If you can, try viewing it from a different monitor make/model. All monitors present colors ever so slightly differently, it's possible yours is just adding a bit more red than should be the case.

Danikat.8537 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 It's a pretty close match for the purple dye in-game. Admittedly I rarely use that on my main character who wears a lot of 'purple' - orchid and indigo are probably the dyes I use most on her, but that's because I prefer the blue end of the purple range to the red end.

I also heard that you could take the picture into any graphics software and use the color picker tool to figure out it’s RGB and color name. Thank you for the link, really usefull :) And yeah.. we can see there that magenta (i still think the mask is closest to the ingame magenta than any other dye) belongs as well to the purple as to the pink shades. Probably the pinkest (if there is such a word) shade among the other purples but still.... It's the edge where pink ends and purple begins (or vice versa) and might also explain why someone defines it as pink and someone else as purple.

It is likely the OP's improper monitor calibration. They are probably running on 100% brightness and don't have the colors adjusted properly, either.

It's the edge where pink ends and purple begins (or vice versa) and might also explain why someone defines it as pink and someone else as purple. The closest match is not magenta but bloodstone indigo (you can see it best on exalted shoulders wich have the same glowy aura). May differ on clothes that aren't shiny though (and differ between armor weights then ofc) but still fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
