Issues With Dye On Light Armor

Seravi

This problem may be on medium and heavy, not sure but it is a big problem on light armor. I am using the same color across the board on seven pieces of light armor. the hat, legs, and shoes are High Elf light and the rest is Bosmer light. The problem is the colors are NOT the same. Regardless of race, to me if you are using the same type, light, medium or heavy armor, the colors should match.

As you can see in the two attached pictures, the colors are way off between the different races of armor. I have been using mostly dark colors because most of the light colors don't match. Something is off when you are trying to use blue yet the Bosmer pieces come out purple or use white the the Bosmer pieces come out tan?

Hey there @Seravi,

Thanks for the report and the screenshot! We'll be sure to take a look.

EDIT: Conferred with some folks to get an answer for you! The difference in color that you are noticing is related to the material type as well as the item's quality. At the moment there are no plans to make the colors match closer between varying materials, however we're always looking at player feedback for suggestions and improvements.

This feedback has been forwarded along, and we really do appreciate it. You're also welcome to submit issues like this through the /feedback feature within the game. These tickets go straight to our devs for review and they take the time to read all of them.

Thanks! The op pictured outfit is V14 light armor, void cloth, legendary, all seven pieces. The only difference is Bosmer and Altmer styles. Thanks again for the info and forwarding this to the devs.
