I have a SLIGHT problem with the new dye system and the Tyrian Pyromancer robes for males. I'll try to explain this the best I can.

Now if you take a look at the top part of the robes for a male Pyromancer, you'll notice that it now has the inside of the robes dyed completely. I would rather it was the old way: the flame trim being dyed around the outside while the inside of the robes stay black. Now I like the new dye colours. I like how the red seems more blood red than a fiery orange. I just DON'T like how the inside of the robes look now, and I now have no way of changing it back. All I ask is for this simple fix. Please change it back to the way it was.

You can spot a games workshop player a mile away.

Are you on about the 15k or 1.5k armor?

I got my 15k pyro armor nearly 10 months ago, so I wasnt aware of any change.

Are you sure they changed it?

Darkobra · Dec 11, 2006, 04:11 PM // 16:11

I'm on about the 1.5k basic Pyromancer armour and only when recently dyed does it change. I've no idea if the 15k has this change too.

Priest Of Sin · Dec 11, 2006, 04:30 PM // 16:30

At least Chaos Black still looks good

I haven't noticed any change, could you make a screenshot so we know what you're talking about?

Now take a look at the bottom of the robes behind his legs. It's completely red now. It USED to be black with the edge of fire trailing around the bottom of it, regardless of what colour it was dyed. How it used to be is how I prefer it.

Ohhhhh, you mean the inside of it....

....travisty!!

Coming from one ele who owns all the end game 15k armors. I wouldnt worry about it. Once you get 15k armor, youl realise how crap it looked anyway.

Darkobra · Dec 11, 2006, 05:47 PM // 17:47

I've seen all the elementalist armours, and to be honest, that is the only armour I like. I still do like it, as long as I don't have to see that imperfection staring me in the face. I'm a man that likes dark clothes, and with the taints of red, it just made it look great for me. I really hope they change it back to the way it was. I have no idea why it was changed like this in the first place. If I'd have taken a closer look at the dye preview when I rushed to get a new coat of paint after the dye upgrades, I'd never have changed it. If there was a way to change it back, I'd take a leap at it.

Darkobra · Dec 13, 2006, 02:39 PM // 14:39

I wonder if I'm the only elementalist that feels this way... Well, considering that the majority of elementalists I've seen are female and the few males I've seen rarely wear this armour.

Vinraith · Dec 13, 2006, 03:54 PM // 15:54

Thanks for the screen shot, I haven't played an ele in awhile. You're absolutely right that the new dye pattern is inferior to the old one.

Fight the good fight! Save the Pyromancers! Many are being washed up on beaches and need a good toss back into the ocean! They will DIE if not in their natural habitat! Or... just fix the robes. That'd make us happy too.

Priest Of Sin · Dec 14, 2006, 04:47 PM // 16:47

Man, that does look kinda bad...

'course I don't play an ele.

/signed anyway

looks like u can choose the lining color of your coat. I didnt think it looks bad.

~the colorblind rat~

Darkobra · Dec 15, 2006, 03:49 PM // 15:49

It's not the lining of the coat that's bothering me. It's the whole inside of the robe that's now just a massive wall of red, when it used to be black with the edge of the inside too being any colour you dyed it.

Darkobra · Dec 16, 2006, 02:56 PM // 14:56

I wonder if they'll ever change the armour. I mean, it seems like a slight bug and not intended to be the way they are now. But then again, I don't think they announce changes to armours.

Darkobra · Dec 18, 2006, 03:36 AM // 03:36

Support your local Pyromancer!

Samuel Dravis · Dec 18, 2006, 03:46 AM // 03:46

Personally I don't use that armor on my ele (yah, he's a man, weird eh?). I get your point though; it does look bad. It should be black on the inside.

IMO, what really needs to happen is for eles to get some actual ROBES. I would so buy them.

electrofish · Dec 18, 2006, 04:21 AM // 04:21

Ouch... you don't suppose it's because of the lighter setting of the log-in screen do you? Looking at the examples from http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Pyroman...rmor_%28art%29 I'm guessing that the shadow will fall correctly into place in the in-game light setting and giving it its shadow back?

if it was indeed changed then /signed because the big blodge of color does kinda stand out in a bad way.

/notsigned

Theres a reason why you can buy 15k pyromancer armour if you dont like the cheap tacky one.
