FIXED Earrings of Protection: Are They Dyeable?

[Brosephine]

Is this item able to be hued, and if so, with what? I tried using plant dye, but it wouldn't accept it. Will they only take Tokuno dye? Or the pigments from the Clean Up Britannia turn in?

I didn't want to post this in the "Report A Bug" forum, because there may not be anything incorrect here. However, I would like it to be looked into to see if they should be dyeable with plant dye, and to find out what will work to dye them! Thanks!

I have no idea here. I did a quick search on Stratics and found one post that said you could while another that said you could not. Will need to look into this deeper. If they can be, will be an easy fix.

Dyes
Each bottle of dyes has a total of 5 charges. Once used up, the bottle will be destroyed.
Players can use these dyes to rehue:

• Armor (leather and metal)
• Weapons
• Clothing and all items normally dyable with regular dye tub
• Bags, chests, boxes and crates
• Spellbooks (including other non-mage spellbooks) & Runebooks
• Statuettes
• Artifacts and magical items dyable with Tokuno dyes
• Books
• Jewelry <-----

These dyes essentially combine the ability of all currently available dye tubs and Tokuno dyes.

Moving this to bug reports while we investigate.

Thanks for looking into it, O'Malley! Seems like plant dyes should work... I look forward to the results of Dan's investigation!

Update: I realized that attempting to use plant dye on the earrings uses a charge without actually dyeing the earrings. So YEAH... this is a bug.

I have confirmed on UO that you can dye these.

I just tried to dye my earrings of protection with plant dye again, and it didn't work. It did take ANOTHER charge away from my plant dye though.

Thanks looking into it.
