Talk:Vial of Dye

Combine Limit?
It seemed the only way for me to get a cool looking set of armor was to combine green + blue + blue + remover + remover. A large number of dyes but it did the trick. For some reason, now, I can't do that. At the last remover it prevents me from adding it to the dye. Does anyone have any idea if there is a limit set in place or how I can get the same color I've been using!? --Chuiu 18:56, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Ok there seems to be a combine limit of 4. I must have used blue/remover/remover because that results in the same color that I have.  Though I swear to god I used g/b/b/r/r.  Oh well. --Chuiu 19:20, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

is it necessary to have an article for each type of dyes? --Thundergrace 16:07, 22 Sep 2005 (EST)
 * (sarcasm)That's how we do it in this Wiki. Actually, the list of dyes shouldn't be in the article in the first place. Instead each individual dye should have its own article which is listed under category:Dyes. No need for a list in the article. (/sarcasm) >:( --Tetris L 18:15, 22 Sep 2005 (EST)
 * To get back to seriousness, I don't see a reason to have articles. Just a plain list.  --Fyren 06:46, 23 Sep 2005 (EST)
 * Agreed. Especially if the articles have big bulky images. :)
 * I do believe, however, that a picture of each color next to it is a wonderful idea. --Karlos 17:48, 23 Sep 2005 (EST)
 * I think so too. We might even make them a bit larger than 12 px. :)
 * How about we arrange them in a circle, like this:
 * {| align = "center"


 * - align = "center"
 * || Red ||
 * - align = "center"
 * Orange [[image:OrangeDye.jpg|30px]] || || Purple
 * - align = "center"
 * || Black / Silver ||
 * - align = "center"
 * Yellow [[image:YellowDye.jpg|30px]] || || Blue
 * - align = "center"
 * || Green ||
 * }
 * I know the "circle" isn't perfectly round, but I think it does the job. ;) --Tetris L 18:14, 23 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * We're heading into the too much information department. :) I actually think we should place samples of ALL color mixes. i.e. not just the 8 or so standard ones. --Karlos 18:20, 23 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * Ok, i'll start mixing =P Skuld &Dagger; 04:56, 1 Oct 2005 (EST)

Green + Dye Remover does turn Gold colored in the vial, but once you apply it to armor, the armor becomes green. I tested this with a Mesmer on Rogue's Armor, so perhaps it works for other char/armor combos, but not for that one. Someone who has done more testing with this should update the article.

Bold text-> What I miss here is the purpose of coloring weapons/armors. Do I get an advantage out of it or is it just for fun?Bold text


 * Dying items is, as advertised, for dying items. No other benefits attained. :) --Karlos 21:44, 2 November 2005 (EST)

Getting dye
So any updates regarding where dye is usally dropped? I find a lot in ascalon... can anyone confirm?
 * Dye is dropped by everything, everywhere...just not very often. Black seems to be particularly rare, but the rest get dropped regularly no matter what or where you're fighting. --PKDawson 00:22, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Minor Edits
In Usage, I changed "All armor and weapons" to "Most armor...", especially since it doesn't take more than six paragraphs to contradict itself. Yes, my pedantry knows no bounds. --Havral Glommon 20:20, 28 February 2006 (CST)
