Default Double Dye Weekend Issues

Is anyone else having trouble getting Dyes...

I'm getting less Dyes than I would just farming normally.. and yes I am farming in Elona before anyone asks. My friend has gotten 10 Dyes so far and he's been farming less than me. I've gotten 2 total so far within the past 2 1/2 hours....

Uh... I've found one dye so far this weekend, but I don't exactly farm.
I could just be up to our luck, I mean two times an extremely small chance is still an extremely small chance. :P

Been having the opposite problem. Too many dyes, but not the ones you'd hope for. 10g dyes, instead of gold or items that would merch for a much better price. <_<

I hit my double dye already. I've been on for a good 6 hours now and I've gone from about 2.5% in my exploration to 9% and most of that was the main land.

I got a Sliver and a Brown. Those were off of Corsairs on Noob Island.

I'm not very lucky when it comes to dyes, I rarely get them although I did get 2 blacks, they are tucked away in my storage.

I was hoping to get my stock of blue/purple up but it doesn't look so good as I am working most of the weekend.

All day questing and map clearing on the island group - not farming - (with breaks for eating and such) with two different characters and only 3 dyes total. Two browns and a yellow.

But considering that I've only found 1 dye in the past week, I guess that is definitely a double drop rate for me .

well, at this rate I don't think too many people are going to be "stocking up" this weekend.

No dyes for me yet!



OK - After so many hours of playing and doing quests I have not yet had a drop of dye! What is going on? And I'm playing (NF) in Elona!
Sure I'm not lucky with dye drops normally, but I thought I would have a chance at some drops on the weekend event, sigh!

No dye for me either and yesterday I got two or three. I also think there is some issues with the double dye. I'm certainly not getting more and since they aren't super rare I would expect to get more than I did during the double green weekend but so far I got more greens than dyes.

Yeah, it's really weird. I've been getting less than what I normally would in basic farming. Their thing must be glitched somehow, b/c with some people it would seem they're getting triple ot quadruple dye while others aren't getting jack.

The Double-Dye only applies to Elona... doesn't work in Factions or Prophecies.

I actually got a ton farming before, and not really anything now. Though I've spent 90% of my time doing PvP. Not like that's really any different from before though.

I'm getting less, actually, as in NONE. Since I've been in Elona, I've probably gotten 1-2 dyes a day. I play tonight for 5 hours (got hooked) and I got nothing. My wife is having the same luck, too, except she's naturally luckier than me. Since she started in Elona, she's gotten 3-4 dyes a day, including two white dyes! Arrgh! Tonight, only one.

I've gotten 3 dyes so far: a green, a purple, and a yellow. Nothing special.

I got 2 blue dyes, a yellow, and a purple today. This week before today, I got a lot including two black dye drops in one day. And this was just in the area outside Kamadan farming for items to trade for Halloween items. A white dye on an earlier day too.
