Revision 3

Overview

Oliver is a member of the Greymanes who serves as the dedicated dye vendor at the Greymane Camp. After being recruited to the camp, he sets up a Dyehouse where players can purchase dyes and customize the color and material appearance of their equipment. Oliver is one of three specialized NPCs who arrive at camp through the Solid Foundation questline, alongside Connor and Eric.

Location

Oliver operates the Dyehouse at Greymane Camp in Howling Hills. He arrives at camp after being recruited through the Greymane faction quest line. His tent is identifiable by the hanging cloth samples and dye bottles arranged on a workbench outside.

Recruitment

Oliver is recruited to the Greymane Camp by completing faction quests in the Solid Foundation questline. This questline brings three new NPCs to the camp:

Each NPC sets up a specialized stall upon arrival, expanding the camp's available services. Keep upgrading your camp and completing Greymane Commissions to recruit all three.

Services

Dyehouse

At Oliver's Dyehouse, players can customize the visual appearance of their gear using the Dye System. The following equipment categories can be dyed:

Each piece of gear is broken down into several dyeable parts, represented by a column of circles in the customization interface. This means you can dye the metal plates, leather straps, and cloth under-layers of a single chest piece in completely different colors.

All dye customization is purely cosmetic and does not affect equipment stats.

Regional Dye Specialization

Oliver sells regional dye colors that match the local Hernand palette. Every dyehouse merchant in the game is a specialist who only works with specific regional colors. For example, a Hernandian Red specialist cannot apply a Bright Yellow dye, even if you have learned that color. There are ten different dye specialists scattered across Pywel, each covering their own regional palette.

To use colors from other regions, visit the appropriate regional Dyehouse in that area's settlement. Additional Dyehouses can be found in settlements across the Demeniss, Pailune, and other regions.

Obtaining Dyes

Dyes can be acquired in several ways:

• Purchase from Oliver: Buy dyes directly from the Dyehouse using silver

• Find in the world: Dye bottles are scattered throughout Pywel, though most belong to someone else. You will need to wear a mask and steal them

• Craft at a cauldron: Dyes can be made from insects and flowers at a cauldron. Even without a recipe, you can select "improvise" to experiment and discover new colors

Once you acquire a dye, press "use" on it in your inventory to learn it permanently. The learned color then appears in the dye menu the next time you visit any compatible Dyehouse.
