Assuming that is right, the mix will have a possiblity of working on other armors if you replace the Dye Remover with a Red Dye. It works right on necro armor b/c Dye remover = Red on Necro armors.

And if you can post a pic so everyone will know what it looks like.

I doubt it will work for other professions. The slight differences in shades often isn't really noticable with 1- or 2-dye mix, but a 4-dye mix is probably complicated enough that it will yield drastically different results. (For example, if you look at the green+purple combo on several charts you'll see everything from teal to light blue to lavender; the differences would likely be even more pronounced with blue and red mixed in.)

It's a pretty well-known formula from the GWO necromancer forum, here's one of the pics from there (posted by Kyshen, he mentions a few posts down that it's the PGBD combo).

Hi, me again

I just spent a little over 40k on red, green, blue and purple dye trying to mix a nice milky/light pink for my Ranger's 1.5 Luxon (Female) armor. The closest I've gotten so far is this really DARK pink...

I'm still looking for a nice light/milky pink, can anyone PLEASE help me out?

I'm looking to get my female mes some 15k canthan armor.....but I have no idea how dyes will look on it.....does anyone have this armor and can you tell me which other mes armor (or other armor) it dyes similarly to?



and to answer the ele question a few above (full_moon)...there are a few color combos on that armor...the shoes are one, and the top and bottom are another---they look similar to my luxon armor which I dyed yellow purple for the jadeish color....not sure if that turns out the same for other armors. Hope that helps.

Looks like green+blue, or possibly green+blue+silver.

Have you tried plain old red+silver? That seems to give a nice light pink on most ranger armors, though it may dye differently since it's turtle shell instead of leather. Red+one or more dye removers might or might not work as well.

If Luxon dyes like Drakescale, red is extremely bright while orange is much more subdued- adding orange to the mix might soften the red. (From the 15k Drakescale dye chart, orange+blue gives a nice faded red/pink.)

15k Canthan seems to have more vibrant colors than other mesmer armors, from the pics I've seen. Your best bet would be to look through a collection of mesmer armor pictures and look at the ones of that armor to get an idea of how it dyes (the Mesmer Armor Pictures thread on GWO is a good place for that, I don't know if Guru has a similar thread).

It's all a matter of preference, one person may love the color another person hates. Personally, when I was making the dye chart for the necro FoW I remember liking red+orange a lot.

I'll give the orange + blue a try, I've tried red + dye remover, what I got was the realllly dark pink... I have my a few bars higher than default too. Anyways I'll give orange+blue a try, thanks

(and guru does have a mesmer screenshot, but not many more photos of the cantha other than the colors I mentioned already).

I believe thats a color acchieved when placing a blue dye into a green dye.

Note to thread starter, once I get the last piece of 15K luxon I can work on a dye chart for that if it helps.

That would be great, especially since I have been severly lacking in motivation to work on the charts.

You can't really look at the color of the Vial to tell you what the outcome will be. That chart I was just something extra I did while doing the 3 Dye Mixes on the monk armor.

But the standard for "White" Dye is YSSS or sometimes YSS. There are probably a couple more version, but those are the generic versions of the White Dye.

its not so easy to dye 15k cathan, thats why u see alot of 15k cath sets in black or y+s+s - its not just glossy or matte, it got a complex brokade-like texture. i think it dyes similarly to droks virtuoso set

I don't think you have to register to browse there, just to post. Yeah, it is a pain to dig through those huge threads (which is why I usually view at 40 posts per page), but I've found them a good resource for when I'm looking for inspiration for dying my newest armor set.

What profession/armor are you trying to dye? And what do you consider "baby blue", just a light blue?

Is it true that you cant make those dye options anymore showed here under necro/monk obsidian?
I've seen a monk ingame with obsidian armor, and asked him what dye mix he had used on his armor , he told me this particular dye mix (baby blue) cant be made anymore because you cant buy (tatoo) pattern anymore @ fow.

I like to make a baby blue dye mix on male monk fow. On the old chart this is orange + yellow. Anyone knows how to make this?

Since I haven't done a chart for the new FoW Monk Armor, you can probably use and of the other Monk armor charts to get a general idea of how the Dye will work. It won't be exact, but its better than nothing.

Hott Blue Snow: I can't remember off the top of my head how well the generic white turns out on Ele's, but I am sure someone will know.

shadow_tempest: I don't have a pic, but when you use a Black dye you get a dark greenish color, not Black.
