ESO Dyes – They’re here, and they are fantastic!

So we finally have the much anticipated ESO update 1.3, you know, the guild one and the dye one.

It turns out the guild update made it so that everyone had access to their guild banks, or at least that’s what I read in the zone gossip, so guilds have now been disabled.

THEY WILL BE BACK! 

Honest, your guilds will return very soon, I’m sure.

Oh, and purple recipe drop rates have increased. No more 800K for honey brittle.

The dyes, however, I was able to play with. I’m loving the colors. They said they were going to go back on the 47 new achievements they made and give you credit if you had done them, but it looks like there were some achievements where that didn’t happen. I have a bunch of places that I have to head back to and hope the achievement unlocks.

Also, it looks like some of the fishing colors are great. Expect to see a lot of people fishing soon! It’s easy to tell where the dye stations are… just look for the crowd. There is a dye station in most major cities. Open the map and explore – many are near the alchemy.

The dye screen is super simple. It there’s a lock over the color you haven’t unlocked that color yet. You can click on it to check out how you unlock it.

If you like the colors you chose, you can set them and save them, so your toon can easily apply that color scheme with their next armor.

The dyes you have unlocked are per account, although I think the saved color scheme is per toon.

You can also randomize the colors chosen. The game will randomly chose three colors and apply the same to all your armor.

dye 4

No, it won’t apply three colors to one item, then a different three to another item when you hit randomize.

 

dye 5

Although some of the dyes chosen are… interesting, to say the least.

 

dye 6

I will now show you my fantastically detailed toons new colors.

Let’s start with my main, who is a level 47:

dye 7 dye 8 dye 14 dye 20 dye 21

 

I obviously have a favorite color scheme, here’s my 34 toon:

dye 9 dye 15 dye 22 dye 23

 

My other alts are all levels 12 – 6, and the dye station was glitching for some of them so I was unable to change their gear. Here’s what the toons who were dyed look like now:

dye 10 dye 16 dye 28 dye 29 dye 11 dye 17 dye 24 dye 25 dye 12 dye 18 dye 26 dye 27 dye 13 dye 19 dye 30 dye 31

 

And I’ll start doing the ESO Radio show soon, I just will be doing it alone since no one wants to game with me.
