Were ink vials selling in pre faction days? - Guild Wars Forums

Just a curiosity as I didn't remember them being so expensive back then. Were they always selling at the rare materials trader or are they a new addition?

I could remove the Tempered Glass Vials, but I wasn' so sure of the ink vials

Haven't they also always been craftable?

Guilwiki shows three Tyrian artisans that craft Vials of Ink:

ink vials did exist before Factions went live; the issue was that they weren't actually used for anything in Prophecies much like rubies

you can't "craft" dye anywhere other then the sense that combining dyes will give you a different color

Knightsaber hit it for you.

Factions changed the face of what was expensive and what wasn't to a degree.

Only mateiral added in Factions was Amber and Jadite, but with faction's armor choices the price of things swithed.

yep, they have been around for at least the last year....my monk bought a whole bunch thinking they would be needed for his tats.....and still have most of them from then in hopes they would be used. I was happy to see that some of the armor does use them now, so my time and energy didnt go to waste!
