I messed around with some of my Skeleton/Skull shields last night. You can dye them but the effect is very faint. You can really only see the difference in the 'cheeks' of the shield.

Mournblade: Imagines pink cheaked skeleton shield. :XD And nice dyed white sythe or whichever weapon it is.

animal secks: I shall definitely be dying my bone staff black since the evidence seems pretty clear from your image. I wonder if it looks metalic when dyed silver. If anyone knows please do tell.

Zero G: I will be buying silver dye for my bow as soon as I get on if it means it looks like that.

Maybe someone will find this helpful:



Domination cane and jeweled chalice dyed silver.

As I recall, the Holy Rod also dyes a nice silver.

Got a shadow shield recently... =)


Couldn't bring myself to try black or silver. I'm not quite wealthy enough to 'play' with those colors yet. =)

It looks better dyed than with base colour.

For those having issues with animation stopping after dying... i tried dying my Storm Bow pink to match my ranger outfit and needless to say it stopped the animation. I used a dye remover after and it darkened it back out again cuz it had lightened a bit when i dyed it. The animation still wouldn't move. Needless to say i logged completely off Guild Wars and ran Window Washer (build 6 is what i have) and after logged back in and the animation is back. Needless to say i think it could be something in the temp internet files or something or whatever i dunno. I just know my Storm Bow is animated again! Thought i would pass that along.

From what collector did you get that, since i have a collector cruse staff i got somewhere in the Echovald forest and it simply does not accept dye

Just a heads up, Healing and Protection Rods crafted in Cantha (though having the same graphic as a Holy Rod) do not consume a vail of dye when applied.

so I'm stuck with gold, yuck

Yeah, I did notice that these two wands I crafted would refuse to dye -.-

Also, you can't dye Green items as far as I remember, so good luck with Drago's Flat Bow. :P

Mine is now pink to match my mesmer. ^_^

you didn't request it, but the Cleaver axe dyes pretty good, so I though I could post it here, not just the shaft but also the blade is coloured, here in the picture below I have shown you it, dyed in red, blue, orange, yellow, green and purple:

I've learned something new. Dying a platinum blade is a waste of time.

dying a Emblazoned defender and embossed eagis has no effect (exept the fact that your inventory will have one dye less )

Wait, does this mean you can dye the other endgame green items? Like the Exalted Aegis? Oooh this is worth trying! >_>

Anyone got a fire staff or air staff dyed? (the old-skool skins, not the new ones)

The old school skins, if you are refering to the twisted branch looking thing, are uneffected by dye if memory serves. Either that or it's so minute I fail to notice any change.

O.o can wayward wand green dye? (guessing no)

If one can dye either the handle or the orb, I might consider getting one.

Holy Staffs do NOT dye. I've tried dying my faction collector's healing staffs and the dye will not take (ie the dye isn't even consumed).
I am very disappointed

holy staffs do dye very very slightly, they stay the same basic colour with a tiny tint of the dye you used on it, well the port sledge collecter staff does anyway

I dyed my inscribed staff silver, and while it looks silver in the inventory slot, there's no actual change to the looks when you have it equipped.

Dye mix is either blue+green or blue+green+green, I forget which.
