quick question, does anyone know how to make teal with dyes?

tryed simply mixing greens with blues but could not come out with what i was looking for.

if anyone knows and could share it would be appreciated, save me buying more dyes to try to find the right combination.

thanks.

It will depend greatly on the armour in question, they all dye differently.

But try adding silver or grey to the mix, that might work for you.

it kinda depends what armour you have?

my monk has a slimier color but it was just green and blue

its norn rits armor.

Blue and green does it on necro armour.

If that sample is the color you are after I don't know if you can get it. You can try adding white to the blue/green mix.

For my monk, I wanted the blue/green teal as shown on the Elite Kurzick for monks in the dye guide. When I added her Labyrinthine tats to the outfit, I had to dye them blue/green/blue to get the same shade.

Every armor is slightly different. You can try asking in the Screenshot Request subforum if someone has that color on that armor.

Dunno how Norn armor works, but my Rit is sporting Elite Kurzick armor dyed Blue+Green+Silver. It's a dark teal with a bit more shading to it.

I would try blue and green.

I miss the days when you could mix dyes in a vial but it's easier now to see the future of what your armor would look like this way.

I remember buying blue and green, making teal dye, and selling it for more to noobs as a "rare" dye

Green + Purple got me a similar color on my female Paragon's 15k Sunspear set.

Green + Blue + Silver got me a darker version of that color on my female Ranger's Norn set. (The dye preview window doesn't really look like the color it shows while wearing it. Seems like the ambient light in the preview window washes out the green part and leaves it looking more blue than teal.)

I've taken to keeping at least one of each color in storage for dye preview tests.

IIRC My monks kurzick armor has that shade, it's blue, green, yellow and I think silver...

browser glitch sry...

Accursed · Sep 17, 2008, 04:46 AM // 04:46

It depends on the type of armor you want to dye really.

But usually the mix is Blue+Green+ (Silver, Grey, White, Yellow)= Teal.

Monarch has it on this one! Hope you find the answer you were looking for, OP!

I was just messing about with my Paragon and noticed Purple and Green give kind of Greyish-Teal if that makes sense.

It might be a good base to add White or Silver or maybe Yellow too.

Shadowhaze · Sep 17, 2008, 10:35 AM // 10:35

Green + Purple on my monk woven got me a tealish color. (Pretty sure that's what it was.)

pamelf · Sep 17, 2008, 02:13 PM // 14:13

Purple and Dye Remover actually got me that exact colour on my mesmer back in the good old days. It was pretty awesome.

Quaker · Sep 17, 2008, 02:38 PM // 14:38

Just buy some dam dye and try it out - other than black & white, dyes are cheap.
