Guild Wars 2

“Storage was always a factor when it came to dye colors in Guild Wars. The new system would cripple most inventories if we required characters to lug all the dyes around. Fear not! The dye hues themselves will be unlockable through various means, both in-game and out. Once you unlock the color, it will be available across your entire account, not just the individual character.”

Well…. so?
I want all my dyes for my another characters =.=""".

I think this is how the other “account bind dyes” threads should have started.

I do know that we have a thread on this that is around 6-7 pages long.

I still support the request to make them account bound especially since that is how it was intended in the first place.

I’ve read that a Nexon employee has joined ANet’s marketing team or gem store management.

Nexon’s game Mabinogi has dyes that only work once on a single part of a single item.

I’ve connected the dots. It’s a profit thing. :/

I’ve played Mabinogi though, so I actually feel it’s very nice that dyes are permanently owned at all. My mabinogi friends, who are joining the game later this year, are very excited about this dye system and couldn’t care less that it’s not “account bound”.

Different perspectives~

i have received dyes on multiple characters twice now. i’m not sure if it a glitch or not.

A good step forward, should reduce the prices too, since the demand will be less.

I agree however, don’t they have a post like this already? and it has a TON of responses on it. Just sayin…

Yes, they do.

Edit : I haven’t been bumping it much anymore because it seems like the community is half on my side and half on the ’Let’s give them more money for gems’ side.

They forgot about a lot of the promises they made about the dye system… what happened to the cultural dye palettes?

“Races get their own starting palette.
We realize as a young hero, the starting areas will have a lot of similarities in what is available to wear. To ensure that the five races have their own identities, we’ve created a cultural palette that reflects the character of the species. "

same link as OP, near the bottom….

Come on ANet, you flat out told us this is how the dye system will be… why did you change it? Give us what you said you would.

They didn’t promise anything about the dye system. They had a lot of ideas about how the game would play and they changed their minds about many. This is one of those areas where they decided that the original proposal wasn’t best suited for the game.

I would prefer an account-bound system, but I’m also ok with having to decide which of my toons gets celestial and which merely gets a lesser-quality white.
