Author Topic: Location of the Dyes(pics)  (Read 3273 times)

Everyone knows how hard/difficult it is to locate the dyes. Most maps give the wrong location or aren't very accurate. My goal is to take screenshots of each dye location and pictures of the surrounding area to help you locate these treasures. The first screenshot is usually of the area surrounding the location while the second screenshot is of the boxes themselves.

Please note that you may not get a dye in the boxes you smash. The dyes appear to be in random boxes, so just smash them all until you find the dye you're searching for. This is just a warning so you don't post in this topic "I couldn't find the dye in the box, you liar. >:("

Unless you want to keep the 'adventure' element to Age of Time and search for the dyes yourself, read on.

Note from Madhatter: I'm taking screenshots in the order of which I find them, so I may be missing some when this topic goes up. Feel free to add screens of your own or wait until I finish locating the missing ones.

A list of all the dyes:
Red*
Yellow
Blue*
Green*
Cyan*
Brown
Black*
Magenta
Orange

*These colors have a second version of them that contains the words "Light" or "Pure" in front of them, making them either lighter or darker than the originals.


1. Bleach
This is located in the shop in Port Town for 300 gold pieces.


2. (Light) Blue
I've been told there is a blue around the same area, just like Light Cyan is located near Cyan. Anyways, the Blue dyes are located in the center of the Port Town lake.



3. (Light)Cyan
Located in the swamp, mostly in the actual swamp itself.



4. Black/Magenta
Located in the volcano in a little room behind the smoke.




5. Red
South east of the log challenge, keep heading in that direction until you reach a dark pit.



6. (Light)Green
In the woods, just run around in a circle for a while and you'll find one eventually.



7. Yellow
Head northwest from the woods until you get to Auric Fields. Look around for the boxes near the pillars. Thanks to Wedge for this information.



8. Brown

9. Orange

Don't forget you can mix these dyes and form new ones of different colors!

Each dye has an RGB value (thats red, green, blue)
When you mix two dyes together, it divides both RGB values in half and adds them together.  For example mixing magenta (255 0 255) and bright cyan (0 255 255), would get you a light blue color (128 128 255)

Wedge appears to be correct.
Bright Blue (0 0 255) + Bright Yellow (255 255 0) = Gray (128 128 128)
Bright Red (255 0 0) + Bright Cyan ( 0 255 255) = Gray (128 128 128)
Bright Green (0 255 0) + Magenta (255 0 255) = Gray (128 128 128)

It seems I need some help locating the Orange, Brown, [s]Yellow[/s], and possibly Light Red dyes. If you have information on them, please post them in this topic.

Light red are a random drop from red crates. Yellow are found in fields north west of the Forest. Every dye and vial can be dropped from the crates in dungeon 1. This is the only place orange and brown dyes can be found.

there's also a pitch black
