Guild Wars 2

Hello, world

I really don’t like the way how some dyes looks totally different or pale on some armors.
For example on my thief i have Tier 3 cultural Norn armor(medium) and I’m forced to be colored black and white…. why? well because dyes on this particular armor look so different… so pale… that it looks just ugly… and it’s not like the dyes should be… for example “Blood Dye” should look darkish red… as it does on most armors… but on my T3 cultural armor looks pale red, actually even worse…. and it’s the same with all other colors… it’s just not as it’s supposed to be. And it bothers me, because if you look at the price of armor, i never imagined that i will have a dye problem at the end of all… it’s kinda sad. on the opposite site… the easiest armors white normal low lvl armors.. have the most true color effects… what do you guys think about this?

If I understand it, it’s because certain dyes show up differently on certain materials which to my mind is actually cool, more realistic. Try sorting your dyes by material and going from there.

What I do is sort by hue and pick a shade brighter or darker depending on how goofy stuff looks, for instance I use sapphire, but on cloth sapphire turns darker, so I use royal blue to keep it matching. That said, I agree that it is kind of annoying and I’d like it if they just did away with that altogether.
