so, since it's quite clear that applying a dye can raise the rating of an item I'd assume that the system works this way: we'd have to figure out items that give a gold rating on their own, and then raise the rating further by applying dye to them, whereas rare/metallic dyes seem to give more points

I suppose even if you don't need the MGP or don't participate in the event, you can still make loads of gil from everyone else trying to score.

Mmhm. Was really hoping this would be a thing that just pulled from reasonably accessible crafts or NPC shops, ARR dungeons at most. Level 60 crafts, HW dungeon accessories and Centurio gear, rare dyes, it's all leaving a pretty sour taste for me.
That said, I suppose I do also recognize that the items they could've pulled from pre-HW seem pretty repetitive, uninspired, with few unique offerings. Still not happy about it, though. -

Poverty setup for female characters only which gave me 82 points:
Augmented Shire Casting Hat [Snow White] - Gold
Ramie Shirt [undyeable] - 3*
Asuran Hakama of Casting [Soot Black] - Gold
Bridesmaid Sandals [Metallic Gold] (Apparently Milliocorn Yellow works too?) - Gold
Ring from Dusk Vigil - Gold
Rest was just my usual accessories, so nothing to write home about (Lost Allagan/Genji stuff). My Dinosaur Leather Gloves were dyed Soot Black too, though I doubt that influenced too much - not that I tried.
Total cost is whatever a Ramie Shirt (or the mats for it) are on your server, though the mats were super cheap on mine; 345 or so Poetics for the hat + augmentation, 85 Centurio Seals for the skirt + augmentation and some gil for the dyes + the Sandals. Then do unsynced Dusk Vigil until you get a ring (first chest drops it) which shouldn't take too long since they're all equippable by any class and you're set.
Make sure each slot has something equipped, too. -

Just to clarify...not the first chest...its the first boss chest from Dusk Vigil for the ring.
Songbird Hat (Undyed) - Gold
Extreme Survivor Shirt (Undyed) - 1 star
Yasha Hakama of Casting (Undyeable) - 4 star
Thavnazia Sandals (Undyed) - 1 star
Ring from Dusk Vigil - Gold
Total - 69
Songbird Hat (Snow White) - Gold
Extreme Survivor Shirt (Snow White) - 2 star
Yasha Hakama of Casting (Undyeable) - 4 star
Thavnazia Sandals (Cream Yellow) - 2 star
Ring from Dusk Vigil - Gold
Total - 75
Looks like you get ~50 pts for just wearing something. 1 2-star and rest-1 star = 52 pts for me.
And dye color doesn't appear to matter. Just using a dye bumps equip up 1 star?
Can someone try going completely naked to see how many pts you get? :p -
