I wanna see what I'd look like in different color armor, if everyone chose black, then w00t, it'd be cool to see everyone in matching colors.

edit:
I have 70k, get all my armor from max collectors no matter how ugly the armor is, and I still have second thoughts on buying dyes.

i too am in favor of preview rather than low cost... one reasson is that dyes are a money sink so i doubt anet will want to lose this...

but a new screen where u could c ur armor and four slots to put dyes in... then it would give u a price for it...

black = uncreatice... try silver + purple + dye remover

No... i have a stockpile of blacks.

1gp is a moronic request. 100-300gp per vail regardless of color is more realistic.

I would love to see the dye price reset and locked, I feel it would help the economy greatly. Face it, the only people who would be against this are those who make money by scamming newbies in pre ascalon.

The preview option would be nice, but rather useless if one could not preview mixes.

However, i wouldnt mind having dyes which cost less but only last 5 minutes after use. That way you could do your dye experimenting and it wont empty your pocket, at the same time as not ruining the dye market.

Do any of you know what blue-black-black-black looks like? I would love to know but there is no way I'm going to spend 30k per piece of armor dyed...

that's about 55k for black.

Relnor · Sep 23, 2006, 06:52 PM // 18:52

If I wanted blue-black-black-black armor, it would be 10k x 3 for each piece of armor...

the apply time could last for just 5 mins, you buy your samples, mix what you think you want, try it, and see how it looks.

everyone WINS. dye prices would not shift at all. you still wont get perminate dye without a price, you get to try out colors cheaply, and the price you pay is, once sample evaporates/wears off/smears off you go back to undyed armor(anything you had on it prior will be gone)

how bout anet making a website that would comletely show any character in any armor and you can freely mix and match armor all you want (or possibly in game)...point is, it wouldnt JUST be testing...but you could play with it ahead of time so that you knew what you wanted.

a "Dye Preview" window would be nice. Free of charge, just add a little "Preview" button, and a window would come up much like the Guild Cape screen! I <3 it.

But 1gp for all dyes? I'd get tired of seeing black.

The reason some of these dyes cost a lot is because they are rare. I do agree that black dye seems to cost too much, but that's the point. If you want black dye you have to save for it. It shows that you actually have something. I mean you cant show off your weapons in towns so all you have is your dyed armor, cape, and titles. Having black 15k armor IMO looks way better than FOW armor and it costs less. And to the people that said black dye is uncreative, so is every other dye, black dye just cost more. I think that they should have a set "high price" on certain dyes.

And all the dyes did not start at 1g, so where are you getting your facts?

Actually it started at 100g. Thats teh lowest any dye can go to in price.
