Baldur’s Gate 3 Dyes: How Get All Dye Colors & Use Them in BG3

Here's how to find and use all dyes to change clothes' color in Baldur's Gate 3.

Like most RPGs, loot comes from the pockets of fallen enemies or from raiding treasure chests. Baldur’s Gate 3 is no exception.

However, most armor and clothing come with a default color that can be changed with dyes. Here’s how to get all dye colors and use them in BG3.

Where to Get Dyes in Baldur’s Gate 3

Dyes can be found from looting corpses and emptying chests. You can also buy dyes—here are three stores to get dyes in each act:

  • Act 1: Arron’s Store in Emerald Grove’s The Hollow.
  • Act 2: Quartermaster Talli in the Last Light Inn.
  • Act 3: Carm’s Garms in Baldur’s Gate.

Keep in mind that vendors won’t have a fixed collection of dyes at any moment. They will cycle through dye collections after a long rest. So, if there’s a certain dye color you want from a vendor, purchase it immediately or you could miss out.

Can You Combine Dyes?

As of now, it is not possible to combine dyes in BG3, at least not without modding. When you use a dye on any piece of gear, it’ll simply overwrite the previous dye. It might be possible in the future to combine dyes, as Larian Studios is always adding updates to their games, but you’ll have to wait until then before brewing some crazy colors together.
