice of killing all enemies on map (for exploration), then moving on...
Not that it really matters as I only use dye on new armours...

Well I was talking this over with my guild and think about it, dye drops are damn rare normally so doubling the drop rate isn't going to help much, just give an extra one here and there...

Guys....just remember that 2x.0005 doesn't equal much metter odds.

I was getting 4 or 5 dye drops each day before the event started. Since then I haven't gotten any, nor have the people I play with.. :/
elsalamandra
I have only had an orange drop since event started.
It should have been named 'drop dead dye weekend' lmao

I have seen more key's drop then dyes.
But seen the dye prices at the dye trader, i think monsters do not like me OR they just want to get beaten up all the time :-P

I soloed in Elona for a good 6 hours. Got one white.
Of course I'm more than happy for that, but yeah you would expect more...

Double weekend yeah sure, double of nothing is nothing. Instead of doubling it, it should have been a henchies get nothing weekend.

I got a red, purple from the 2x weekend. About the same any weekend.

I found two dyes during the -ENTIRE- double dye weekend, and one more after 30-40 minutes after it was over.
That's triple my normal rate for a week, unless I assume the last one counts for this week, which means I should expect to not find any more dyes this week.
I must have been on for 30+ hours over Friday and the weekend, I went at it quite heavily...
The problem with making dye more common is that while it helps people get more appealing characters, older players who have vested their 'game capital' in dye hording don't want the prices corrected - which increasing availability would do.

Whenever I tried during the event, I got dyes. I farmed the Plains of Jarin for 3 hours and got 3 dyes (1 orange, 1 red, 1 purple). Unfortunately, these were all "crap dyes". Farming the same area on wednesday I got 2 whites in 1 run.
Basically it's not a question of being nerfed, its just the luck of the draw. I was thinking we'd see a lot more whites though because it would have made sense for ANet to flood the market with white and lower the price.
