Does he have a disclaimer that dyes will have different color results depending on the base color of the item being dyed?
Angels Touch
I read this and had a good laugh. The colors listed are exactly what you would expect from the ones mixed. Some one was/is scamming and someone is/will be scammed from this auction.

actually he's right, it's not based on pigments it's based on light spectrum for instance red and blue make green not purple
Rayawni
hmmm...I took art class for four years in highschool...some of that does not make any sense at all...
Gaele
So this implies that black is obsolete in mixing?

As many have said, the graphics model they're using is blending LIGHT. Perhaps those art classes should have made a little foray into physics
SirCrowbar
My intent was to irritate the one selling it, not to actually use it as a resource...

all that I have read says that actual real life mixes are not going to be the same as in game, I looked at the ebay offering of this. The person selling claims that these are actual tested mixes. I personally have looked for a mixing chart for long time. Good to see someone finially post it. I did test the purple silver and it works.
Please test what you can and post results here for all to have as a referance.

The only issue I have with mixing is ... a person should get 2 bottles when they MIX 2 bottles.
Not 1 bottle.

Through an obscure rule of physics, ArenaNet has managed to create dye that has remarkable efficiency when it comes to storage.
"Start off with one vial of dye: one vial! Mix it with another vial of dye: still one vial! Mix it with a third: yet again, one vial! And, new and improved, this dye can even fit FOUR vials mixed into one!"

Ummm...there is a mixing guide posted at gwonline I believe. I helped my dad track it down the other day as the normal green is too dark for his tastes. Anyway, the dye guide was full of various colors with the abbreviations of the mixture necessary to make that color. Why would anyone buy what this guy had on ebay? HI-larious!
exa dust
and yea haha it totally depends ont he base armor, my knights armor is pink with same dye my enchanters is gold
Arcanis Imperium
Yeah, wanna know something funny? Yelllow into Orange, and Silver into the mix makes Gold. No need to waste a silver.
Jeez and if you have a Mesmer Mask, which is shiny to begin with, yellow and orange make it gold anyway...
Its easy to get scammed in Dye Mixing. It'd be nice if Arenanet would post a real chart for people.
Yeah, the base color of the armor does deal change what the color is. Just like Necro Scars dont change the color of the dye used.

dansamy
Yup. My Pyromancer is metallicy pink with a mix of one silver and one red. NOT "silvery red" that this fellow claims. (I like my color. I've been using it since I hit post-searing. Every set gets dyed the same color.)
jasondragon
for gold
orange + silver mixed with yellow + silver = the same damn thing as orange + yellow + silver. so save your money and don't buy two silvers.

DrSLUGFly
guy tried to sell me a gold and I asked if it was real or mixed (as far as I know there is no "real" gold) he said it was real and then as I expected showed me a mix. It was ridiculously priced, far more than the ingredients put into it, and I thought it kind of cool. Everyone has their own recipes for gold. I've read 4 or 5 different ones and probably there are people who won't share the secret also. Very realistic. There is no "wrong" mixture for gold (except for ones that aren't remotely orange or yellow) but it's all a matter of opinion. lol... be neat if we could actually melt down gold pieces to put leaf over our armor, 999 gold (so that it's gold and not plat) for each piece of armor to gold leaf it.
Obsiedion
Weird question, but seeing as its physics based is there a recipe for white? in theory it should be to take a base colour and lighten it, (maybe using silver?) I have heard rumors but never actually seen it...Any ideas?
Lane
Anyone have a link to this guy's secret sauce super sale on eBay? I can't bring myself to believe this until I see it with my own two eyes.
Caelus The Fallen
In principle, white = red + green + blue, but I dont know that this works in GW...
SirCrowbar
I am willing to try it, white whould be very cool to have.
I have a feeling it would take a silver too...

silvertemplar
red+blue+green gives me some shade of yellow . Adding silver just made it darker/shiny :P ..[resembling gold]. And on my elementalist-aeromancer-armor it indeeds looks like copper ? [or perhaps gold?]
