Charr sometimes have some nice dyes. I at least 1 on every other run doing Nolani academy with a W/Mo, really only need a few skills

Mending
Live Vicarously
Bonetties defense
cyclone axe

very easy run to do, just pull back on the lever and the charr almost always come running in at you. Watchout of their wild blow, they will take your stances down fairly quickly, I usually get enough energy before they take bonetties off.

There is no "best place to farm dyes, I usually just solo the griffons and minotars outside of augury rock and on average I get 3-4 dyes a run. There is only 1 dye worth selling and it is black, the rest I get I just give away for free right after my run, all I do is say giving away free dye 1 time and get around 5 PMs immediatly.

you cant farm dyes cause they, like nearly everything else in this game, drop randomly. you just need some luck

Funk_Styles · Dec 25, 2005, 02:33 PM // 14:33

all dyes but black are extremely cheap, so my advice for "dye farming" is to do normal farming and BUY dyes

Minotaur Northern Shiverpeaks. outside the Ice Cave or w/e its called. My guild mate says he gets loads of dyes there. You know how to solo minotaur =). Check any solo warrior guild for griffons its the same.

and Gargoyles (two birds with one stone, heads and dye lol.) Just got a black dye from 'em the other day.

i have gotten all of my blacks (21) from assorted lower level enemies including post sear devourers,gargoyles,stone elementals ,chat,etc.

fastest was at 19 minutes in pre getting skale fins for the belt pouch trade

SincorpDeath · Dec 26, 2005, 05:14 PM // 17:14

in pre, twice i got black dye from gargs and spiders in catacombs. I'd say your best bet is there.

LivingDeadGrrl · Dec 30, 2005, 01:49 AM // 01:49

Y'all make me SICK! I have never... never ever.. gotten a black dye drop. I barely get dye drops, and I've been trying for the past 2 days. I have a blister to prove it! *lol*

My sis gets dye drops all the time. I think someone doesn't like me!

Sk8tborderx · Dec 30, 2005, 11:15 AM // 11:15

I get a black dye about once a week, I solo griffons and hydras a lot so most of them come from them. I have also noticed that I get better drops when I have a lot of gold. Other people I know have said the same thing. Don't go out farming hoping to get a black dye because I know people that have been playing the game for months and havent gotten 1 yet. You usually find what you want when your not looking for it.

Yeah, the game has a mind reading algorithm, it can tell what you want to find!

Here is what I got from a few days of Dye farming outside the ice caves of Shiverpeak. I find the minataurs up here drop dyes more than other items. I also got black but was not going to drop them for the picture just in case I got an Err7 message.

Pinna · Dec 30, 2005, 05:26 PM // 17:26

Aye, I've had pretty good dye drops from the minotaurs outside the ice cave, I used to practice I-Monking up there because it's pretty easy to do even without the full set of 5 runes

I still go up there occassionally with my Ranger just to try and get a few more black dyes.

Gott Wood · Dec 30, 2005, 08:48 PM // 20:48

I play the game alot....in the neighborhood of 30 hours a week. I have only got 1 black die in 7 months of playing.

Not a complaint....just a statement

Minotaur's outside Ice Caves... like, the mission Ice Caves? If so... I've never seen 'em.

if you pay attention there are a exit in the Ice Caves mission zone.

Doctor Rhino · Jan 07, 2006, 04:01 AM // 04:01

No, Ice Tooth Cave west of yaks bend, lvl 10 minotaurs, just go in a circle around the cave area. I farmed that when I was lvl 15, and maybe just because you can kill 10 in 30 seconds, you seem to get alot of dye drops up there. It's where I got my first black drop, too.

master_ranger_matt · Jan 07, 2006, 04:26 AM // 04:26

believe it or not, but i have gotten a black dye drop like every other time i do the great northern wall.

Hey i was wondering where they are and if you have a map of any kind? I would like to farm them in my spare time besides UW and FoW.
