Time to Dye

Personally, I think it's about time for gear found in older content such as Coil, Labyrinth of the Ancients, and the older HM dungeons (Hussar, Shikaree, etc.) be made dyeable.

I enjoy a portion of the older gear styles and think they should be dyeable after a given time. On the plus side, this gives players another reason to run old content aside from relic/quest grinds.

What do you think of this and what would you like to see given this option?

That would be pretty cool actually. The drop rate on some of this gear though... ><;

lol Well if they decide to keep with or add additional relic like grinds, at least we will have something to look forward to.

they did it with Foestriker/battlemage/idon'tremembertheothers...

they will probably introduce a dyeable version with new recipes.

^They didn't make that stuff dyeable; they made crafted versions of those sets (battlemage and foestriker). Also, they changed which jobs could wear which styles. So healers can't wear the battlemage one, they wear the acolyte version. Ranged dps can't wear the Infantry one, they wear foestriker's, etc.

I definitely want the gear from older dungeons to be made dyeable though. Some of the coolest sets could be made to look really awesome (Fistfighter's, Shirakee's, etc etc etc).

I'm not okay with this option, since these dyeable versions have stronger class restrictions than their dropped forms. I was so excited to add a dyeable Battlemage's coat to my wardrobe, only to have my hopes dashed because I'm a healer.

its not like the high allagan gear has not already been coded to change colors...

NNNooooo, please not 3 billon gil reskined dye'able OLD gear. Please just make the gear Dye'able. Crafters made enough money this patch with the relic items needed for the Zodiac quest line. 600K crafted stuff.

I understand class restrictions, craftable items and such, but I'm not fond of styles being reused just to be made dyeable... especially when it is not usable by the original class. When I made this thread, I had darklight gear in mind... not the multiple versions of foestriker's tabard and such.

*Honestly Pvp, Crafter, and dungeon gear should never be rehashed for dying purposes. Maybe one day we can get a new set of glamor crystals that ignore class (to an extent.. I would love to wear drg relic with all roles but that's just bad business).*

anyone else thinks that the texture quality of those gears look worse when they become dyeable?

darklight gear is dyable, and i agree, they should not rehash them like they did the forstrikers but instead just unlock it to be dyed LIKE the darklight sets.

Yes plz. That green on the HA gear is so nice.

I agree, it'd be much nicer if we could dye everything. No more "Players are dumb, they may get confused." excuses.
