Default Double Dye Weekend

http://www.guildwars.com/

They have said that this upcoming weekend will be a chance to get dyes to drop more. Woot! What do others think about this?

I'm sure the thinking is everyone is buying new armor right now and grey gets old fast.

There will always be the fools who say, "Hey a dye drop weekend? I wanted a 100% chance of green drops curse you Anet!!!".

But, like all the weeknds, I'll play with it. It's really cool they add this for some dye options. Heck, maybe they added it now so people don't (and can't) farm the heck out of them, in Nightfall anyways.

Well since they nerfed farming, they need to start getting real creative about how people are going to make money now. Good luck finding a way to buy fissure armor without farming or ebaying gold. I see buying GW off the web skyrocketing as a result of the recent changes.

So this dye thing is an attempt to help us cope with the changes.

I got a black dye like 6 month ago while going through a mission in Sorrow Furnace. Just two days ago, i was farming for roots outside Kamada and one of the plant enemy died and dropped me a black dye.

I used to have this problem but it fixed itself. Bad luck for ya mates.

PS: I already dropped 2 blacks, 1 white and a brown since the update. Usually blacks drop only like once a month for me.

I'm pleased about this.

Moan mode=on:

I wish they'd do it with runes too so we could experiment with new insignias and such.

Moan mode=off.

I still get yellow drops for me like no tomorrow.
When the big patch went live last week, and white and brown was added, I saw them drop for people left right and center.
And what dropped for me, you guessed it, more yellow.
