Could we get Luminescent Dye? You know, the way we have the Luminescent Carapace armor? But in Dyes?

I don’t think it would work as a dye because its more of a texture/aura overlay effect. It presents different color tones in shadows/sunlight and night / day. It would probably have to be an infusion effect but I don’t know if that would work either.

Back when the CoH Developers found a way to make glowing effects on the costumes in that game, it was mostly by making parts of the costume not react to changes in lighting. Thus, even in shadow, those parts were bright, creating the glowing effect.

I think that’s pretty much how any glowing parts of armor work in GW2 as well. It’s a great effect, but it’s something that comes from how the armor/clothing is made, and really has nothing to do with what dye you use.

delicate, brick-like subtlety.
