Armor Dye
by paul on Jul.11, 2013, under Tradeskill
You need one vial of prismatic dye per slot; this is best made now in Crescent Reach, although the components are still sold in Gunthak as an alternative, if you wish to make in the Plane of Knowledge. It’s best to skill up in Crescent Reach with the training quests to 54, then use the Fetid Essence recipe to increase brewing skill (fishing grubs plus water flask, trivial 122; components all available in Plane of Knowledge).
You need to make items with trivials of: brewing skill 68, pottery 54.
– Vial of Prismatic Dye (brewing, 68) total cost 23pp2sp, Crescent Reach or Gulf of Gunthak
– dye vial (quality firing sheet 2s, unfired dye vial 10pp – pottery)
– prismatic dye (glaze lacquer 8pp, prism shard 5pp – brewing)
You can also sell these in the Bazaar for a profit reasonably easily.
