*I am listing crafted dyes only, for now.*

With patch 2.1, there are 20 new colors of dye in the game, 6 crafted dyes and 14 vendor dyes. They freaking added 6 brown dyes while purple only got 2!!!! NO, I am not jealous at all. (TwT) Uguuuuuuuuuguuuuuuuugh! (crying noise) Green got 5 new colors. Blue also got 5. Finally, there are 1 yellow and 1 orange.

You can see the list here http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/03843d6bf7ba69adc37d7955ff7af43f3c43828a under “New dyes have been added.”

Patch 2.1’s New Crafted Dyes:
Sunset Orange
Kobold Brown
Ochu Green
Othard Blue
Storm Blue
Plum Purple

(But where is my lavender purple!? Wahhhhh /cry)

Patch 2.1’s New Vendor Dyes:
Qiqirn Brown
Aldgoat Brown
Acorn Brown
Shale Brown
Coeurl Yellow
Raisin Brown
Lime Green
Marsh Green
Cactuar Green
Turquoise Green
Seafog Blue
Peacock Blue
Raptor Blue
Currant Purple

The new vendor dyes are sold from beast tribe vendors, according to gamerescape.com. However, in order to be able to purchase these new dyes from the beastmen vendors, I need to not only unlock the access to beast tribe vendor, but also need to gain enough reputation to step up in Beast Tribe Relations rank. Currently I am at Neutral with the Sylphs, which is the first rank. And I will need 150 reputation points to be able to get a promotion to next rank. Each day, I can take 3 daily quests from the Sylphs. So it means it will take me at least 10 days to get to 2^nd rank. However, there is no guarantee that the next rank will enable me to buy dyes from the Sylphic Vendor, as I have no idea which rank the dyes are at. The same goes for the Amalj’aa.

So today I’ll just post the pics for the new crafted dyes first. Unfortunately, I no longer own the same sets of gear I used when I compared old crafted dyes. Therefore, I am going to show the new crafted dyes on 3 sets of craft class specific equipment (lv 50 gear).

Normal colors (default colors):

Sunset Orange:

Kobold Brown:

Ochu Green:

Othard Blue:

Storm Blue:

Plum Purple:

Oh, and here’s a bonus pic (below), my usual dyes color on these 3 sets of gear. I use the combination of Lotus Pink, Regal Purple and Abyssal Blue. And then, only on the Goldsmith’s Gloves, I used Snow White Dye.
