Black Dye - Guild Wars Forums

Yesterday i mooched a ton of money off a friend and bought the platemail armor adn dyed it black (looks sweet), anyway im using the chaos axe and i dyed it black as well which instead of giving off the blue glow it gave off and White which also looks very impressive, but seems dumb now that i think about it because the dye is worth much more than the axe itself. Anyway my question is i wanted a matching shield. I was looking at the Eternal shield which is a clear blue color, if i were to dye this shield black whould it turn clear?

first shield I think of is the shadow shield, which drops in the fissure

when you dye it, the eyes change colors
in my exemple, it's dyed red

Yeah my buddy has a shield like that, he dyed it silver and the shield turned to more of a grey color. Very nice looking though. I was more intrested in a modded eternal shield but i want to know if it will turn clear if i dye it black.

Theres no way to make a chaos axe glow black, and if you dye an eternal shield any color it stays blue. So go with a Shadw Shield.

theres a trick to the Chaos axes, and its the same thing with the tatoos and necro scars.

has a handy color wheel for dying the scars and tats, and one for dying the axe

dont know about the shields, cause i havent made it to the UW ect....but i hope the color stuff will help out later

Maybe i didn't make my question clear...

Choas axe (originally blue glow) + Black dye ---> You get a White Glow

Eternal Shield (Clear Blue color) + Black dye ---> ?
