That said, I know this is just my own personal opinion as someone who is pretty stingy on my use of dyes...
And what I'm gonna do with my archer? He can't live without perma- dye.
Noooo pls!
you can still obtain them for 95emp
I don't particularly see why Apothecary Dyes have to be gotten rid of as far as from the Elite boxes goes.
One thing that could've happened is cutting the % chance for Apothecary Dyes in half, and filling the other % half with the chance to obtain Strongbox Keys. This way, people who want Apothecary Dyes still have the chance to obtain them from their Elite boxes, and a small, but steady supply of Keys makes it's way into the game.
As it stands, I don't really see much of an issue with the Strongbox Keys. As far as I'm aware - correct me if I'm wrong - but you can still obtain Keys in three ways; Via EMP, via the Reward Store, and via Corsair's Stronghold.
Apothecary Dyes can only be gained from EMP or the Elite boxes currently. If this change goes through [and it seems like it is], then you'll only have a pay-to-win option to obtain Dyes. Or rather, to rephrase, the incoming supply of Apothecary Dyes will be entirely dictated via EMP sales, while there will be 4 ways to obtain Strongbox Keys.
For some servers, like Celestial Hills, who have exorbitant pricing on their Apothecary Dyes, could see their market skyrocket, which is no good for people who don't own any dyes.
This comes from someone who has over 300 dyes on MT alone, so it's not like I don't benefit from this. But for people who don't have any dyes, shelling out potentially a lot more just to customize their look seems entirely arbitrary given it's replacement.
you can obtain from federations bills shop .....................
I just noticed my thread got derailed into Apothecary Dyes, main point of this thread was the highlights of bugfixes BHS performs, I mean game-breaking bugs have priority, but looking at this specific note on the Tuwangi gathering Sun Essence. Now Wind Essence and they fixed it by just making it Wind Essence now, I still remember that before F&F patch (Archer Revamp) I gathered Sun Essence in Tuwangi Mire, whatever they did, instead of fixing it, they decided to go with this instead.
