Mini-FAQ about dyes (~Antoni Di Acquisto)

Q: How do you mix dye?

A: You must double click a vial of dye and apply it to another vial of dye to get a new vial labelled "mixed." [HINT: Applying one color over another color on an item will NOT mix the colors, it just applies the new color as if there was no color already on the armor.]

Q: Does mixing dye with dye remover produce a different color?

A: No. If you mix dye remover with dye you will have a slightly transparent color, so you will see the original (undyed) color of the armor through the new color you applied. [HINT: That's why people think it makes a new color, but it depends on the original (undyed) color of the armor.]

Q: Does it matter what order I mix the dyes?

A: It does not matter what order you mix 2 dyes. However, if you want to mix more than 2 you need to know how the mix happens. Each time you mix dye, it treats it as 2 dyes and you get the result based on which 2 you mix. Therefore, if you mix Silver + Yellow, then add Orange, then add Silver again, it will not look the same as if you mix Silver + Yellow, then mix Orange + Silver, then put the two mixed dyes together.

Q: Why does the same formula produce a different color than I expected, or a different color on me than it does on my friend? [Armor only. Not including Chaos Axe, etc.]

A: The dye will look different depending on the material it is applied to. Imagine putting dye on cloth, silk, leather and metal. It will have a different appearance on each of these materials.

Q: Does it matter which color I double-click on and apply to the other?

A: From in-game testing, applying Yellow to Green or Green to Yellow looks exactly the same. (Lime Green) I have seen no evidence that using one color first has an effect except when mixing more than 2 dyes. (See question above)

I hope this helps everyone understand dyes. I like all the posted screenshots of experiments with colors on different armor types. It would be nice if some more experimentation was done to find other colors. There is no need to dye complete sets for experimentation, but try to pick something with a large dye-able area so the color is easily seen.

[Gomezie]

Wow... took some while to understand.. but that is cool :)

[Knigh7s]

Sweet. Nice Work. much better than the others ive seen around!

[Tsukiyomi]

Thanks for the thing on Necros scars!

[Ancalagon06]

is it possible to sticky this?

[fuzzybulldozer]

i dyed my chaos axe silver, and it turned a bright glowing white. i would have preferred glowing black a thousand times over..

[Saphic The Unclean]

same here on the chaos axe

[Da Cebuano]

What about dying the mursaat hammer? I've been getting some funky results off it too. I'm trying to figure out how to turn it gold.

[Oryaka Drake]

This post is definately worth of a sticky or something similar.. great work putting this together!!!

[Indigo]

Very nice charts! Very informative...

[zman_acura]

sweeeet this chart is fantastic!

[telarin]

what happens when you dye the chaos axe with black dye?

[FrogDevourer]

Black gives you a pure white chaos axe.

[velvetbunny]

Ok i tried the Yellow + Blue + Purple and came up with a pinkish dye. But when applied to monk tatoos its brown. Does the necro scars chart apply to monk tatoos as well? Or if someone could make it simple for me and tell me how to dye monk tatoos a light pink that would be easier. ;)

[DiStUrBeD_AzN]

Anyone know how Crimson Silver looks?

[hyste]

any1 knows the combination for bronze?

[Kashrlyyk]

Anyone know how Crimson Silver looks?

Same question here! What color is Crimson Silver?

[elenna]

any1 knows the combination for bronze?

Depends on your armor. I've seen bronze from Yellow + Orange on Warriors and Necros. And bronze from Green + Orange on Mesmers.

[Void Assassin]

Silver on chaos axe = white
what can make it a glowing black

[Wings of Illusion]

FrogDevourer... you my friend... are a genious.. a genious with no life... JUST KIDDING. Helluva job!

[Thrain Longblade]

I did silver on my chaos axe as well and it too turned white. I guess I just dont understand the chart... :confused:

[Myth Osis]

I must be dumb i just dont get it.... Dye my monk tats .....

red i get red
blue i get blue
green i get green
yellow i get green <<< WTF!

[ZD_kusanagi]

i used dye remover on all my monk armor, then threw on pink dye.. and it turned my armor brown! wtf! that was a hefty waste of money!

[The Maddog]

use dye remover first i bet

[Niare]

I just tried to do the Crimson Silver color on knights armor...and it looked crimson silver in the vial, but when I applied it, it looked kind of blueish. Le sigh...

[Ronduwil]

I had a similar experience. I mixed Purple+Silver+Green+Silver to get a Crimson Silver bottle of dye. Unfortunately, when I applied the dye to my Pyromancer set, it came out a light turquoise! :confused:

I will definitely take these combinations with a large grain of salt in the future.

[Barbasta Masta]

i applied green and blue and got my favorite color, turqoise. It looks great on Platemail, but the funny part is I like change, and I might just do that.

[BigTru]

What color do you get if you dye your Necro Scars black or silver???

[Mariena Feladon]

Can anyone enlighten me on the bows?

If I put silver on a bow, it turns out black. If I put black on a bow, it turns out black.
But blue is blue, yellow is (although darkish) yellow. Red is red.

How the heck do I get a white/silver(ish) bow?

[Amei Leng]

Orange on Plate turns it copper

[HemmoHohto]

orange+green turns to brown, not greenish like in the color chart.
And it looks cool in knights.

[Reiden Argrock]

make sure you are using dye remover on your armor first, if you don't then your armor will already have a dye applied to it, adding another color to your mixture

[Mariena Feladon]

make sure you are using dye remover on your armor first, if you don't then your armor will already have a dye applied to it, adding another color to your mixture

... Which is not true.

[Aria]

Mariena is right. Adding a new batch of dye to an already dyed armor will dye the armor as if the armor had ever been dyed in the first place existed. The new dye will completely override the old dye.

[Krank]

The chaos axe thing is wrong, THIS is a chaos axe dyed silver

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y157/Cquixoticc/gw099.jpg

[TrueRush]

Silver on chaos axe = white
what can make it a glowing black

silver dye on choas axe = white but the surrounding portion has yellow and orange hue to it.

black dye on choas axe = pure white.

[TrueRush]

i forgot to mention it has a purple hue to hence why i opted for black dye.

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b365/TrueRush/gwblackdyedchaos1.jpg

[Krank]

So in conclusion, there is no way your gonna get a black chaos axe

[DSey]

Hi,

Do you also have to take into account the natural colour of a specific armour when applying dye? The warrior platemail has a standard blue colour, for example. Does that influence the end result when I would apply a certain colour dye?

[heist23]

a chart showing the effects of dye remover on dyes would be helpful. i've already found that silver+dye remover= white-ish tan, and red+dye remover=dark pink.

[DarkWasp]

What it means is, if you dye the axe silver, it glows more on the outside. Givving it a bright fuzzy look. Dying it black will make it glow more on the inside making it look more concentrated.

[Deltu]

I think these charts are a little too confusing. Cant you just have red+necro scar=pink or something?

[Apoc]

From the Chaos Axe color chart, it looks like I have to mix a Purple and Blue dye to get a 'gold' color.

Someone can confirm this?
Thanks.

[Krank]

Well given the current dye skyrocket in prices, i wont be doing any more experiments on my axe

[raven214]

I saw a chart somewhere that suggests the order in which you mix dyes affects the resulting color.

Ex:
blue + green = A
green + blue = B

Is this true?

[Sereng Amaranth]

I want a yellow necro scar to go with my yellow necrotic armor. I think I need turquoise for this. Can anyone confirm?

[FFF_WarRaven]

don't forget to take into account the enviroment lighting, some colors look a bit different in some areas depending on the reflection of the sky and lighting, sorta like in ouposts 15k platemail armor looks like crap, but outside it's very detailed, you'll never get a black chaos axe, and you'll never get white tattoo patterns, tho wtf is INK used for...nothing i can see as of yet as tattoo's are done with INK not DYE in the real world and i cannot see any other use for INK.

Black on a nec gives you black, mine has all black from adding black.

not sure if u can get yellow on a nec, seems the face scarr default color is purple.

:::End Transmission:::

[DergeDraconis]

Also the Blue+Purple and Purple+Blue both give you the same color, a medium purple/bluish color not Dark Blue as stated.

Is it the actual color of the armor thats causing these deviations? for instance the armor I dyed was a light brown (15k saintly monk)

P.S. I used dye remover on the armor before I dyed

[DiStUrBeD_AzN]

Crimson Silver has little to no effect on Tatoo Armor for monk.

[Winterlaurel]

I am confused. How do yellow blue and purple make Light Pink. Has anybody tried this? o.O

Hearts,
Winter

[envee]

I've just mixed what is supposedly lite pink it and stuck it on my monk -_-;;

Nothing has happened except a unnoticable darker color.

You can barely notice the change and it is NOT lite pink >.<

Thankee thankee. :) I'll probably mix a purple, red, and two silvers.

[Khyron the Dark]

The other day, my wife dyed her flatbow (brown) silver, it turned it black with a silver handle.... uh, did I miss something??

[Bedlight]

i want to dye my pyromancer armor lime green, anyone know the combination? and if it actually looks like lime green on the armor? i read all the posts in this thread and turns out that the dye color usually isnt the same when applied, so, im asking for a definate, if anyone knows.

[Rossaroni]

Try Green + Green + Silver? Green + Silver will get you a sort of minty green I'd think, so if you added more green, you might get...lime green?

[Winterlaurel]

Try Green + Green + Silver? Green + Silver will get you a sort of minty green I'd think, so if you added more green, you might get...lime green?

I would do Green Green Yellow Silver

[The Great Al]

i have NO idea how to read this..is there any way to make black dye without using black?

[Bedlight]

i have NO idea how to read this..is there any way to make black dye without using black?
if there was, i dont think black dye would cost 9k or however much it costs now. unless there really is a way but only a certain few know.

[The Pirate]

i dont understtand how to use this wholethong, can someone explain how to please?

[Apoc]

It's pretty simple:

The outer circle is the dye you will use to get the color you want (inner circle).

ie: If you want to dye your Necro scar in red, you need a green dye.
Or if you want to dye the scar in purple, you'll need a yellow-orange mix.

Same thing for the Chaos Axe:
If you want to dye yours in red, simply dye it with blue. :)

*Although the Silver dye on the CA won't give you Black.

[Cunning]

Hello, I started to buy my 15k enchanters armor a few hours ago (only 2 pieces so far), but the other dye charts in this thread didn't really seem reliable to me.

So I decided to do my own testing by mixing colours in Photoshop using the blending modes. After compairing the various blending options I decided that 'Overlay' resulted in the most sensible/realistic combination. So I made one layer of green over a layer of blue, then I changed the blending mode to overlay and I got a teal colour. That just happened to be the colour I was going for, so I bought a green and blue dye from the dye trader and applied the green dye to the blue dye - just how I did in Photoshop, I then applied the dye to my shirt and to my pleasent surprise it turned into the colour I mixed in Photoshop.

So going by that experiment, I made a complete chart consisting of 64 colours in total (not including default colours), whereby each dye is mixed with every other dye once.

I've uploaded the table to my website so you can all use it and hopefully provide feedback and your own results. Please be aware that this chart is almost completely theoretical, and the colours may not appear identical in-game.

If you have a browser that is better than IE, go here:
http://www.estorm.com.au/gallery/gwcolours/chart.htm

If you're using Internet Explorer, you can view the chart here:
http://www.estorm.com.au/gallery/gwcolours/ie.htm

In any browser other than IE, search for a colour you like, then move your mouse pointer over the colour, the combination for that colour will be displayed.

[dansamy]

Thank you for the link to the complete chart. I screwed up my monk's tan tats trying to get them lighter. I was able to fix him back using that chart.

[Bedlight]

lime green is green+yellow+green+another green

[maraxusofk]

Hey cunning, awesome chart u got there. I really like how i was able to see that mixing black with black gets u ultra black. Oh, frog, props on your awesome chart too.

[DergeDraconis]

So silver+silver almost nets white dye, unless my brightness/contrast is off.

[Cunning]

So silver+silver almost nets white dye, unless my brightness/contrast is off.
I included every 1x1 combination so I could have a complete chart, whether you will get the same results or not I don't know.

I would be interested to see how accurate my predictions are though.

[Anton H]

Has anyone tried the silver - Black glowing axe after using dye remover to clear it first?

[Apoc]

So silver+silver almost nets white dye, unless my brightness/contrast is off.

A few weeks ago, I was in Droknar and saw this monk with 'white' dyed tatoos.

I needed a cool green for my platemail

everyone in the game says to me..nice colors lol
i realy like my colors

[yehanoha]

A few weeks ago, I was in Droknar and saw this monk with 'white' dyed tatoos.

http://img358.imageshack.us/img358/9472/gw0794cj.jpg


I believe the "white dye" you see on this monk is actually silver dye. The reason it looks white is because the skin color of the monk is dark so when you apply silver dye to the monk tatoos, the color appears white. I've tested this out - my pve monk has light skin with silver dyed CHEST tatoos; my pvp monk has dark skin and silver dyed CHEST tatoos also....notice the difference in color even though I used the same dye color.

[Sieless]

Ok i tried the Yellow + Blue + Purple and came up with a pinkish dye. But when applied to monk tatoos its brown. Does the necro scars chart apply to monk tatoos as well? Or if someone could make it simple for me and tell me how to dye monk tatoos a light pink that would be easier. ;)

I second that, I'm going through the same delema.

[Sieless]

i used dye remover on all my monk armor, then threw on pink dye.. and it turned my armor brown! wtf! that was a hefty waste of money!


Did the same thing... I've wasted SO much dye trying to find out how to dye it pink... It would be easier if you have a vial of dye thats a specific color.. then your armor/Tatt's or whatever will turn out to be the same color as the color it is in the vial... It's rediculous and I wish they would change it!!!

[Wotan]

Anybody know the mixture for White Dye?

[RyuuTenshi]

It seems like the dyes don't always colour your armour correctly. I got the crimsom silver for my pyromancer armour, but when I put dyed it, it wasn't even red! My armour ended up blue with a hint of green. Lucky for me, I liked the colour or else I would've wasted a lot of gold. Anet should change it so the dyed armour comes out relatively the same colour as the dye.

[Virgil Lemort]

Hey does anyone know how to make white dye im tryin to find out so i can put it on my 15k armor for my ranger lata Virg
P.S or anything that looks similar.(besides just plain silver dye) :D

[Kobalt29]

Does anyone know how to make perfectly skin blended dye, cuz the monk tatoos are gay and i want to make them transparent so it looks like i have nothing on =D

Note: The order in which you combine the Dyes does not effect the outcome of the Color. Red+Blue will give you the same color as Blue+Red; and Blue+Orange+Green is the same is Blue+Green+Orange. I assume this to also be true for the 4 Dye mixes, but I have yet to test it.

I hope to eventually add the Black Dye mixes, but they are kind of expensive so it will be some time before I have enough gold saved to buy all those Black Dyes.

Hello,

please - can anybody help me, cause I'm getting seriously frustrated now.

I tried many combinations of blue, green and silver, to get a really bright and shiny turquoise for my monk fissure armor. But I must say: I failed... :(
I've seen the colour on different screenshots but even the colour table in this Thread doesn't help me getting to it. Please if there's anybody out there who knows how to get this bright turquoise - help me...

I believe that would be either a blue, green, blue combo, or a blue, purple, blue combo, not sure, but the best thing is that blue, green and purple are pretty cheap now. ;)

This is awesome... but it is kind of frustrating at the same time. The color differences are so subtle that I cannot determine the true pink :( Which was the truest pink you found?

[Scutilla]

Can anyone tell me where the original posting for Ensign's chart is, or how he made it? I've been comparing the colors to screenshots of dyed armor (specifically, the monk's armor from here (http://gwvault.ign.com/static.php?page=2dye)), and it seems to be the correct way of determining dye colors. I've been trying to extrapolate it to 3 and 4 colors, but it would help a lot if I knew how the original chart was made.

(EDIT) Glen, apparently Monk Fissure armor is one of those weird ones... according to this pic (http://tel.eohjay.net/images/fow/monkfemale2.jpg), the color you're looking for is orange. :confused:

[DerelictBedtime]

Anybody know how to match the color of Drok's Plate armor? I'm trying to get my Ascalon pieces (currently dyed silver) to blend better. Thanks!

[eightyfour-onesevenfive]

(EDIT) Glen, apparently Monk Fissure armor is one of those weird ones... according to this pic (http://tel.eohjay.net/images/fow/monkfemale2.jpg), the color you're looking for is orange. :confused:
Oh yes, it's weird indeed. Extraordinarily weird is the fact that while looking the same the different kinds of monk fow armor dye differently. I.e. wanderer's fow armor dyes normal (red dye will result in red armor) but ascetic's fow armor dyes off-color (red dye will result in dark green, like in the picture above).

[Scutilla]

Hmm... so does that mean that fissure armor dyes the same way that it's Droknar's version does (if I remember correctly that's how normal ascetic armor dyes too)?

[Khadgar of Dalaran]

i take it u can't make a black chaos axe? >_>

*also it would be nice if GW had a Dye Mixer (like a crafter) so u can give him/her the dyes u want mixed and some gold (like 50gold) and he'll/she'll give u the possible combinations from the dyes u gave him/her :rolleyes:

I believe I have found the formula for the highly-desired white dye for armor. Since this seems to be such a highly-desired dye, I am sharing my research (although the temptation to sell bottles for 10k apiece is strong :p )

Original screencap of dye (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y51/Scutilla/GW%20SF/whitedye.jpg)

(Thanks to Archery Person Dude for showing his white dye and dyed armor)

15k Druid's dyed Silver (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y51/Scutilla/GW%20SF/dyeS.jpg)

My 15k Druid's with a silver vest. On this armor it looks pretty good, but we can do better.

Druid's dyed Yellow+Silver (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y51/Scutilla/GW%20SF/dyeYS.jpg)

Silver+Yellow produces a white with a yellowish tint, or a very pale yellow, depending on how you look at it. And for those order nitpickers, it was silver dye on yellow bottle.

Druid's dyed Yellow+Silver+Silver (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y51/Scutilla/GW%20SF/dyeYSS.jpg)

Adding a second silver makes the yellow even paler. (Silver on yellow, then another silver on the mix.)

Druid's dyed Yellow+Silver+Silver+Silver (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y51/Scutilla/GW%20SF/dyeYSSS.jpg)

Finally, adding a third silver gives pure white. Yes, I realize that I am standing in brighter light, I miscalculated how much dye I needed and had to move to the trader- I will try to get a more consistant comparison later on. Also, I know that ranger armor is not the best for experimenting with mixes on- I'll try it on other classes once I get the funds (this cost me only 3 plat, but I am a bit poor at the moment). Feel free to post your own pics if you try it.

So in short, Yellow + 3 silvers = white. Enjoy. :D

Try removing other dyes with the dye remover before applying a new dye. Sometimes it screws around with new dye applications. test it with a cheeper dye just to make sure that that was the problem.

Try Purple+Green+Green. Purple usually makes things darker than Blue. Thats assuming it works sort of like the monk armor.

Dont u guys hate it when u dye a weapon or shield and cant see the difference ?
i really dont understand why one weapon can be dyed and the other cant.

[Antoni Di Acquisto]

I have seen a lot of confusion on the boards about how dye works. I am pretty sure I have sorted it out from all the conflicting messages and also from in-game testing.

Here is a mini-FAQ about dyes:

Q: How do you mix dye?

A: You must double click a vial of dye and apply it to another vial of dye to get a new vial labelled "mixed." [HINT: Applying one color over another color on an item will NOT mix the colors, it just applies the new color as if there was no color already on the armor.]

Q: Does mixing dye with dye remover produce a different color?

A: No. If you mix dye remover with dye you will have a slightly transparent color, so you will see the original (undyed) color of the armor through the new color you applied. [HINT: That's why people think it makes a new color, but it depends on the original (undyed) color of the armor.]

Q: Does it matter what order I mix the dyes?

A: It does not matter what order you mix 2 dyes. However, if you want to mix more than 2 you need to know how the mix happens. Each time you mix dye, it treats it as 2 dyes and you get the result based on which 2 you mix. Therefore, if you mix Silver + Yellow, then add Orange, then add Silver again, it will not look the same as if you mix Silver + Yellow, then mix Orange + Silver, then put the two mixed dyes together.

Q: Why does the same formula produce a different color than I expected, or a different color on me than it does on my friend? [Armor only. Not including Chaos Axe, etc.]

A: The dye will look different depending on the material it is applied to. Imagine putting dye on cloth, silk, leather and metal. It will have a different appearance on each of these materials.

Q: Does it matter which color I double-click on and apply to the other?

A: From in-game testing, applying Yellow to Green or Green to Yellow looks exactly the same. (Lime Green) I have seen no evidence that using one color first has an effect except when mixing more than 2 dyes. (See question above)

I hope this helps everyone understand dyes. I like all the posted screenshots of experiments with colors on different armor types. It would be nice if some more experimentation was done to find other colors. There is no need to dye complete sets for experimentation, but try to pick something with a large dye-able area so the color is easily seen.

Thanks!

[EternalTempest]

Something I've found, if you want to look diffrent but not spend money on dyes, use dye remover on your "stock" armor. It's already pre-painted.

Female Ele crafted armor is a purple underneath.

[Fezz]

I have updated my Chart to include all the 3 Dye mixes that use Black, they have also been put on armor.


The chart now covers all the 3 Dye mixes. Enjoy.

[Savio]

Dammit...Valareos's site is down right now. I guess I'll have to shell out my own money for dyes.

[Spirital]

Well if anyone ever wanted pink dye on a monk (look at my avatar), the combination is grey+red.

By gray, do you mean silver, or silver+black? The mix looks like silver+red to me, although I'd have to check Fezz's pics...

Thanks!

Yes it does if you use more than one, most colors when used with 3 dye removers create goldish or bronzish color.

[Asplode]

Let me clear up the confusion with dye remover: It basically works like a normal dye, just that it defaults to your class's armor. Here's what I've discovered.

Ele: Purple
Necro: Red
Warrior: Yellow
Monk: Yellow (blue on tattoos)
Ranger: Yellow
Mesmer: Green

And well from what I understand, the FoW armors have a different default color but I haven't gotten to test on them. :P

Green and orange.

[Scutilla]

Hmmm can someone make a dye chart in which 3+more dyes being mixed at same time :)

*cough* see Fezz's charts, earlier in this thread... As far as I know that's the only attempt of making a comprehensive chart for mixes with greater than two dyes (and it's very well done, I might add).

I've mentioned this on a couple other threads, but sometime in the future I hope to make available a program I'm working on that lets you see the color for any mix as they appear on all armors- that won't be for quite a while though, so until then we have Fezz's charts of leetness :p

[Scutilla]

Great job, this looks really comprehensive, should help a lot of people out. Just a couple of things....

Q: Does it matter what order I mix the dyes?

A: It does not matter what order you mix 2 dyes. However, if you want to mix more than 2 you need to know how the mix happens. Each time you mix dye, it treats it as 2 dyes and you get the result based on which 2 you mix. Therefore, if you mix Silver + Yellow, then add Orange, then add Silver again, it will not look the same as if you mix Silver + Yellow, then mix Orange + Silver, then put the two mixed dyes together.

Not true- I thought this for a long while myself (you may have actually gotten that info when I erroreonusly posted it on another dye thread :( ). According to Fezz, the guy who did the complete 3-dye mix charts, dye order never matters, and I've seen this to be true in my own experimentations. Good thing, too, since it makes mixing a good deal simpler. :)

Yes it does if you use more than one, most colors when used with 3 dye removers create goldish or bronzish color.

Are you using the mix on a warrior armor? Warrior armor's base color is yellow, so a mix with 3 dye removers will seem really close to yellow on it. If you put the mix on, say, necromancer armor, I'm betting it would appear red.

I'd also like to point out that dye mixing isn't always consistent. First of all, necromancer scar armor and chaos axes dye completely differently from normal- FrogDevourer's got a good diagram for it here (http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=25784). Monk tattoos might also dye similarly, I haven't experimented with monk armor so I don't know. I've also seen some Fissure of Woe armors dye very strangely.

Second of all, a couple of mixes give vastly different colors on different armors: specifically, yellow+blue (http://tel.eohjay.net/images/dyecharts/3dye/dyeyellowbluearmor.JPG) and green+purple (http://tel.eohjay.net/images/dyecharts/3dye/dyegreenpurplearmor.JPG). Still trying to figure out why this is so, but mixer beware when making mixes involving those colors.

Overall, great job- hope this helps a lot of people with their armor dying. :D

[Fezz]

According to Fezz, the guy who did the complete 3-dye mix charts, dye order never matters, and I've seen this to be true in my own experimentations. Good thing, too, since it makes mixing a good deal simpler. :)

I will vouche that the order does not matter so long as you just add 1 Dye at a time, but if you do like was mentioned(2 sets of 2 Dyes mixes) I have no idea what will happen(so I will go test to get another opinion).

Edit: Did a few samples to test if mixing pairs of Dyes gave a different result than mixing single Dyes.

Blue+Green+Red+Purple = http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/7172/12in.png

(Blue+Green)+(Red+Purple) = http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/6721/27rb.png

(Green+Red)+(Blue+Purple) = http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/2338/38iv.png

So this means you can combine your Dyes in any way your heart desires and you will always get the same thing know matter how you choose to mix them, assuming you use the correct Dyes.

[Jetdoc]

I'm assuming that since the underlying armor "mixes" with the dye you apply to it, it is almost impossible to make either Platemail or Knights armor lose its metallic tint through any combination of dyes...

[Makkert]

I'm impressed. Just saw the extensive work on the various dyecombinations on the monk armor and the bottle chart.
That must have cost a pretty penny.

Thanks to all that worked on it, it must have taken some time.

Well, my only advice. Spend a good amount of time researching on this forum. The Advanced Search option works again, so thats a start. I have seen numerous people with hot pink colors on their armor in this forum.

[konstantineRO]

well i ahve been trying to dye my mesmers armor light pink as has some others in this forum. ive tried many dye mixes and to no avail i still seem to get a reddish or purplish color. ive tried the mixes: Red+Silver+Silver = a pink non the less but looks very washed out and bleached, Red+Silver = came out a sort of `rosy` color which is the closest ive gotten tot he color i want, Red+Purple = a reddish purple, Red+Purple+Purple = too purple, Red+Purple+Silver = a lighter purple, Red+Purple+Silver+Silver = another lighter version of purple, Red+Dye remover = a light brownish color, Red+Purple+purple+Silver = looked alot like the Red+Purple+Silver dye mix. After all of these attempts to get the light/soft pink i wanted(the color Mixu had for her skirt) i was wondering if there was some dye mixture that would actually work on mesmers armor taht would acutally turn it the right pink.

[Maxiemonster]

My wife wants to make her boots on her m/mo white. They are green now. How does she make them white?

It depends what armor she's trying to turn white. There's no white dye, so white is quite hard, though, the silver dye gets close on some armors. Try experimenting yourself a little bit, or be more specific on what armor she's trying to dye, maybe someone else tried the same thing and got up with a way to dye it white.

[harshal]

good job on that chart but im still lookin for some way of making a good white, i mixed yellow+silver+silver+silver and i still got a silver color

Red + Purple then apply to armor

Dye Remover applied to purple dye then apply to armor

I have hot pink on my Elementalist. I just did red+purple (applied the purple to the red i think... not that it matters). Didnt bother with dye remover on the armour either. Warrior armour might dye differently since it's metal.

Maybe its a super domass question, but euhm.. How do you mix two of the same colours??:confused:
I just got into dyecountry so im not very used to it yet :o

[nunix]

I've been messing with dye combinations off and on.. well.. basically since the game's come out. Even with the nifty little diagram at the top of the thread (which, incidentally, seems.. not right?) I've never been able to hit the combo I want: a nice, bright/solid orange. Is this because the default is red (i.e. flesh-tone scars) and so I'll -never- be able to get what I want? I can get super-bright of basically everything EXCEPT that, it's.. horribly frustrating! ;__;

I too am trying to achieve a nice pink for my mesmer. The best colour I have come accross in my mixing sessions so far is purple-blue-purple, which gives a colour not quite purple and not quite blue.

[Bubba Lips]

yes i hope i dont ruin anyon'es business by telling:

3 silvers added all to 1 dye remover

(tried 1 and it was just a lighter silver)

All 3 to one dye remover is a pure white

[designerheadache]

Try that dye chart instead ;)

http://guildwiki.org/wiki/Dye

The link towards the bottom of the first post is more complete than the chart in that link(that website doesn't like, so I can't replace the chart that is there).

Unless you are talking about the one with a few of the 4 Dye mixes.

But either way since the armor affects the color, having the pic of the vial is kind of useless.

[DHTJohnnyRotten]

I'm new to guild wars as of last Friday. So this is a super noob question.

When you mix two dyes, do you end up with just one of the new color? Or two of the new color?

As in... if i have a red and a yellow and i mix them, do they turn into just one orange, or do you have two oranges?

Seems realistic to have two... as in you have two bottles, slosh them back and forth. then still have two bottles with mixed colors.

[Fezz]

When you mix Dyes you only get on bottle from it.

If you want Black you will have to buy a vial of Black Dye, there is no way of making Black.

Edit: Started working on the 2 Dye mixes on all the Armors. Here (http://img357.imageshack.us/img357/3739/2dyesonarmortatoowanderer7qm.jpg) is the first set.

if there was, i dont think black dye would cost 9k or however much it costs now. unless there really is a way but only a certain few know.

Well, I had a theroy, though I'm not sure it would work.

Black is a color made by mixing all of the colors on the color wheel, so maybe, if someone tried mixing every dye color (except black of course) it might turn out black. If anyone has guts enough to try, please let us know the results.

Won't work as the maximum number of dyes you can mix is 4.

[nunix]

By the way, having messed with scar dyes some: the image seems -off- slightly for Head scars, and body scars dye normally. This'll get put on guildwiki when it comes back up, but it's worth noting that, as far as I can tell, there is -no way- to get bright red or orange scars. GW uses red as a kind of "fleshtone" scar, so it'll never stand out, like the other dyes do. This is.. spectacularly frustrating, but you might be able to get a red-y color depending on your skin tone.

Same thing here. I spent lots of coin trying to get a bright necro body scar coloring. The monks tats dye great, but not the necros.

I have an insightful holy staff of shelter that i want brown (dark brown) , so I followed the charts and did red + green + green, but when I apply it on my staff it gives me some weird purple color :/

anyone knows how I could get a brown staff? :(

hey Fezz thanks for the dye chart on the 15k mesmer enchanter armor, that really helps me decide what color to make my armor. Keep up the good work. O and can anyone show me what jewled staffs (version 2) would look like dyed?:D

Don't want to be mean, but the chart on the first page is wrong for the necro scars. When I dyed my necro scars with yellow, they did not turn purple but instead a bright yellow. They pretty much get dyed the color u use. :) :)

Yeah, Frog's charts are a bit inaccurate- a chart for the chaos axe is now up, use that for all your axe-dying needs ;)

As for scars, I've heard that 15k tattoos and scars dye differently than the Droknar versions, but we've only done Drok tattoos so far and neither versions of the scars, so I can't say for sure yet. We'll get to them eventually, though.

There is an updated version of that chart on the first post, its down towards the bottom.

@Blue, you can try using Orange on your Mesmer's armor, that is the color used for that pic you posted. But I doubt it will turn out the same. As for a pink color I have no idea right now, I have no experience with FoW armors yet.

[Lambentviper]

I have a fow mesmer armor, and i'd like to dye it pink

Try a purple+red. and maybe a purple+red+dye remover.

But i would like to know why anet decided to make the necro scar and chaos axe colors so complicated. Why cant blue=blue, and red=red?

[VGJustice]

I'd like to thank everyone for all the work on the charts, dye combos, and examples. It really helped when I was trying to make my own dye.

I tried some different things on the armor I've picked (15k Drakescale), and I'm starting to believe that Ranger armor in general takes most dye combinations pretty well.

Yellow + Silver + Silver + Silver made this really pretty soft white, like Eggshell.
Blue + Green + Silver + Silver made a pretty nice light teal.
Blue + Green + Blue + Silver made this:

Nice! I've got some female Ascetic's monks tattoo armour from granite citadel... I'll be experimenting on getting as close to white as possible on that. Thats on the palest skin colour there is (I'm assuming skin colour affects outcome for the tattoos).

If I can help in any way, feel free to drop me a line :) (The Mo in game is "Spinal The Healer" if you feel like spamming me :P)

I'd like to know the same thing. I spent 50k on dyes mixing to try to get white, only to find out that just silver is closer than anything that I made.

Also, I'm wondering what Black+Dye remover+Black+Black would make.. I want some pitch black armor! Black dye just isn't black enough for me :p

I did some testing trying to get white on a female monk tattoos on the lightest skin colour selectable (asthetic from Granite Citadel).
-(Silver) comes out light grey
-(((Silver+Yellow)+Silver)+Silver) comes out lighter yellow
-(((Silver+Green)+Silver)+Silver) comes out very light green
-(((Silver+Blue)+Silver)+Silver) comes out like a very light version of the undyed armour
-(((Silver+Silver)+Silver)+Silver) comes out light grey

At the end I gave up and bought 5 black dyes and dyes all my tattoos black :P Can grab pics if you want...

Spinal

P.s. a "common" white formula is (((Silver+Yellow)+Silver)+Silver) this works well on warrior armour...

You can't... thats where mixing order comes into play... (thats why I have parentheses, thats the mixing-order :P)

Basically, for (((Y+S)+S)+S) means:
Step1 : Mix Yellow + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED
Step2 : Mix Mixed + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED'
Step3 : Mix Mixed' + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED''

You can't directly mix Silver and Silver to my knowledge, (nor Black and Black that I know of...)

EDIT:

Just some mix ratios for the mathematicians:
Step1 : Mix Yellow + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED (50%S, 50%Y)
Step2 : Mix Mixed + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED' (25%Y, 75%S)
Step3 : Mix Mixed' + Silver, get 1 vial MIXED'' (12.5%Y, 87.5%S)

Trivia! And by "trivia" I mean "please know this thing, it is driving me crazy";
the definition of two nouns:

aesthetic: A guiding principle in matters of artistic beauty and taste; artistic sensibility

ascetic: A person who renounces material comforts and leads a life of austere self-discipline, especially as an act of religious devotion.

aesthetic != ascetic

I'd like to ask if anyone knows how to make necro scar armor black. I tried black dye on it today and it turned this whitish/grey color, and I had already bought 4 blac dyes :mad: :mad: :mad:

p.s.- the other scar armor thing wasnt wrong, it was for the face scar. I wasnt thinking about that when I posted before. :p

Here is my mes in a red+red+blue combo, it looks a little more pink in the game itself.

Buy one of a dye, put it in storage, buy another one. Dunno how it affects mixes though.

Anyone know of a whiter color for the mesmer's Enchanter armor from droks??
This pic is of my mes with Yellow+Silver+Silver+Silver on the shirt and legs. In the right light it is truely a creamy white color, and other light makes it look egg shell... Suggestions to make it more pure white? (brighter?)

white dye has a lot of different combinations
some popular ones are:
yellow+silver+silver+silver
blue+silver+silver+silver
dye remover+silver+silver+silver

for any of the combos, you're gonna need 3 silvers

I wasn't going to point this out until we finished the Droknar armors, but I may as well now. I've heard that Ascetic FoW monk armor dyes differently from non-Ascetic FoW armor. We should confirm this, and if it's true we'll need to do 2 charts for Monk FoW armor.

(BTW, I should have the rest of the warrior armor pics for you soon, unless my monk finds a good deal on a staff... I'm trying to split my funds between personal expenses and this project)

I was thinking that that might be the case, since technically like the other monks armors they are made of different materials, so they should Dye differently. A few tests will tell us for sure. Either way I am not too worried, we can handle those specifics as they arrise.

[djroar]

Ok i am a little confused with the simple method of mixing to dyes of the same colour only together. How on earth do i mix silver with just silver? I double clik on my silver dyes, then clik on them again to try and get a mix and ...... nothing? I can't split the same coloured dyes up in my inventory, so I am either missing somthing here or I just don't know? Confused. So I added silver to my armour then another silver on top, but it remains silver as the first post stated. I take it i have to add a different colour first to begin the mix? Any answers on this.

[Venenatus Ensis]

ok djroar i see your problem. first, u can't mix to of the same dyes together. you can however, add two different dyes together and then add the same dye as many times as u would like. the white combo i posted earlier goes like this:
(Silver + Yellow) + Silver + Silver

u have to add the first silver and yellow together before any other silver can be added. Also this has to be done when they are in vials, on armor the dyes replace each other. When u add silver to your armor, u get silver. If u add another silver TO THE ARMOR, u replace the silver that was on there with the silver u just used. got it?

[The Primeval King]

I know that this would be expensive, but I only have 20k and don't want to use it all on this one dye mix. I'm thinking (Black+purple)+black+black.. Would that make it a really dark metallic black? Normal black just isn't good enough for me ^^ By the way, I would be using it on a warrior with 15k platemail armor..

It would be nice if someone tried it and posted a screen

Try just Black+Purple first. If it doesn't work, you're out 7k, if it does, you save 70k by using a cheaper formula. From my experience, mixing three blacks in wouldn't make a noticable difference from pure black.

Good luck getting someone to spend 20k to test it for you, though :p

Venenatus' explanation is correct. Only think I would like to add is that if you do mix two of the same color together (say, red+red), it looks exactly the same as the component color (it does not make the color brighter like some people speculate). However if you add a different color to the mix it will become different.

By the way, Gaile specifically said last night there is no way to get pure white. So there you have it, all you nay-sayers ^_^

[The Primeval King]

Well, I tried Blac+purple.. Looks almost the same as normal purple :(

[Venenatus Ensis]

true, u can't get pure white but u can get some pretty cool lookin variations. theres bone white, holy white, and a dirty white (really light grey).

[Aurek]

Anyone know of a bright red dye mix for warrior dragon? I have tried and tried but to no avail, any help would be very appreciated.

[djroar]

Ok ya'll I have just done some trials and found that you can actually add two of the same dyes together without using anything else. How did i do this, very simply I placed (one) silver dye into storage, then I clicked on another (one) silver in my invintory and added it to the silver (one) in storage and BOOM! Two silvers mixed together by themselves. Now I also noticed that you can actually have the same dye in storage but in seperate boxes. So I suppose you can add them both in there also. Now I know this may change many peoples beleives in dye mixing, but I would hope that this may make way for some better mixes from us all. By the way Silver + Silver remained a silver colour on my 15K plate mail armor and did not turn white as the chart shows, but i have yet to try some other combinations such as dye remover etc. Thanks also to my guild ( TF ) for assisting me.

You could try Red+Blue+Red+Silver. Looking at the pics Red+Blue is a kind of close to pink, so I figure that if you add another Red it will be closer to what you are looking for, and the Silver is there to hopefully brighten it.

But there are no guarntees that the ombination will give you hat you are looking for, but its not too much to spend.

djroar, u just wasted a dye. by adding two of the same color, you get the same color as before. this will not affect dye combos because it is the same as using one of the original dyes.

This sounds like a good idea. My pic of my mes a page or two back is in the combo of red, red, blue (enchanter) - and it is a bright pink with a shade of purple. So adding the silver might help :)

on the necro scar chart there isn't any black or silver - so what would happen if you used a black dye on the necro helm?

You should try Blue+Yellow+Yellow(B+Y might be enough, not sure how "sky" you want your blue). If that doesn't work, you could try Blue+Blue+Silver which should give a deep, but shiny blue.

I can't guarnte that those will you get what you want, but I think you will be happy.

[Le Grinder]

Just asking, is it at all possible to get a nice deep red colour on Knights armour? I've tried as many combinations as I can think of, including black+red dye, and they all come out some version of pink or dark mouve or some other colour which isn't really red at all. :( It all just seems too washed out.

http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/1078/blackandred0xz.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

^ Black and red colouring.... the rest of the armour is purple and green mixed together.

[D3CR3PIT]

does anyone know how to get like A teal or turquise on the 15k platemail set?

[Fezz]

Le Grinder: Have you tried combinations that use 3 Red+something? Red+Purple+Red+Red might be worth trying if you haven't tried it already.

D3CR3PIT: You should try Blue+Green+Green to start and if its not what you are looking for add in the forth Dye to change it slightly(Yellow/Silver for a lighter color, Blue for Darker, or others to make more of an impact on the actual color).

Hope those work for yall. Be sure to post a pic if they turn out how you like.

Orange is looking the best so far i believe, but if i wanted to go the rusty/bronzed colour, green and red is better;

Le Grinder: the quest for nice looking armor is a long and tiresome journey, so when you done post your result for us lazy people.

Maybe I am missing something here...I dyed my Necro scar patterns today with purple dye and beleive it or not they came out purple. Has this changed?

Thanks

[Lady Lozza]

Someone posted a brown for monk tatts a little while back, anyone know the dye combo?

[Murder In China]

Could someone do a dye chart for 15k Necro Scars?

[FrogDevourer]

Added new charts (from Fezz) to OP.

[Le Grinder]

Arrgh, I'm giving up trying to find a nice looking colour for my knights armour...

Green & purple is the best i can do. After spending thousands of gold on it, i think im going to try to upgrade to platemail 15k instead, and see how that turns out.

Um, would it be too much to ask when the OP gets updated next time for the first set of pics to be separated by profession (like the stuff down the bottom) and for the links to be labled male/female accordingly???

I will try to type that up tomorrow so Frog only has to copy and paste.


Edit:
Its updated.

Dunno if this is a good spot for this, if it isn't, could a mod move it to where it's supposed to go please?

Feeling tired of people charging outrageous amount for something you can make yourself for half the price?

Try this:

Hint: Making Gold Dye:
First, mix Orange and Silver to make Set 1. Then mix Set 1 and Yellow to make Set 2. Finally, mix Set 2 and Silver to make Gold Dye (O+S+Y+S).

Haven't tried it myself yet but I did a google on it one time and this one came up several times as the proper mix for gold dye.

earlier today, i sold some candycanes, got myself an extra 100k, and once again broke the 300k line, so i decided to try get a nice lookin colour for my chaos axe.

that's the best white chaos axe i've seen so far, look nice to you guys too? =D

[sno]

wouldn't that just be silver or black?

I'm pretty sure using either silver or black will yield a white like that.

[Reks]

Indeed, silver dye nets a fuzzy white, whereas black dye yields a solid white.

Next time hit Shift while pressing Print Screen in order to get that darn "healing signet" out of your view. Makes for better screencaps.

think you could lose a couple pounds.

[William Sunrider]
