In the barbarian MMO Conan Exiles, dyes can also be crafted since the last patch. We explain how to craft the colors and dye your clothing and armor here.
On March 23, the first major content patch for Conan Exiles was released, which brought a “soft server wipe” along with some new features. Among them was a long-awaited system for dyeing clothes and armor, allowing you to create your dream outfit or set up a unified clan uniform. But how do you get the coveted dyes?
Conan Exiles: Crafting Dyes – First, you need glass bottles!
Before the colorful fun starts, you first need a bottle to fill your color. But before you can start making the bottles, you need glass. Glass, in turn, is made from crystals that you find in caves in the center of the map and directly north of it. Two crystals yield a glass sheet in the blacksmith’s forge together with fuel.
Next, you create a mold for glass bottles at the blacksmith station using 15 iron ingots. You only need the mold once, as it is reusable. Then place the mold along with three glass sheets and fuel in the oven to make enough bottles for your needs.
Conan Exiles: Colors and Dyes – How to Craft Dyes
Once you have enough bottles, fill them all at the well or the river/lake with water. Depending on which color you want, you will need to gather different ingredients for color pigments. The following table shows you what you need and where to find it:
We have also compiled detailed guides for the locations and crafting of sulfur and tar.
If you have the necessary color pigments in sufficient quantity, throw them along with the filled bottle into the braziers’ cauldron. The colors produced can then be darkened or lightened with the dyes “white” and “black”. The mentioned shades cannot be directly applied.
Conan Exiles – Dyes – How to Dye Clothes and Apply Dyes
Once you have enough colors, you just need to apply them. But how? This step is quite simple, as you just need to select the desired piece of clothing or armor in your inventory and click on “Dye”. You will find the button below the inventory window next to the options for repairing or dropping. Simply select your desired colors from the following menu, and you’ll be the perhaps most colorful barbarian in the wasteland!
