Silver mix suggestion - Guild Wars Forums

Ive looked at the dye charts, and realize I have a lot of silvers to start playing with, can anyone recommend a good silver mix to put on necro scar armor?

If you do blue+silver+blue it comes out to a gooddark blue. Try it w/ other collors like this.
*****+Silver+*****

well the problem with tats armor is that the color of the dye isnt nessecarily what it turns out looking like....so Im more or less looking for the outcome, not the pre-applied color

What color skin does your necro have? It will make a big difference to how the color will look. It won't dye differently, it's just different color scars look better on different color skin.

I tried all sorts of combinations on my necro (darkest black skin available) and couln't stand the look of any color at all. The pinks and oranges that seem to be a common result just don't seem to support the evil role of a necro.

I ended up settling on straight silver, which I still think looks ugly.

~Edit - Unfortunately black doesn't even yeild black.

Necro's don't strike me as really evil, just very... pragmatic.

Does scar dye like ascetic's does? Silver + Blue + Purple makes a really nice effect on my monk's ascetics, not sure how it will affect scar. It looks pretty cool, like Day-Glo almost.

I like to think of silver as my glowy and/or shiny component in dye mixes, it usually brings out the right color when I use it in that sense (A shiny lime green might be really nice on darker skin)

I tried many combinations. I don't like the glow. I just want him dark and ugly, not glowing and ugly. Pure black scars would be the best for me.
