Very nice find, I was thinking about dying my 15k Canthan black but the new black dye just seemed to dark, so I might use this combo and see how it turns out.

This dye recipe is actually very good thinking, even if it doesn't work on all armours. All armour dyes differently, in any case.

To me it's a sort of variation of CMYK used in printing. (cyan-magenta-yellow-black for those unfamiliar with the technology).

Might be interesting to play with RBG (Red blue green).

Might just be interesting to play with a whole lot of dye variations and see what comes up. I can't remember how I got the pink for my assassin, but it was something weird like two purples and an orange. It's more dusky pink than baby pink, unfortunately.

This combo produces a dark, forest green on Male Mesmer Obsidian armor. It looks great, and was the color I was trying to find (but couldn't arrive at)

I just love the preview window. It saves so much dye from being wasted. This was one of anets best updates.

I love forest green. What is the combo for that?

Your kidding, right? 3 black dye to make dye? Isn't that a little redundant?

Grey dye isn't the same as dye remover. They work totally different.....genius.

this combo ( or a similar one) works on assassins aswell. when i had my assi i used a dye combo like this.

zara · Mar 04, 2007, 06:30 PM // 18:30

Here is that combo on monk FoW

NOTE: This is the old style monk FoW when the dyes used to invert and the armor didnt cost shards.

ranger 15k frostbounds

ranger sunspear

ranger 15k studded leather

ranger fow

EDIT: Added ranger armors

Heres mine. On FoW it look like grey, but on Kurzick, its a lil more like black.

remmeh · Mar 04, 2007, 10:16 PM // 22:16

It's a nice dark gray on Mesmer vabbian.

(original combination; Yellow + Blue + Green + Purple)

I've tried it on my 15k Necrotics and it works wonders

Bitis Gabonica · Mar 05, 2007, 01:45 AM // 01:45

I too have been tinkering for several combinations of black, here is a black color combination for the Warrior armor at Kadash Bazaar

Blue/Orange

OK, will the original dye in the first post work on 15K Luxon Male for NECROMANCER? Or do I need a slight tweak?

Sir Skullcrasher · Apr 09, 2007, 07:21 PM // 19:21

Nice find, I'll try it out tonight on my armors and see how it look!

The Last Cruzader · Apr 09, 2007, 08:37 PM // 20:37

Just did it on my primeval and it gave a really nice dark grayish purple color that fits with the rest of the armor after I did my necromancer.

phallanxian · Apr 10, 2007, 01:43 AM // 01:43

on 15k kurzic warrior try purple and green that looks like old black

Dye Remover set armor to it's "base color" (Armor no longer has a "base color"). Gray Dye makes armor.... Gray

I think the point was "the new black looks hiddious."

Might have gotten the wrong impression, though. ^_^"

I, personally, like teal and pink.
