Mixing Dyes in Elona - Guild Wars Forums

Hello!

I was playing with my Derv last night trying to create a Yellow+Silver+Yellow Dye mix. Unlike in previous campaigns, I could not add one bottle to another to create a new vial of mixed dye. So, with the new armour display, I thought it made sense to apply one after the other to the armour individually.

However, as I went about applying the three dyes to each piece, it simply changed from yellow, to silver, back to yellow...no mixing happened...they just changed from one colour to the other.

Am I missing something about how to mix dye these days in Elona, or was it just an issue of how the dye was taking to the cloth?

Any pointers or help would be really appreciated

Applying the dyes individually to the armor won't mix the dye, it'll just change the color. You want to mix dye, use the dye preview window to do it. One thing that stinks about it is that you can't mix dyes of the same color.
