Everyone is talking about that when you use a Dye Remover on your Dye, your armor turns white, so I thought, lets try it. I put a Black Dye on my armor, and place Dye Remover over it, but now my armor is just back to it's original state..

How in the world can I get my armor white?

Though I don't know if it works, I've heard of people using dye remover on "bare" armor. Not sure if it does anything, but dye remover is cheap...

Dye Remover is cheap indeed, it's nothing. But the Dye's do cost much Many people say a white armor is made by putting a Dye Remover on a Black Dyed armor, but that's really expesnive to retry a couple of times, so before I try again, I want to know for sure making a whit armor is actally possible

Dye remover only returns the armor to its "natural" state. For example my W armor had blue accents when I bought it. I applied dye remover, now it has gold accents. If I were to dye it red then hit with the remover it would revert to back to gold. Likewise the Pyromancer armor is orange when you buy it. If you hit it with dye remover, it turns purple, its natural state.

Aaah That explains it. So the white armor is just at probably one armor that is orginially white?

Or perhaps they dyed it silver. Silver is the closest you're going to get to a white.

You can also use dye remover on the dye itself before you apply it. I recently found this out and its brought a whole new color spectrum to the mix.

instead of a blue/green/green combo you can use a blue then do dye remover 2 times you get a similar color. and about 400g cheaper. perhaps a few dye removers on a black dye would produce a color similar to white? you will notice that when you do apply a dye remover to a dye it will change to a lighter color but often a totally different color. but when you apply it it is different again. IE: blue with 1 dye remover looks like purple before you apply it but once you apply it its a light blue.

I have seen white monk armor, I even congratulated the player for it but he seemed to be afk.

I'll check if I got a screenshot...

Well, some Monk armors are from itself white already

And GraFFix, I think I'll try that one out today

EDIT: I've just bought all the Dyes and did Dye remover on them. I found out the following things:

- Putting more then one Dye remover on a Dye doesn't change everything, so only use one.
- Putting a Dye remover on a Dye makes a complete new color, some are nice, some are ugly.
- The Dye where you used Dye remover on look different in your inventory then when you place it on your item. For example:


This is a Black Dye where I used Dye remover on. In my inventory this was a dark Red Dye, so don't look at the color in your inventory, just try it once. This one looks really cool by the way Escpecially in game, when you turn around your character, you can see it shines.

First problem: to mix dyes, you use them on each other BEFORE you put them on armor. The first post sounds like you dyed armor black, then used dye remover.

Second, Dye remover + dye always yields a new mix, which is often wierd. But I cannot find any combo that produces white.

Third, many armors are 'pre-dyed'. Example: ranger fur-lined comes blue. Dye remover takes it back to a neutral leather color.
