Guild Wars 2

Question, since dyes are going to be account bound now, can I delete my character to do a free world transfer and still retain the dyes?

The dye’s that the character has, that your other character’s don’t, will be deleted. The rest will stay. If that means deleting all but basic dye’s, you basically killed all your dye’s.

What on earth are you even talking about?

Today all dyes players have unlocked become account bound, meaning they are no longer associated with any specific character. You can delete and create characters at will, and they will all have access to your dyes. Changing your home world does not affect this.

I very much doubt the game will retain any memory of which character added which dyes to the account. Most likely deleting characters will keep their dyes, but not until after the patch obviously.

You have to log in with the character AFTER the patch goes live to unlock that characters dyes (or get any UIDs if they have duplicates).

DON’T delete your character yet.
