Dye
Dye exists in seven hues, plus the black dye. Dye is used to colour items: most commonly capes, but also certain quest items. Dyes can be made quickly by using the required ingredients on the person making the dye, given you have enough of the item and the required coins in your inventory.
They can also be bought from the Lletya Seamstress in Lletya and Guinevere's Dyes in Prifddinas, but this requires starting Mourning's End Part I and completion of Song of the Elves respectively.
Standard dyes
Standard dyes can be used to dye capes and goblin mail.

- Aggie the witch (Draynor Village) and Ali the dyer (Pollnivneach) make primary colours of dye for 5 coins (Aggie) or 25 coins (Ali) plus ingredients. If you "use" the ingredients (3 redberries, 2 onions, or 2 woad leaves) Aggie will automatically make the dye, saving you from clicking through all of the dialogue options.
- A bottle of red dye spawns in the Sisterhood Sanctuary on the road leading towards the sanctuary.
- A bottle of orange dye spawns in Shayzien Styles, the shop run by Osten in Shayzien.
- A bottle of purple dye spawns by the bridge across River Dougne in the southern part of East Ardougne. Very close to the Khazard Battlefield Spirit Tree. Another bottle of purple dye can be found upstairs in the church in Hosidius.
- An infinite amount of red and yellow dye can be taken from the shelves at Mary and Gordon's farm, just south of the Farming Guild.
Pink dye
Pink dye is members only and can be bought from Betty in the Magic Shop in Port Sarim for 20 coins, after you have completed The Hand in the Sand quest. It can be made during the quest by using redberries and white berries with a special vial of water.
Pink dye can be used to create a pink cape, craft a pink origami balloon and to make Pink goblin mail. It is also an ingredient used in making the Zen theme for a Superior garden in a player's house.
Black dye
Black dye is members only and player made during the Shadow of the Storm, Land of the Goblins and The Golem quests. The dye is made by using a Pestle and mortar on a Black Mushroom with a Vial present in your inventory. It can be used to dye capes, desert robes, goblin mails, origami balloons, and the Silverlight sword.
Abyssal dyes
Abyssal dyes are members only and can be obtained as a drop from the Guardians of the Rift minigame. They are used to recolour the Raiments of the Eye set.
Three dyes exist:
Abyssal red dye
Abyssal blue dye
Abyssal green dye
Dark dye
Dark dye is members only and can be purchased from the Mysterious Stranger in the Hallowed Sepulchre for 300 Hallowed Marks. It is used to recolour the Graceful outfit.
Quests
Some quests require dyes to complete. Here is a list of these quests along with which dyes are needed:
- Ghosts Ahoy - 3 random dyes (possible to be primary OR secondary colours) (Bring 3 of each primary for no extra trips)
- Goblin Diplomacy - Blue and Orange dye (1 of each primary)
- Mourning's End Part I - Red, Yellow, Blue and Green dye (Bring extras in case of error)
- Prince Ali Rescue - Yellow dye
- Hand in the Sand - Pink dye (Created with Redberries and White berries during the quest, purchasable from Betty after quest completion)
- Enlightened Journey - Red and Yellow dye
- Recipe for Disaster - Blue, green, or purple
- Getting Ahead - Red dye
- Eagles' Peak - Yellow dye
- Song of the Elves - Red and Purple dye
- Land of the Goblins - Yellow, Blue, Orange, Purple and Black dye (created with empty vial, mushroom and pestle and mortar during quest)
Assuming blue dye is used during Recipe for Disaster, the number of dyes required to complete all quests is 6 Yellow dyes, 6 Red dyes, 5 Blue dyes, some of which will be mixed together, and 3 of each primary so no extra trips are needed during Ghosts Ahoy.
