Dyes are one of the coolest ways to customize the looks of your armor pieces in Crimson Desert. There are several ways to get them, including stealing them or crafting them using their respective recipes. However, there’s a cool alternative method to get them, which costs almost nothing at all.
How to get all dyes in Crimson Desert for free
For this method, you don’t need to spend any coins, since it involves gifting meat items to all the dyers. Since you can source meat for free, this method is the easiest way to get all the available dyes. You don’t even need any crafting materials as well.
The basic method is to reach trust level 100 with a dyer. When you do that, they will reward you with a random dye. The method, in principle, works in the same fashion as getting a new pet.
So, how do you get the meat items? The first step is to learn the Blinding Flash Finisher skill. You’ll need an Abyss Artifact and Level 5 Focus. Next, go to an area where there are plenty of different animals. Be careful not to get spotted while picking them up and butchering them, as it will then count as a crime.
Once you butcher the animals, use the Blinding Flash skill to direct sunlight on the meat and cook it until it turns brown. Pick up the cooked meat and look for vendors that are tagged as Dyer or Expert Dyer on the map. Give them the cooked meat, and it will increase their trust level. Repeat this for all the vendors, get the dyes, and save the game.
Reload your save, and you’ll have a new set of NPCs spawning with more dyes. Repeat the method, and you’ll soon find every dye possible. While this method is completely random, it’s the only free one to my knowledge that consistently rewards you with new colors.
