Offer ability to exchanged Venture gained Dyes

With the new pastels colors that have come out, it has added I believe triple the original dyes that use to drop which in essence means that obtaining the metallic gold/silver, white and black are now harder to come by.

Since the update I"v obtained the following
10 green
4 white/blue/purple/yellow
2 silver/red


Out of all these dyes the one which I hope to receive is black yet I keep getting pastels and since it's all luck based and with more added that odds of obtaining black seem more and more unlikely.

It would be nice if you would consider a 2:1 trade off of dyes for the ones you want so say I want a black and have all these junk colors I can trade in 2 greens for 1 token and use that 1 token to buy the black I'd like.

If there is a rarity attached to each dye then you could make each dye cost more or less based on the rarity of it but it would be nice to be given the option to exchanged colors of dyes which I never plan to use.

And to go one further are there any plans to let us sell these things in the future? I mean, the item description has the words 'rare' (fair enough), 'expensive' (uummm..) then 'unsellable'(but its expens..). See what i mean?

these should be sellable on MB

Nice idea to make it exchangeable but again it would even be better if we can sell those rare dyes.

Yes, please, sellable or tradeable or both, actually... It's insane that my retainer keeps bringing dyes back that just continue to pile up in my inventory, because I have no need of them. While at the same time I've had friends telling me they wished for one or another of them, to dye their wedding gear or whatever. And I felt bad about having it but still not being able to help.

If your friends' items are still tradable, they can give it to you and you can dye them and hand it back.

It sucks but it's better than nothing

You could dye stuff you've crafted and are selling with the ones you don't want... might insulate you from undercuts by a small margin. Though I don't know that there's a lot of demand for the pastel ones, the first time I got one I was like... ummm pastel... ok why would I want to use this?

Greetings, fashionable adventurers,

Thanks for the continued feedback concerning the special dyes. The development team said they would look into removing the untradeable tag from dyes that are obtained via retainer ventures.

Hurray! Now all my FC mates can give me the Pastel Pink Dye...currently, I have to trade them an unused item to dye for me, and vice versa :(

Agreed on them becoming trade able or sellable. My FC leader has been trying forever just to get a few golds for his upgraded Ironworks gear. Meanwhile I have 13 in my inventory I'm never going to use and I'd love to be able to give him the gold he wants.

I don't like the pastel dyes, except the green I like it, thier to girly for my character.

I tried offering for free to dye peoples' stuff with those pastel colors just to get rid of them and everyone thought I was a bot lol

Please also make the Cash Shop Metallics obtainable through Gold Saucer.

P.S. Please visit the PVP Forum today, soon hopefully, everyone is feeling very ignored over there...

Yes please. I have over 100 silver and 100 gold, and this is after dying tons of stuff. I don't remember my exact counts, but something like 80ish black & white, and then 20-40 of each of the pastels. The running joke with my husband is that my retainers see that I use one and bring me back 4 more so I don't run out...

... or make the dyes available for purchase via Allied Seals, just nothing too ridiculous in cost SE.

I would love to be able to trade dyes I never use with friends or family.

has anything else been said about possibly making the dyes tradable? it's been 5 months [fashionably late to the party? :D]
