Cash Shop Dyes

I was pondering if there could be an adjustment to the dye quantity in the cash shop. Something like 2-5 for the price it is at now. I know people have bought as they are now, but it would be more enticing for people to buy more dyes if the amount per sell were higher.

There are a lot of things I would want to dye metallic green but there's no way in hell that's happening at a dollar for every piece of gear. Since I want stuff to match too, I'm not going to get just one dye to use on just one item. If I had my way there'd be a dye NPC in the game that sells them all, and you drop around $5 to gain access to one color of your choice permanently.

Hey, if it was to purchase access to a dye, I'd pay $5 a character for access, or even a discounted $30 or so for account wide access... To me, having the unlimited access would be worth paying for. Even if they cost exorbitant amounts of gil each pot, the access would be worth it. I'd suggest having the calamity salvagers sell it.

I craft dye's in order to make some gil on the marketplace from time to time. Don't do this or it might mess up prices for dyes on the market.

I like helping people and friends get the pretty colors they want, it's the reason I leveled a crafting job in the first place and a part of the game that brings me joy.

Maybe for cash shop dyes permanent is fine, but please not the ones you can obtain in game.

No one was suggesting ththe in game craftables to be made permanent. Just the cash shop ones.

"a dye NPC in the game that sells them all, and you drop around $5 to gain access to one color of your choice permanently."

I assumed by "sells them all" they meant all the dyes in the game, sorry I read it wrong. It was just worded weirdly and I couldn't tell.

Or they could make all dyes available through the game so you don't have to spend any money to get them. You can still have them in the cash shop if you don't want to have to deal with whatever in game process gets it but there should be zero cash shop exclusive items.

I read it as being on NPC that sells all cash shop dyes and you unlock access to them with purchase... I mean you could add it to Junkmongers, but that could be confusing with all the other dyes they sell... I think Calamity Salvagers make more sense as they provide access to items based on achievements or toggles as it is, so having them sell cash shop purchased consumables makes sense. And thinking about it, a raised price may be feasible depending on how many dyes you get witj purchase. (one dye would come with tje unlock base, but pay more to get more with the unlock instead of just paying gil.) i mean it doesn't have to be mutually exclusive of purchasing individual dyes in the shop... Some people prefer dropping real cash to gil for some things... But if it also unlocks the purchase in game for large amounts of gil that is cool too... I'd expect 10000 or mor minimum...

I'd prefer they not sell them on the side as aesthetics are a major goal for me.
If I just have to pay for it with real money, where's the fun in "winning" it?

I still fail to get how cosmetics equates to winning something. Yes it's a goal, but there's no victory.

You just answered your own question. To some people getting all the glamors and having their gear looking just right is victory for them.

Winning implies you competed against someone or overcame an obstacle. Glamours don't fit either role. Goals are just an objective checklist you cross off at each point.

So competing against RNG, saving up gil, or leveling up a craft high enough to get that gear you want doesn't count? If you don't understand how someone finds glamour fun that's fine. But trying to argue that their views don't matter isn't.

My thoughts exactly; I'd pay $5 for a neverending pot of metalic green dye in a heartbeat, but at $1 for a single pot I would never even consider it.

Horrendously overpriced, just like everything else on the cash shop.

Ah, no, I'm talking specifically only about the three cash shop dyes, not any normal ones. Furthermore, if they wanted to curtail anyone doing a cash->gil conversion by dyeing other people's gear, they could set it up so that using the cash shop dyes binds the dyed item.

The people need a cheaper solution current and future dyes that are in the cash shop. The rare dyes need to have a wider availability, so people don't spend 200 venture coins on fish.

The obstacle of obtaining the gear, dyes, and glamors. They don't just appear in my lap. I have to work for them.
A lack of funds, levels, and especially the gear itself hinders my progress. By accepted modern definition, that is an obstacle.

Considering how often new armors are added and how often my glamour changes it really isn't worth for me to buy 5 dyes for such price. :))

Until they add metallic plaid dye to the cash shop, I'm not buying any of the dyes.

Hopefully, they will hear our plea and give us more and cheaper dyes.

Just put them in gold saucer as ticket prizes.

Development, might we be able to have any of these suggestions?

I actually don't like any of the dyes, but I think $5 for a set of 10 wold be a decent price (to dye your current gear, and a few to spare for upgrades), but maybe $25 for a re-usable dye pot? That way, if you *REALLY* like a particular color, you can set yourself up for the long haul.

I'm back to ask this again, seeing as there are a lot of DEVS responding to this. Can we have the rare dyes in the cash shop be available in higher quantities, or other places in the game?
