Guild Wars 2

Should we open all our unidentified dyes knowing that if we get a duplicate color we can get back an unidentified dye after the feature pack? Or will unidentified dyes price spike (due to lower drop rate) and we’d be better off just selling after the patch?

“If you already have the same dyes unlocked on multiple characters, when you log in on additional characters, you will receive one unidentified dye for each duplicate dye already unlocked on your account”

Personally I’m leaning towards opening them since there will be lower drop rate, but there will also be lower demand (one dye unlocks everything and less needed for gift of color). What do you think?

There are plenty of topics on this forum discussing this. Read them.

My two cents:

Open all of your Unid dyes now. Here was my logic, keeping in mind that I have all common and uncommon dyes unlocked. 1) If you get a duplicate, you get an unid dye back in 3 days. So no loss there. 2) You have a shot at an Abyssal or Celestial (I landed a celestial yesterday). 3) Worst case scenario, I get a rare dye that I don’t have and get to add it to my account-wide pallet.

Mind linking any of them? I did not see a thread on the first two pages of BLTC topics about the use of unidentified dyes before the feature pack so I thought it was worth a thread.

@ froacus. That was my take too, just wondering if someone thinks unid dyes are going to go up ridiculous amounts due to the lower drop rate.

Well apparently I can’t read XD. Thanks Aidan. I can never seem to get the search function on these forums to work.

@mods. Since this is a duplicate topic then feel free to close.
