I need help (Ranger Druid's armor dye question, oh God) - Guild Wars Forums

So I bought the 15k Druid's set after a weekend of hardcore farming and saving, However, I made a mistake.

I decided to try another color on the pants and felt that blue-green looked foul on it. So, ignorant little me decides to buy a dye remover and take care of the problem, reverting the pants to their original dark brown.

Wrong.

It became a beige color. As of this post, I've spent 5k trying different dye combinations to get that dark brown. So far, I've failed. Now I plead for some help. What is the default color for the 15k Druid's set? -.-

Many armors come pre-dyed, and are not at their base color. You found this out the hard way.

I'd recommend going to the Community Works forum and check out the Dye Charts topic. There's a huge ammount of info there on various dye combinations, and someone may have already posted about that particular color.

Okay, thank you for your suggestion.

While I go do that through that mammoth thread, I wouldn't mind it at all if someone decided to shorten my search with a more specific answer. In fact, it would be highly appreciated.

my female ranger is in pink now (red+dye remover or red+purplr+dye remover) and she looks great

if you want to go for something that looks more like original, the best one is green. its the more natural looking color on druids in general

PS- DONT try black cuz it looks realy crappy on druids. it comes out some kinda of grey/greenish weird color that i would never keep, even after spending tons of cash. i dyed the whole set, got discusted and then went back to pink

I have found Orange+Green=Brown on Ranger masks, it should work on your Druid's Armor. I could test it myself, but I have mine dyed silver. Good luck.

I eventually went with blue+green+green+green for a rich jungle green on the vest, gloves and boots. For the pants I used red+orange+green, I think, for a dark brown that seems to resonate with the wood on the suit.

8k for all that testing. @_@
