Norn Predatory armor - some specific dye colors won't stick

Hello,

Have been having some trouble with dyes on the Norn Cultural Tier 2 medium armor (Predatory set). I posted a bug report a while back about dye colors not sticking to it, but got no reply. So I did some research myself and figured out exactly what is going on.

There are a couple of dyes that won’t stick – when you apply them, they just revert to the default colors and when you mouse over the color in the dye UI it just says “Dye Remover”. This is only for some very specific dye slot and dye color combinations, and follows:

1) When you apply the Pottery dye to the 1st dye slot (top one) of the Predatory Vest, it won’t stick.

2) When you apply the Moss dye to the 3rd dye slot (bottom right) of the Predatory Vest, it won’t stick.

3) When you apply the Pottery dye to the 2nd dye slot (bottom left) of the Predatory Leggings, it won’t stick.

4) When you apply the Moss dye to the 3rd dye slot (bottom right) of the Predatory Leggings, it won’t stick.

This is only the case for these exact combinations. I can apply any others colors to these dye slots and they stick. I can apply Moss and Pottery to other dye slots and they stick too (even Moss to the Pottery ones listed above, and vice versa). It’s just these specific slots combined with these specific colors exactly and nothing else.

Both the Moss and Pottery dyes are actually both colors that are used in the default Predatory set, though none of the slots above have those color combinations by default… if that makes sense. Maybe the fact that they’re both part of the default color scheme is somehow causing the bug.

If I could get some sort of reply that you’re looking into this, I’d appreciate it.

Hey there! Thank you for reporting this issue. However, I am looking for a bit more information to help us out with nailing this issue down.

I am assuming this is on the female set of the armor due to your descriptions of the dye slots, but can you verify the sex of your player?

Also, does this happen when all 6 pieces of armor are from the 2nd tier cultural set? Or do you have some other armors from different sets equipped as well?

Thank you!
