I am looking for a list of updated of colours that are used in Aion to dye armours with. I have seen screenshots of dyed armour and there was a basic list on Hellbound. (site link is not working at time of post)
May users of the Korean and Chinese retail assist with this request please rather to have guesses and estimates on "what colours should be in Aion". I am looking for allready existing dyes only. If dyes/new colours are able to be created via mixing may the name of the new colour/dye mix be included too on this list/thread.

[Seraphin]

Blue
Purple
Green
Brown


^That's it.

^this.

Why one would conclude that bright blue is the best font colour for a light blue background is beyond me.

atm in aion retail u only have the 3 dyes seraphin said, later patches u get more dyes

[Argencia]

*gasp* All the pretty colors.. *drools* Makes me want to play more >.> Every girl wants to play dress up :D

And the blue font isn't that bad.. just highlight it if it's giving you trouble. No reason to be prickly about it.

[Tiger]

is there any black dye?or will they add it??
I want black!

With 1.1 they introduced the 'flower petals' feature. Collecting these you can apply them to armors. Some petals make the armor brighter, some are darker. The more petal you use (up to 5 I think), the more shady the armor becomes.

So, might seem that there is not that many colors to choose from, these petals will unlock quite a few new options in dyeing.

Sorry, I should have been more specific:

The 4 colors I listed are the only dyes available on the current Chinese retail.

[buglepong]

The problem with the dyes is that it only does certain surfaces (generally upper surface), so the inner layers are always the same colour.

[Tyrekos]

Whoa, what is this knowledge points stuff? Sounds like a system based around helping people with questions about the game, where more questions answered = more points. I tried to translate it with Google but it still made little sense to me.

plaync ??? :: ?????

Can anyone explain exactly what this is?

[Kanojo]

As far as I know knowledge is just a basic statistic, like intelligence in other MMOs. My guess is that it increases the amount of MANA you have, because logically the more knowledge of magic you have, the more spells you can cast.

[Tyrekos]

This seems different, it is apparently needed to acquire certain rare dyes (such as silver, true white, deep blue, hot pink etc.), and you spend them. Some of them require upwards of 1500 and I strongly doubt we'll be spending our intellect on getting dyes. :dizzy:

Let me try to find a translated version of this table I saw earlier, it had a very rough idea of what these things are.\

EDIT: Here it is, found here

Scroll down to Inchaenteu knowledge acquired through the rare dye ahyion and below that there will be table, starting with New Sign Up, +50, etc.

Maybe you're talking about something else, but I know when you are creating a character Knowledge is one of the six or eight statistics shown on the screen (I can't remember the exact number, haven't played in a while)

All right I know this is a couple weeks old, but I couldn't help but try to clear this up (lol google Translate... it's handy, but it's pretty bad with Korean. I added my google contribution to that page, we'll see if it gets approved). I'm not going to translate word for word but I'll put the main points (Dying items, colors, that sort of thing).

First Draconic, Abyss, and Unique Items can't be dyed.

You will need one dye per item, so you'll need 5 dyes total to do a whole armor set (Top, Bottom, Shoulder, Gloves, and Boots).

A confirmation box appears when you dye an item, once confirmed it can not be "undone" so be sure you want to change it to that color (Translator note: I presume you could get another dye and change it to that color, but you can't just hit an undo button or something like that).

Dye can be obtained from NPC's in each factions capital city. (it does me no good to say their names, cause who knows how NCWest will choose to romanize them).

"Flower Petals" have been added based on player feedback. These petals can be harvested from plants and the chance to obtain them is about 3-4%. These "petals" can be used to make different colors than normal dyes. (the plants that they can be obtained from normally give other ingredients, I won't list the names here because NCWest will most likely rename them to make sense for this region).

List of Colors from Petals: (In order of appearance on the site)
First Table:
Lime
Red (light)
Yellow (w/ green tint)
Burnt Orange
Light purple (not sure what the 남 part of 남보라색 was.. last part was purple =/)
Aqua (Light blue)
Gold (Royal Gold).

Second Table:
Royal Blue
Lilac (another purple)
Golden
Orange
Cyan (says Cyan... more green than normal cyan it seems)
Light Yellow
Bright Cobalt

List of regular dyes:
Blue
Brown
Purple
Green
Original (revert back to items pre dyed color)

As for the whole "Knowledge point" thing. It is not your characters "Knowledge" Stat as some have inferred, it is based on a sort of forum/knowledge base. Players post questions, and you can post answers. Think of a site like Yahoo Answers. You get points based on your participation, and those points show up in game as Enchant Knowledge (What they call it =/). You can spend these points on the "rare dye" colors. (I personally doubt NCWest will use this system, as it sounds pretty dumb, and they should know that we have a good player base that will help out anyway, without this silly system. Regardless the items are in game and there should be some kind of way to get them). Below is the list of "Rare Dye" colors in order of appearance:
True Red
Mustard
Deep Blue
Olive Green
"Green Tea"
True White
Hot Orange
Hot Purple (they seem to like purple in this game)
Hot Pink

That should do it. Hope that helps.
Here's the source link: plaync ??? :: ??? - ??? ??

I updated the Wiki page with this information.
Dye - Aion: the Tower of Eternity Wiki - AionSource.com
It's a bit easier to understand in that format.
