The Basics:

Dyes were intorduced in September 2000 to alter the color of items/armor

A few basics about dyes

• the are rumored to come in multiple colors, but only red/green/yellow have been found
• you need both an alchemist AND a cook to complete the process
• dyeing armor requires a HIGH cooking skill, or you may reduce the AL
• You cannot dye quest items (example: matte coat)

The beginning:

Search for pants in the wilderness by running around and using the ] button

Some known locations (Thx to Wilhelm Morningstar)

• Yellow --Near Samsur, desert areas
• Green -- Arwic Mts., North of Holtburg, forest areas
• Red -- Near Sawato, in sawmp

Genearting and applying dyes:

ok -- drop a tell to Opto or Lonsys for dye processing

It is a four step process, any of which may fail, so -- it is best to bring 2 or even 3 plants.
The four steps are:

1. Crush the plant - requires alchemy
2. Create the dye with a neutral balm - requires alchemy
3. Boil the Dye oin a pot - requires cooking
4. Apply the dye to Item - requires cooking

What you bring to Lonsys:

• Plants
• Neutral Balm for each plant
• a Cooking Pot
