• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Anyone else get free dye colors they shouldn't have... or are missing one they should have ?

Heading to work, will throw in a bug report later when I get home and play (and do a complete check on what I should and shouldn't have).

Got at least 2 dyes I shouldn't have that stood out (I don't have these Achievements, so the error isn't an Achievement I don't deserve, but just the dye):

Not sure if I am missing any yet.

    I know there's some that I didn't get but should have (all motifs being one of them). I see it for one of the dyes where it lists ALL, but not the one specific to Rare Motifs. So, I know it's in their system... and I'm honestly in no rush to use that dye anyway. :grinning:

    I'm missing two colors today that I had when dyes were first released. I don't even see which ones they were unless they were ones I wasn't supposed to have. I had a nice yellow, brighter than Dragonthorn and a teal that was called turquoise. It went great with the dark purple. I know it was for this character but they are gone. Has anyone else lost colors that they had at first? Do you know if it was just an accidentally unlocked color?

    I have not checked yet, but the patch notes say they have fixed the issues of people getting colours they shouldn't have (like that red we won't mention...). However, if you've dyed armor in that colour, you get to keep that until you change it yourself.

    If you are missing some from a different character, log it on and it should pop up. I had the emperor kill on a character, but it did not show as available until I logged that character in and back out.

    That's probably it then. I just wasn't supposed to have them. If they are the colors I think they are it is very unlikely I will ever get them again.

    I have another dye question. There is a blue for refining 30 mats. The deconstructing one and the collecting one just need that total. I have certainly refined more than 30 items in all crafting skills. There is no count when I look at the achievements in my journal. It just says it is in progress. Does anyone know anything about it?

    I got an achievement yesterday saying I'd deconstructed 50 items, which is crazy. More like 1000, maybe.

    Amusingly, I had (have?) the dye for reaching level 50. My highest level char(s) are lvl 18. I don't have the dye's for reaching lvl 20, 30, or 40.

    (Note: Maybe for that achievement dye it was accidentally using the sum of the characters levels and not the max? The sum of my characters levels is way past 50)

    They added some new achievements with the dye system.
    The way I see it, these new achievements aren't retroactive, so we all start anew, regardless of past activity.

    Would have been nice if they were, though :\

    Opinions are like buttholes : Everybody has one, and they usually stink.

    3 things to reduce stamina/magicka imbalance :
    - Use magicka to block abilities costing magicka, instead of stamina.
    - Add % damage reduction to heavy armor.
    - Add block penetration to 2H.

    Yeah, I don't think threer was a counter attached to your character before the new Achievements.

    The dye isn't for 30 it is for the last step, if I remember right, is 3000 for most of them.

    Edit: i'm not sure I seem to have some for apprentice, and don't have others.. hrmm.

    I just started a new alt and skipped the prison and went straight to a dye station and i had quite a few dyes available to me that didn't belong.

    Something ain't right ...

    Except they're supposed to be retroactive as stated by ZoS.

    The achievements are good across all your alts.

    This worked for me. I was missing the botanist color until I logged in and out on my alchemist and now it shows up.

    My recipe counts are now correct. I am missing several colors I had before but I think they were for achievements I do not have.

    Only the ones that can be retroactive are so. Some counter ones, like this refining one, never had a counter before the achievement, so there would be no way to retroactively give it. Quest completion statistics, traits, enchant translations, alchemy properties, etc are already in existence, so those can be granted retroactively.

    I noticed this this morning. And I am pretty sure I logged in yesterday. SO I am not sure that the values are being persisted across the account through logout. I'll have to check this evening, but this morning I had to bounce around my alts to unlock all the colors on my main.

    I had 2 i should not have, big deal. Now that they "fixed" this. I am missing 5 i SHOULD have.

    I guess its too bad i just deleted couple characters that were taking room who had some of those achievments. *** system if you ask me.

    It appears you have to log in with the characters that received the achievements after the 1.3.4 patch in order to be credited with the dye account-wide. So if you deleted them- maybe customer service can help?

    It is unfortunate but true that the counters for decon and refining achievements started at patch 1.3.3. so we're all starting from scratch on those. Wish I had known that in advance.

    I am being screwed out of 3 achievements all because of a location I have been to, which is marked WHITE on my map (I have even travelled there after the patch) is not being counted as "discovered" Its WILLOWGROVE CAVERN in Reapers March, and because I am not getting credit..I am not getting credit for all the higher AD location achievements which includes the rare dye ultimately. I bet it never gets fixed either.
    Edited by c0rp on August 12, 2014 5:31PM
    Force weapon swap to have priority over EVERYTHING. Close enough.
    Make stamina builds even with magicka builds.
    Disable abilities while holding block.
    Give us a REASON to do dungeons more than once.
    Remove PVP AoE CAP. It is ruining Cyrodiil.
    Fix/Remove Forward Camps. They are ruining Cyrodiil.
    Impenetrability needs to REDUCE CRIT DAMAGE. Not negate entire builds.
    Werewolf is not equal to Vamps/Bats.

    Put in an in game ticket...you should be able to add screen shots of your map, current location, and lack of achievement. Likely something that can be fixed, in game.

    Heading to work, will throw in a bug report later when I get home and play (and do a complete check on what I should and shouldn't have).

    Got at least 2 dyes I shouldn't have that stood out (I don't have these Achievements, so the error isn't an Achievement I don't deserve, but just the dye):


    Master Angler --- Pink
    Undaunted Speed Dungeon Speed Run --- Akatosh scale gold

    Not sure if I am missing any yet.

    @traigusb14_ESO2‌, the achievements are jacked up, therefore the dyes are jacked up.

    So says my Coventant Hero that has not yet completed Main Quest. The same one that only knows 6 recipes at L50 provisioning has harvested less than 1000 mats, and only killed 4 frost atronachs in the entire span.

    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Earn it.

    IRL'ing for a while for assorted reasons, in forum, and in game.
    I am neither warm, nor fuzzy...
    Probably has checkbox on Customer Service profile that say High Aggro, 99% immunity to BS

    Mine are actually in good shape now, after months of coming and going, not having credit for exploration ones etc.. I logged in all my chars yesterday night and then went through my list.

    I'm having trouble getting collectibles to drop, but my achievements are all logged correctly now
