Q:

So does it count as an exploit if one buy say 2 stacks of x dye and use it on two characters in order to get the unId dye refund back when the patch hit?

No. That is intended game behavior.

That’s also why the price of dye rose significantly yesterday.

But in a way you are abusing the system, no?

No, you’re just converting dyes that had a low-no value into a gamble attempt at a new dye.

You can do that right now using the Mystic Forge.

Except the mystic forge doesn’t puke out an unid dye, so it’s not much of a gamble — or at least it wasn’t when common dyes were 2s each. As a result the common dyes are now 50% of a unid dye, roughly (which makes sense given that you need two to get a free unid dye after the patch).

Part of me thinks that someone in ANet was thinking “hey, wanna see something funny? Watch this…”
