Reading up on the new update notes, the first thing that came to mind about the dyes was “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.” So buy all the dyes and spread them across the alts and get a higher value of unidentified dyes? Seems reasonable.

This is already deeming all the exploits and unfairness within the game. TP has already been manipulated with the hoard of investors out there and consuming all the dyes, creating an imbalance of supply and demand in the current, and possibly, future market.

Dye lovers will also have a problem of an expensive dye being in both characters already in a single account. This creates an unfairness. For example, deep glacial sky dye which ranges from 130g-160g is given to both characters in a single account. Would it be fair to be rid of the extra deep glacial sky dye at a 160g loss? It seems true that “oh the dyes r given to all my characters now” but the best compensation would be settled with giving back the same dyes that the same account has multiples of.

Sorry if the grammar or fluency may not sound correct, but I will edit this later as I have someplace to go to right now.

Your gifted unidentified dyes will have the same chance to produce ultra rares as always. Consider the dye market crushed and gutted except for something like Celestial, Molten, etc. Even those will drop considerably. There is an 8 page thread on this here:
