Guild Wars 2

“The new Red Dye Pack is guaranteed to contain red and pink dyes only. Whether you want to dye your armor in Valentine’s colors or deck yourself out in blood red, we’ve got the dye pack for you!”

I bought it today, as i wanted to get Red dye or pink one and guess what….i got Lava dye^^ thanks.

Screenshot so we actually know how it looks like, maybe?

No need to make a screen i guess.

I think dye’s are up and ready as the “Self Style Hair Kit 20% Off!” is on. Just got the silly lava dye instead red / pink one. I will not risk to buy that pack again.

Any staff answer on this?

what color is lava? if it’s considered red, then there is no problem.

Lava Dye is a red color. What’s the problem?

Even if it is, thers a problem.

Normally Red dye pack has dyes red range ( so lava, pink etc etc ) But today’s New Red dye pack, should contain RED or PINK dye as it says:
“guaranteed to contain red and pink dyes only” not range colours just red or pink.

If its like you say, how they can call Brand new Red dye pack?!

If this is the Lava dye you received it looks pretty red to me.

Were you expecting the actual dye named Red and the actual dye named Pink?

I can see where he would come to that conclusion. They might want to change the description to something like, in the Red or Pink spectrum.

Is it something new? Because it’s not even a “dye pack”, it’s 1 unidentified red dye.
Anyway, in the BL store, it says that it contains one dye “from the red hue spectrum”. It doesn’t say that the dye is specifically a dye called RED.

Ah sorry, Piaskowy, you beat me to my post. I understand how it could be interpreted that you would only receive the Red or Pink dye if you bought the pack, but honestly when I read that news post I assumed it would be the range of Red hues.

Considering they’re selling them in packs of 5 I’d be pretty dissapointed if it only contained 2 colours.

Isn’t this the same way the cook dye recipes are categorized? You can make “yellow” or “red” dye, but it’s actually a random hue of that color.

I don’t see the false advertising here, the description says clearly
“(…) guaranteed to contain red and pink dyes only.” not
“(…) guaranteed to contain Red and Pink dyes only.”
I don’t wanna go all grammar nazi about this, but that’s where the difference between Red dye and red dye is
