Dyes can be made using recipes you find in crates. You can also get individual dyes, but not necessarily the recipe to recreate them, from crates, leveling up, and completing quests.
Dyes are used to customize, individualize, and beautify your tribespeople. They do not increase skills, but change the color of the clothing items they are being applied to. Keep in mind, once the item of clothing is dyed, it can not be dyed again - the color can not be changed.
Recipes[]
You can only find recipes for dyes in crates.
Every recipe includes a berry and some other item or two like bird guano, mushrooms, stardust, moondust, golden relics, shells, or more berries.
