Any Dye that is Silver on Metal but Blue on Cloth?

Vaoh · August 2016

Just wondering. Some dyes have effects like this.

Transliminal Violet is a shiny Yellow-Gold on Metals but a deep Blue-Violet on cloths.

Something like this, except with a sort of shiny Grey on Metals but a (preferably darker) Blue on cloth. Does it exist?

i was also going to suggest warrior steel,

maybe cyrodilic steel,

mundus blue maybe? it is a very light blue but may be worth a look.

theres a also a teal color, that behaves very strangley on a lot of colors/fabrics may be worth a try (this is my fave colour because it behaves so strange

undaunted bronze has a blueish tint, but thats brass not silver but it does look great on HA

A very nice dark blue would be voidstone violet (from the veteran dungeon achievement that requires hard mode in most dungeons and a no-death in vCoH). I don't think it is that silvery color you want on metal but for that, maybe try warrior's steel (complete HRC trial, normal mode).

I would love to answer this, but every dye I have ever applied looks different on every material and racial style, sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically.

In other words, try them all, but at least start with the ones you think should have the color effect you want.

I have even gone to the Randomize route at the Dye Station as I have discovered color combos I would have never thought to use before. I have even found a black dye that actually comes out black, on low level armors from I think the Redguard style. Or it might be Breton or Imperial mixed in there too. I made this gear a long time ago, but dye it periodically.

@WhiteMage I was looking for a single dye. Currently Warrior's Steel provides a silver on metals but a very faded blue on cloth. Was hoping that a single dye would be similar but with a much stronger blue.

Costumes only give us three slots to dye, so it's important to have dyes that react differently based on what type of material it is. That's why I want to find a perfect dye for this.

Good point. Very true.

I'll take a look into these all. Thank you!
