Bieng able to dye our heros armor would be a great idea, it would be nice if we could give our heros a unique personal touch.

Hero armor could be dyed in the preview event, but it was removed at release. I don't know why they don't allow it, but it's probably for a reason. (Like the reason they removed hippos)

Dying hero armour will not be put in for that reason, it takes up too much server memory.

Besides, there are three different armour sets for ALL heroes, so I have no idea what you're talking about. If you're so bored of their current set, do some work and get a different one.

One reason probably is that if you did dye them, dying Dunkoro's armor yellow would make it look like his 15k armor, which would be a waste of the Stolen Sunspear Armors if you only need 100g instead of 10,000.

P.S. Why DID they remove hippos?
