Its a great feature BUT we should be able to wear guild tabards over costumes.

Some day I'd like to see the guild tabard in different place than covering my armor/costume, maybe on the back like here:

Anyone had a chnace to dye that Lion Guard heavy armor costume set? Or maybe the Ordenator pack?

The only reason why I didn't buy some limited time costumes is because of the inability to dye them. This is going to be beast!!

Have a look at what a Tabard actually is - then you see, that your suggestion would no longer be a tabard:

Instead of grinding for CP, I will be grinding objectives for dye colors.

It will make every new color you achieve more valuable as well - and you can try out what effects those new colors have on your favorite costumes - kind of a new time sink as well, as this might take an hour or more to do every time.

Khajiit was herself able to briefly tinker with the dye system last night.

Verdict: The Desert Gala Overdress (that we cannot get yet) looks surprisingly good on a male orc - especially if you hide the head thingummy.

I have tried that on my dunmer as well... It looks like the regalia of an Christian Orthodox Bishop.

Awesome pictures! I am so looking forward to this.

Is it just costumes or can we dye disguises, too. I'm guessing no (it would defeat the purpose of a disguise) but it would be nice to make our own disguises.

could someone clarify the dying system,

Thnx in advance

When you dye a costume is the costume dyed for my account, or is the costume just dyed for that character

ie: if i want one of my characters in say a 'goth' corested riding outfit, could i have the other character in a 'the base uncoloured' corested riding outfit?

(i have tons of costumes, just curious cause i really love this costume)

It is different for each character, yes, so you can save the riding corset colors on that character.

Note that ESO+ members will have full use of unlocked dyes at any dye station.

Non-subscribed players will have access to dye stamps that are purchasable in the crown store.

Really? So I no longer have to get the achievements?

I feel a little bittersweet about that. I've spent a lot of time and effort getting achievements, and one of the motivations was unlocking dyes. But that's okay. Getting achievements just won't be as important as it is right now.

You can use any unlocked dyes on your account. So, same as armor, any dyes still locked you cannot use ... until unlocked by the achievement.

The catch on the dye stamps is that they are a pre-selected set of three dyes which are rotated in the crown store every week. Each dye stamp is labeled with the week it was issued to avoid confusion. Rare dyes are currently excluded from the dye stamps.

There's been some discussion in PTS about the stamps being too limited ... if you're not subscribed to ESO+ (and want to voice your concerns), then you're invited to post in the PTS thread, here:

https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/277238/official-feedback-thread-for-dye-stamps-crown-store#latest

If you're ESO+ like me it's a non-issue ... since it's exactly like dying armor at the dye station.

I'll try to post some more wedding dress pics tonight on my Imperial Stam Sorc ... looks like the current pic is approaching 3,000 views.

No, you misunderstand - you won't have colors available, where you haven't completed the achievement to get them.

I am so frackin excited for this. I love many costumes but hate the colors on them. Can't wait to fully customize my characters!

Wonder what the collection of all the normal hairstyles and adornments will cost - to be able to change hair and adornment at will from the collection tab would be great, sometimes my chosen adornment is not working well with one or the other head piece.

Yes, you're right I misunderstood. So as long as I sub, I can use all the dyes I've already unlocked? That's great.

I am already seeing in my mind a halloween costume with the wedding dress - coloring it with the provisioner color, which is somewhat orange.

Hellbender27

Hahah .. we are all such nerds I LOVE IT!! these post are great for passing time in between meetings lol thx for post!

Voxicity

Can I ask you a favour? Are you able to dye the toxin doctor costume clothes in black and dye the mask white?

AnnieBeGood

Oh,

How absolutely delicious......:D

I can see me spending hours at the dying station.... and a lot more crowns on costumes.

It appears from PTS testing that all of the regular hairstyles that currently exist in the game (including the Orsinium front-part) will be sold in a crown bundle. New hairstyles (some of which look quite nice by the way) will be sold individually.

To my knowledge, ZOS has not announced the crown price yet.

I'm dieing to dye

Correct pun would be either:

or
I'm dying to dye

EDIT: Or if you're a narcissist:

I'm dying to die

@SantieClaws --

This one perceives you have most excellent taste in textiles ... even when clothing people from lands far distant from the warm sands of Elsweyr.

Khajiit would be most welcome in any wandering Bandaari clan ... where a keen eye and sense of wardrobe would be an asset on the endless path of wares.
