I haven’t seen a single dye drop in PVE after the last patch?

Did you read the patch notes? They don’t drop anymore.

Working as intended.

They said they would not drop in PvE anymore (after 4/15 patch).

However, my guildmate and I have both gotten dyes from Black Lion Chests this last week.

BG: 52 alts, 29 lvl 80’s. They all look good, so I am done with the game: Oct 2014

Excluding purchasing from the trading post, is the only ways to get them now from black lion chests, crafting them, or by using laurels?

It’s a kitten conspiracy. Kittens gonna be kittens. All is vain!

Yes.

Sadly, yes. Not only do they not drop from hostiles, you won’t get them from harvesting plants like before either. Either BL chests (not recommended), laurels (only if you have nothing else you want to use them on), or crafting them (I think it’s via the Forge, but I’m not sure).

You can craft specific shades via cooking, as well. (So it would be an unidentified red dye, rather than a straight unidentified dye)

Thanks for the clarification. I knew about that, but neglected to mention it. That method is probably better at going for a specific dye anyway, although I’m not sure if some colors are exclusive to an Unidentified Dye. I’ve read on the wiki that it involves forging separate unidentified shades, but I’ve not gotten it to work, so I can’t know for sure.

I believe it only works with the rare quality crafted unidentified (shade) dyes.

I’m waiting for them to shoot up to 1g each.

Also 5 dailies used to give you 10 dyes.
Now it’s 5 dailies = 1 dye.

If they ever do. The price right now is dropping. Soon, unidentified dye prices will be lower than pre-patch freak-out.

But it wasn’t a freak out. It says a accurate description of what demand would be. Especially given both the change to account bound AND the reimbursement.

It will find a way to balance out
