Why are Fire Wands from GWEN impossible to dye?

I have been trying to make a black-dyed Fire Wand but no matter which I have tried to dye, all I get is the little red circle with the cross through it so it does not let me.

I have tried this with a Merchant, Collector, and Locked Chest Fire Wands that I have picked up from GWEN but I can not dye any of them. I did get a Fire Wand earlier from a chest in Elonia and was able to dye it fine, so why can't I do the same with ones from GWEN?

As for Why are they impossible to dye...probably want to ask the game developpers

The Fire Wand crafted in Vasburg/Leviathan pits cannot be dyed.

But the Prophecies Collector Fire Wand from the Crystal Desert, same skin, can be dyed.

Yes, there seems to be an inconsistency which skins can be dyed. For the wands, including Air Wands, did not test Earth Wands and Water Wands, it really matters in which area they dropped.

Yargh. All items should be dyable, and done. Why to keep some undyable? Speciall is the very same skin can be dyed if dropped elsewhere?

Or dying them makes them customised and unsellable! Green weapons have an image to meet and people expect that skin a certain colour when being traded.

Otherwise some guy could sell you a pink Rago's staff and you think "WTF?"!

Oo...

So is there any reason why Fire Wands from GWEN are not dye-able? Glitch or meant to be that way?
