Dye Charts [MERGED]
Batou of Nine
Anyone know of a whiter color for the mesmer's Enchanter armor from droks??
This pic is of my mes with Yellow+Silver+Silver+Silver on the shirt and legs. In the right light it is truely a creamy white color, and other light makes it look egg shell... Suggestions to make it more pure white? (brighter?)
Ya ya, i know the gloves look ugly, sort of a surgeon's plastic glove look...

I was hoping to make my monk FoW armor PURE white... I tried the silver + silver + silver + dye remover and all I got was a wierd brown color on the FoW monk armor..
Here is how my monk looks with silver dye, which looks pretty kool, don't get me wrong, but I wanted it bright white.. if for no other reason then to see what it looks like..

Linsys, would you be interested in loaning me about 15 minutes of your time one day? I would really like to do the 2 Dye mixes on Monk FoW armor.
And it might even help to find your white mix.
If you are interested in helping, let me know.

Does anyone know how to get the color turquoise on the 15k platemail properly, and does anyone know how to make white dye?

white dye has a lot of different combinations
some popular ones are:
yellow+silver+silver+silver
blue+silver+silver+silver
dye remover+silver+silver+silver
for any of the combos, you're gonna need 3 silvers

(BTW, I should have the rest of the warrior armor pics for you soon, unless my monk finds a good deal on a staff... I'm trying to split my funds between personal expenses and this project)

Ok i am a little confused with the simple method of mixing to dyes of the same colour only together. How on earth do i mix silver with just silver? I double clik on my silver dyes, then clik on them again to try and get a mix and ...... nothing? I can't split the same coloured dyes up in my inventory, so I am either missing somthing here or I just don't know? Confused. So I added silver to my armour then another silver on top, but it remains silver as the first post stated. I take it i have to add a different colour first to begin the mix? Any answers on this.
Venenatus Ensis
ok djroar i see your problem. first, u can't mix to of the same dyes together. you can however, add two different dyes together and then add the same dye as many times as u would like. the white combo i posted earlier goes like this:
(Silver + Yellow) + Silver + Silver
u have to add the first silver and yellow together before any other silver can be added. Also this has to be done when they are in vials, on armor the dyes replace each other. When u add silver to your armor, u get silver. If u add another silver TO THE ARMOR, u replace the silver that was on there with the silver u just used. got it?

I know that this would be expensive, but I only have 20k and don't want to use it all on this one dye mix. I'm thinking (Black+purple)+black+black.. Would that make it a really dark metallic black? Normal black just isn't good enough for me ^^ By the way, I would be using it on a warrior with 15k platemail armor..
It would be nice if someone tried it and posted a screen

Good luck getting someone to spend 20k to test it for you, though
Venenatus' explanation is correct. Only think I would like to add is that if you do mix two of the same color together (say, red+red), it looks exactly the same as the component color (it does not make the color brighter like some people speculate). However if you add a different color to the mix it will become different.
By the way, Gaile specifically said last night there is no way to get pure white. So there you have it, all you nay-sayers ^_^
The Primeval King
Well, I tried Blac+purple.. Looks almost the same as normal purple
Venenatus Ensis
true, u can't get pure white but u can get some pretty cool lookin variations. theres bone white, holy white, and a dirty white (really light grey).

Anyone know of a bright red dye mix for warrior dragon? I have tried and tried but to no avail, any help would be very appreciated.
djroar
Ok ya'll I have just done some trials and found that you can actually add two of the same dyes together without using anything else. How did i do this, very simply I placed (one) silver dye into storage, then I clicked on another (one) silver in my invintory and added it to the silver (one) in storage and BOOM! Two silvers mixed together by themselves. Now I also noticed that you can actually have the same dye in storage but in seperate boxes. So I suppose you can add them both in there also. Now I know this may change many peoples beleives in dye mixing, but I would hope that this may make way for some better mixes from us all. By the way Silver + Silver remained a silver colour on my 15K plate mail armor and did not turn white as the chart shows, but i have yet to try some other combinations such as dye remover etc. Thanks also to my guild ( TF ) for assisting me.

I can't guarnte that those will you get what you want, but I think you will be happy.
Le Grinder
Just asking, is it at all possible to get a nice deep red colour on Knights armour? I've tried as many combinations as I can think of, including black+red dye, and they all come out some version of pink or dark mouve or some other colour which isn't really red at all. It all just seems too washed out.
^ Black and red colouring.... the rest of the armour is purple and green mixed together.

does anyone know how to get like A teal or turquise on the 15k platemail set?
Fezz
Le Grinder: Have you tried combinations that use 3 Red+something? Red+Purple+Red+Red might be worth trying if you haven't tried it already.
D3CR3PIT: You should try Blue+Green+Green to start and if its not what you are looking for add in the forth Dye to change it slightly(Yellow/Silver for a lighter color, Blue for Darker, or others to make more of an impact on the actual color).
Hope those work for yall. Be sure to post a pic if they turn out how you like.

Could someone do a dye chart for 15k Necro Scars?

Added new charts (from Fezz) to OP.

Um, would it be too much to ask when the OP gets updated next time for the first set of pics to be separated by profession (like the stuff down the bottom) and for the links to be labled male/female accordingly???

Dunno if this is a good spot for this, if it isn't, could a mod move it to where it's supposed to go please?
Feeling tired of people charging outrageous amount for something you can make yourself for half the price?
Try this:
Hint: Making Gold Dye:
First, mix Orange and Silver to make Set 1. Then mix Set 1 and Yellow to make Set 2. Finally, mix Set 2 and Silver to make Gold Dye (O+S+Y+S).
Haven't tried it myself yet but I did a google on it one time and this one came up several times as the proper mix for gold dye.
