Hey guys, I noticed that the maroon dye isn’t maroon.
Maroon dye in the game is currently Tyrian purple https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrian_purple
Maroon colour is supposed to look like this http://www.color-hex.com/color/800000
Purple has the element of blue mixed with red in RGB whereas Maroon is just red and the absence of green and blue spectrum. As seen in the maroon colour link above, it’s RGB is 128 0 0 respectively.
I don’t mean to nitpick but Maroon is my favourite colour alongside with burgundy (which you guys really did a great job with that colour) and it’s sort of disappointing to see that my favourite colour is sort of, for a lack of a better word, “butchered”.
I’m not sure how much effort it would take to change the code to fix the colour of the dye but I really hope ANet could take some time to fix the dye.
Cheers~
