    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.

    "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.
