I've still yet to ever see a black dye drop in almost 400 hours of gameplay.

I found my first black dye yesterday and I've been playing this through all the beta weekends and WPE. I was amazed.

Hm, I think you just got lucky. So far, on my Me/N Miirak, I constantly get dye drops, although they're mainly orange and green. Be happy you have some now, since it seems that the black dye disappeared altogether off the dye trader's sell list. :P

Dropped off the trader's list? Huh? You sure it just isn't at the bottom and you need to scroll down a bit?

If it IS gone, that will make the prices -really- skyrocket and people will really horde!

its true actually. there have been a few days where they wasn't actually a black dye to buy. since they only sell the dyes that players sell to them, you can assume that people are using the dyes now more frequently than before. So that's why on some days black dye prices have even jumped to 10k per. people are not hording them exactly, they are just using them. black dyes are now to precious to just sell to a npc. they either use them, or sell them to a player so THEY can use them.

Thus destroying Black Dye's usage as a Gold Sink. o_o

Actually they seem to drop erratically for me

got 1 black yesterday for 5 total blacks

so far my best was a double drop from a mob which gave me a black and a silver

next best was a double silver drop from the same area and no i wont tell as it has already been nerfed twice

i only got red and blue there yesterday with the black coming out of the blue from a group that has never dropped dye before

Lucky git, no the drops are random. You should sell them all off, they going for 7K average at the moment!

in over 455 hours of gameplay I only saw one drop and I got it recently. Infact I got it the same day the patch released and messed up the merchant prices. now I can't even sell it for 10k BAH!
