Arena Gladiator helmet dye issue

Kheldoric

Hello everyone.

Yesterday I acquired the Arena Gladiator helmet from the Cyrodiil dailies, excited as I was for this great looking helmet that was teased I ran to the outfit station to adjust my outfit accordingly for it.

Alas, it is here where I discovered an issue/bug/oversight on the item.

The hat as it stands only has 2 dye slots, instead it the standard 3. One for the metal base of the helmet itself, a second for the two straps at the back of the helmet. Which means that the mane/plum that makes this helmet so beautiful cannot be dyed. Leaving it an oddish brown/orange

So my report or request depending on how its implanted originally. Is to add a third dye slot for the mane. An important feature I think for a helmet that alot of people will grind for simply for that sole visual.

Surely you'll agree?

Sincerely Kheldoric

    It should have a slot for the mane.

    Definitely an issue that needs fixing, makes no sense to have it not be dyeable. Need my horsehair plume to be red.

    Wow, that is really disappointing! Hard to understand why that decision was made...

    Yeah I hate it when some things just dye... Weirdly or incorrectly.

    On a different note, nice outfit.

    My goodness! I wasn't actually super excited for this but was grinding it out...

    Seeing it makes me kinda pumped. Looks great.

    Good call on the dye issue, though. Having the crest dyeable would kick this helm up to the next level.

    This. Very weird decision, makes no sense and devalues for me the helm.

    Thanks for the feedback thus far guys, lets keep it coming! :smile:

    It is indeed a shame, and hopefully nothing but an oversight to be fixed. It would be an irritation and as it stands, is an irritation for people who grinded for it, or bought it from the Guild traders for a considerable sum. Only to find out it can't be dyed. Rendering potential outfit or dye plans useless.

    I'll keep on hoping and bumping.

    Here I was hoping to make an arena team and we'd all wear this hat with blue crest but nooooo....

    Up, with Wolfhunter we got arena gladiator costume - where you can dye whole thing. And yet you still can't dye plume on gladiator arena helmet.

    In which update will it be fixed?

    a) Wrathstone DLC
    b) Elsweyr Chapter
    c) Unannounced Q3 DLC dungeon pack
    d) Unannounced Q4 DLC story zone
    e) None.

    Marvelous job with upcoming content, but please, take care of this simple thing. All we ask for is dyable plume.

    I agree, I got it thinking it would.

    It totally needs one.

    Yea I won't use it for that reason as well. I use Militant Ordinator instead.

    Order of the Hour helmet motif/style is very similar to Arena Gladiator helmet, but you can dye plume of Order of the Hour helmet.

    This is an example of the helmet dyed in Akatosh's Scales Gold and Red Diamond Red:
