Clothing into Outfits: please fix color channels

[Ashantara.8731]

I _just_ noticed the second tab on the Black Lion Exchange Specialist. Yay! <3 :)

 

However, there are two things that could be improved:

* The original outfit has four dye channels, but when you apply dye yourself, two channels are merged into one. :(

* A small wish: Could you please fix the clown shoes? ;) The tips always looked weird that way.

Hasn't it been this way for months?

I think they put that in back in December. ;) But it's still a very nice change that still makes me happy.

What?!? How could I miss that? :o

It has been, but was only on an NPC in the LA TP. Warning, Ashantara, when this first came out there was a huge boom in people using and selling off the outfit tonics, so many of them are very limited supply now and are thus rather pricey.

It was easy to miss, being only 2 sentences in the [game update note](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/20444/game-release-notes-december-12-2017#latest) back in December.

 

>An outfit version of all 14 of the endless tonics for town clothing has been added to the game for convenience. Each tonic may be exchanged for a matching wardrobe unlock at the Black Lion Trading Post in Lion's Arch.

Well, it was also all over the forums for a bit. Eg:

But people that don't frequent the forums could well have missed it.

I was busy with holiday preparations at the time. ;)

 

Anyway, the color channels need to be fixed (see my edit of the OP).

[Donari.5237]

I do see the edit. The "clown shoes" are the riding boots. Which they likely stuck in the outfits, along with the jodhpurs, because they were race neutral. I really wish they'd used the Fancy Winter boots instead >< Along with cultural pants, maybe, at least for human males the hoodie plus trousers plus winter boots made a super casual and comfy look that my scruffy guardian neeeeds.

Yes, I don't know what it is with ANet and those boots. Quite a few outfits have them, and this one element is the one sore spot in those.

 

But the color channel thing is worse. Some of those new tonic-into-outfits have the accurate four channels, but some don't. For instance, the **Ornate Clothing Outfit** has **four visible channels**, with shirt and pants being two different colors (one purple, the other black). Yet, when you try to dye the shirt, it automatically dyes the pants along with it - that is just wrong.

[Rauderi.8706]

It is a bit disappointing that the dye channels on some of the outfits fill both the top and the bottom. Makes it look like I'm wearing an infant's romper rather than some spiffy adventure clothes. >.>

[Fraghound.5730]

Yes yes YES please fix the dye channels, I loved it when it was 4 dye options that showed but now it's just 3 and one that... isn't there? It doesn't show up at all. Kinda disappointing considering the price of some of the tonics. (Hoodies of any kind for example...)
