    Dye Vendor?

    Can we perhaps get a dye vendor in the housing areas that sells all dyes from all vendors, including beast tribes (if you unlocked them of course)

    Because we always have to look up the database which beast tribe sells what dye and then teleport over there just to buy a few dyes, i find that rather annoying.

    Purchase a Junkmonger Permit from an Independent Sutler that you can place in your house/apartment or FC room. They sell the normal vendor dyes (not the beast tribe ones) and Dark Matter for repairs along with a couple of other items.

    They're highly unlikely to add the Beast Tribe dyes to a non-Beast Tribe vendor. It would be nice if SE added something like "favored by the Sylphs" to the tooltips for those dyes though.

    That would be lovely, for sure.

    You can also do what I do and buy 30+ dyes of each type from the beast tribe vendors so you don't have to worry about where they are.

    Could do that, if storage space wasnt so limited.

    I would think some akin to the Rowena Representatives that were added to the cities selling time/raid gear could be more useful. Basically it'd be a Tribesman Representative that has all the Beast Tribe wares (that you've unlocked) depending on the area you are in. So a representative in Ul'dah would only show all the wares for ARR tribes, or one in Ishgard showing HW etc, you get the picture. They'd have dyes obviously and any other stuff you've unlocked from doing Tribe things for purchase.

    Imagine the NPC that sells dyes, added to your house, where it shows:
    1) Normal dyes - these dyes are shown regardless and can be purchased in cities
    2) Special dyes - e.g. beast tribes - depending on what beast tribes you've done, some will be shown and some will be hidden - so do your beast tribes to unlock more
    3) Ultra Special dyes - Like "General-Purpose Metallic Blue" or "General-Purpose Metallic Gold" - These would help normalize the prices as some are literally cheap and others literally expensive.

    I can safely say that will never happen. Those dyes are also available on the cash shop in a non-tradeable version. They want players buying there if they don't like the in game prices.

    I’m all for the 1 and 2, it would be awesome !
    For the 3, Jojoya is right : it probably will never happen because of the cash shop.
