  • Many un-altered weapons, and a few un-altered armors, are now dye-able in a dye tub. In most cases this will be play and find out to see what can be done. One notable example is nightmare black leathers can be dyed. Once dyed, these items are considered altered and cannot be dyed again.
  • You should now be able dye and re-dye crafted items. If a crafted item doesn't want to dye, use a cleaning cloth to set it to appearance "1 - a crafted thing" and try to put it in the tub again.
  • When crafted runestones are available through Enchanting, they will be able to be dyed once only. Non-crafted runestones sold in the game today cannot be dyed.
