Guild Wars 2

I have noticed that. But this piece is so far outside the color as to be unattractive. If I had gotten it from a drop it would not be a big deal but I had spent gems to get it. This post is more of a warning for others who might have their characters colors all decided on.

Just think twice and realize that you are taking a gamble. Unless of course I missed the way to preview a dye on the article before purchasing it?

I just spent 600 gems for the Profane (light) armor kit in the gem store. I have picked out dyes that I like and that go with the skin tone of my character. But when I used the leg armor I found out that the dyes look nothing like any of the other armor I have used. I have included a screenshot. The chest piece, gloves and headpiece are mostly mahogany.

The legs from the profane are also mahogany. Note that it does NOT look anything like the chest piece. So you cannot mix and match and expect the colors to work.

Since this is a Style purchase, I find this a complete waste of money as I will not use the armor. I should have bought another bank slot instead.

So beware before you buy it just might not be worth the gems. Especially if you have particular dyes you want to use.

I will not buy another armor set for any of my characters.
