Dyeing

== Overview ==
Most loot armor and clothing (and some quest items that have the special property Dyeable) can be dyed various colors by using cooking skill to apply a prepared dye pot. 
For the effects of applying dye to loot-generated armor, see the different types of Armor.
The process of creating a dye pot requires alchemy skill. Dye plants spawn randomly on the landscape (the plant links below have spawn maps) or are grown by a Herbalist (Terese). If you give her Little Green Seeds she will give you a plant in return (Thanamin for Tusker seeds and different colors for seeds dropped by various types of Shreth).
* If you would like to add dyed variations of quest armor and clothing to your page, the Template:Dyed Variations might be of use.
== Crafting Steps ==
# Crush the dye plant using a Mortar and Pestle. Difficulty: 150 Alchemy = 50% chance of success.
#* 
#: You crush the plant.
# Use a Neutral Balm on the crushed plant to create a vial of dye. Difficulty: 200 Alchemy = 50% chance of success.
#* 
#: You brew the dye.
# Use the vial of dye with a Cooking Pot to create a dye pot. Difficulty: 200 Cooking = 50% chance of success.
#* 
#: You boil the dye.
# Finally, use the dye pot on the item you wish to dye. Difficulty: 230 Cooking = 50% chance of success.
#* 
#: You apply the dye.
==== Items that can be Dyed ====
* All Loot Armor and Clothing. See :Category:Loot Armor Type for a list of pages with screenshots.
* Quest armor and clothing with the Dyeable property. See :Category:Dyeable for a list of these items.
* Stamps
* Flags
* Shadow Armor
* Ancient Armor can be dyed using Pigmentation Apparatus obtained through the The Temple of Xik Minru quest.
==== Fail Dyes ====
It is possible to fail a dye job if your skill isn't high enough. The result can be either a minor failure (color changes to pink for clothing or orange for armor) or a major failure where 20 Armor Value is lost (cannot go below zero). Some people find the fail colors desirable and will purposefully use a low skill chef (cooking must still be trained). The color of plant used doesn't matter.
NOTE: With the addition of Tailoring, it is now possible to safely "fail dye" your armor without the reduction of armor level.

== Notes ==
* Dyeing was introduced during the Twilight's Gleaming event.
* When first introduced, dye plants were seasonal and only appeared on the landscape during certain months:
** During the Twilight's Gleaming event, Hennacin, Berimphur and Verdalim plants were available.
** During The Child of Daralet event, Argenory, Minalim and Lapyan were available.
** During the Lost in the New Horizon event, Renalim and Colban plants became available. In addition, Thananim also became available with the introduction of Terese the Herbalist.
* During the Should the Stars Fall event, Ketnan began exchanging the three dye plants available at the time for knock-off "Hoory" Mattekar Robes and Bludgeoning Swords.
* During the Betrayal event, plants were changed to be no longer seasonal and now appear on the landscape all year round.
