Jump to navigationJump to search

Please don't test dyeability on heroes or from equipment packs. Test with the item equipped on your own character or in regular inventory (not the new equipment packs.) I've seen cases where an item equipped on a hero would not open the dye preview, but the same item would dye when placed in inventory.

If reporting data, please include as much of the following information as you can

  • Exact name of the weapon/offhand and it's skin variant (if there's more than one skin for the name.)
  • Text color, max or non-max, inscribable or not (in the case of white items, did it come from a source known to produce inscribable or uninscribable loot?)
  • Does applying dye to it open the dye preview window or not? If it does open, does the dye affect appear to match what's currently shown here?
  • For loot drops from foes or chests ...
    • Date it dropped (if you know)
    • Map where it dropped (if you know)
    • Foe or type of chest that dropped it (if you know)
  • For collector or crafter items ...
    • Date if was obtained from the collector or crafter (if you know)
    • Which collector or crafter produced it (if you know)
    • Especially in the case of inscribable items, are you positive it's from a collector or crafter instead of dropped blue loot?

Thanks!

It seems some of these, both loot and collector versions, will dye while others will not. Of the ones that dye, I've only ever found a single effect (where yellow dye makes it look darker.) LicensedLuny 04:08, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

  • A trusted friend tells me he has a gold, max, insc. "Air Staff" with the lightning spire skin that will not dye either. He's pretty sure he got it as a drop from NF or EotN in the past couple months. LicensedLuny 05:13, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

There are two ways this skin can dye: one way yellow is the default color, the other way yellow makes the staff look green. Both can occur on inherent and inscribable staffs (see the pic on the main article of this page.) I do not know how to predict which dye effect will occur from icon, info tag, or drop source. I have inscribable and inherent examples of this staff which will dye with both effects. I no longer bother to report dye findings for these here unless I find one that will not dye.

  • Jan. 2, 2011 - Doing NM Ebony Citadel of Mallyx, I got two white non-max core/wand skin "Air Staffs," one from a Tortureweb Dryder and one from a Rage Titan. Both will dye with the effect of yellow matching the default color. (I used a regular salvage kit on both. One salvaged to 6 Glittering Dust and the other to 8 Iron Ingots. I haven't salvaged many of this skin staff because I thought they always resulted in wood planks.) LicensedLuny 12:11, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
