Old armor continues to fall victim to Final Fantasy 14’s bizarre two-channel dye system, unless you’re super into changing the colour of teeny-tiny eyelets: ‘Why even bother at this point?’ TechTricks365
It only took a decade, but Final Fantasy 14 finally added an extra dye channel to a multitude of armour when Dawntrail released last year. It’s, unfortunately, been rather hit-or-miss, with that second dye channel ranging from changing actual important things like overcoats or stitching, to ridiculous details like a tiny belt buckle.
Older gear seems to have bore the brunt when it comes to ridiculous secondary dye channel choices, a trend that’s continued after Square Enix gave double dyes to a handful more gear with this week’s Patch 7.2.
