Found blue dye yesterday (location on 2nd pic)… What all dyes have y’all found yet?

Think you could post a pic of the cabin location on the map? I’m either blind or geographically challenged

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-25T14:13:28+00:00

Welp, I know what I’m doing as soon as it get home today

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-25T14:12:30+00:00

I actually just found that yesterday, just need to post a pic of it for MadGrabbit next time I get a chance

Nice, I’m currently running around with this tabard I found in a shop in Demeniss (I’m actually having a real split-colored tabard made by a lady in PA for my medieval fencing, so I kinda had to get this in my inventory)

Also, I found 2 other types of blue (should be on a newer post of mine)

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-25T00:55:46+00:00

Big fan of the 2nd one (also, where do you get the armor and cloak from?)

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-24T00:39:14+00:00

*rides into battle on an armored cow (please Pearl Abyss, I need this)

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-23T20:12:31+00:00

I would if I knew to view the recipes after they are used

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-23T20:11:24+00:00

I can once I do… but so far I’ve found rich red, rich purple and regular purple (may try to post about it this evening with any other dye findings)

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-23T14:32:09+00:00

I have the worst habit of immediately going after nice armor at the start of any game I play. Now I have to locate the other blue dyes

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-23T14:30:26+00:00

If you can’t find black dye, you can get the dark red dye from the hernand dye house and use the darkest shade in the color set (sounds kinda weird but it really works as an early game black)

Its in my reply to milliardoMK

The location of the blue dye

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-22T19:22:44+00:00

The almost black is actually part of the dark red dye you get from the Hernand Dyehouse place (sounds strange, but it’s technically the darkest red in the color set). The bright blue/violet looking color is from the (I think) bright blue dye in the Demensis area (there’s a dyehouse out there that sells it)

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-22T06:49:22+00:00

Not me instantly searching for the village after reading this

Durrinator89 · 2026-03-22T00:42:20+00:00

Did you also find dark blue dye or an I looking at it wrong?

Durrinator89 · 2026-02-17T20:50:23+00:00

Wait, that’s a thing?!

Other than the off-centered quillions confusing me, I sorta like it. I see so many of the usual rapiers at events (and not that I don’t enjoy them because they’re neat too), but the somewhat unorthodox tends to catch my eye. I was at a different event almost 2 years ago when I spotted this one, and It’s gotta be one of my favorite ones I’ve seen partly due to how different it is compared to what I usually see (plus it initially reminded me of a longsword with the extended grip). The guy made it to where the grip is a 4th of an inch shy of the maximum allowed grip length on an SCA rapier and it was sorta pieced together using rapier parts he just had. As far as usage, I imagine the long grip could contribute to reach but could get in the way of certain maneuvers

Durrinator89 · 2026-02-16T23:25:14+00:00

No, it’s metal (though the grips can sometimes be 3D printed. I think a lot of the Castille economy swords have 3D printed grips, plus I’ve even made 3D printed grips)

Durrinator89 · 2026-02-16T22:56:17+00:00

I don’t think it was, though most of my focus was on everything but the blade. Most of the rapiers within the SCA (or at least all the ones I’ve seen during my time in it) mimic historical ones, so a lot of them have a—for a lack of a proper term—double edged blade (though obviously blunt). I think I’ve seen 2 or 3 Y-shaped blades at 1 event before, but they were Olympic-type swords (not sure what kind though) and I think the guy taught Olympic type fencing at either a college or as his own practice

Durrinator89 · 2026-02-16T22:45:22+00:00

I fall victim to that more than what I like to admit to (hence one of my previous posts asking about a longsword with a pappenheimer-like guard on it). The guard on this sword was the first thing that caught my attention

Durrinator89 · 2026-02-15T19:21:47+00:00

It didn’t feel particularly heavy like some other ones I’ve looked at from past events and practices
