Minecraft is a game that stands out for its vast universes, where we have a huge number of different elements. This is something that makes millions of players hooked on it. One of those elements that we have in the game are the dyes or colors. As many of you may already know, in Minecraft there are a series of colors that we can obtain.
It is a total of 16 tones that we can obtain in the well-known game. To use them we are going to need those color pigments. About the colors in Minecraft, the way in which they can be obtained we will tell you more below. Since they are something that many players are interested in but do not know how they can reach them, but the reality is that it is something simple in the game.
Dyes in Minecraft
Dyes are an element that we can use in the game. The purpose of these dyes is to be able to change the color of certain objects in Minecraft. They can be used to change the color of wool, leather armor, creatures, glass, banners, hardened clay, or water in cauldrons, for example. So we can use them in various situations in the well-known game and thus change the appearance of those objects.
There are a total of 16 dyes available in the game.. To obtain it, various elements will be used, but this is where those colors or color pigments that we have mentioned come into play, which we will have to find in Minecraft. In addition, the tints can be divided according to color, so that we find primary colors and also secondary colors. All of them will be necessary to be able to create those dyes that we will use to change the appearance of objects in the game.
The key in this case is get the pigments for the primary dyes in the game. So we already have those essential colors in Minecraft. Then it will be possible to use or carry out mixtures of them to arrive in this way at those colors or secondary dyes at all times.
Wool
Dyes in Minecraft are used to change the color of objects, as we have already mentioned. This is something that can be used with the wool in the game or any object that is made with wool, so that that wool will become the color that we have chosen. This is a customization option that is of interest to many players in Minecraft and is useful. In addition, in the case of wool it goes further.
Since you can apply the dye directly to the sheep. You can change that color of the wool by applying the dye directly to a sheep that we have in our account in the game. So if you don't want to wait until you have the wool, you can bet on using the dye on that sheep directly.
Get the color pigments
As we have mentioned, primary colors or tints are the first thing to get in Minecraft. Since they form the basis for any future combinations we want to make, so it makes sense that we go looking for those first. There are a total of seven primary dyes that we will be able to create in the game, each with its own color pigment. In addition, some of the so-called secondary dyes can be obtained in various ways, since they can be born from the combination of two pigments, but there are also plants that we can use for them.
We leave you with the list of dyes in the game and the way in which they are achieved, through those color pigments. So we also tell you what color pigment is needed and the way in which we are going to obtain them in our account. This already provides you with the information you need in this case:
- White dye: obtained with bone powder.
- Green dye: it will be possible to obtain it by burning a block of cactus in an oven.
- Brown dye: cocoa is needed that we will put on the crafting table later.
- Yellow dye: obtained from the dandelion flower or a sunflower.
- Black dye: we use squid ink for it.
- Blue Dye: Obtained with lapis lazuli from the mine.
- Red dye: it will be possible to obtain it with the flower of the rose, the poppy or the tulip.
- Cyan dye: combines blue dye and green dye and is obtained directly.
- Gray dye: combining squid ink and bone powder.
- Light Blue Dye – Combining Lapis Lazuli and Bone Dust, but can also be obtained from Blue Orchid.
- Light Gray Dye: Combining Squid Ink and two units of Bone Dust.
- Magenta tint: Combine the lilac tint and the pink tint.
- Orange Dye: Obtained by combining Red Dye and Yellow Dye and also with the Orange Tulip.
- Pink Dye: Combining red dye and bone dust.
- Lilac tint: combining lapis lazuli and red tint.
- Lime Green Dye: Combine Green Dye and Bone Dust.
Combinations
We have mentioned that there are several types of dyes, many of them are the so-called secondary dyes, which are born from combinations of other colors that we have obtained before. If we intend to create any of these combinations, because we want to use a certain dye with some object in the game, then we will have to use the crafting table for it.
That is, if we are going to create light gray tint, we will have to color squid ink and two units of powder of bone on the crafting table, so the result is that light gray tint that we wanted to have. Then we can use it with an object whose appearance we want to change, for example. This is something that applies for any of the secondary dyes where the elements of two different colors are going to be combined.
Preparation of the ingredients
As you can see, several of these dyes or colors in Minecraft are obtained from plants or flowers. Our task will then be to locate those plants or flowers and obtain them, since we are going to use them next to create that dye in question. Once we already have these plants, one of the doubts of many users is what we have to do with them so that that color can be obtained then.
What we have to do is place those plants or flowers on the crafting table in the game. This is the only way in which we are going to then arrive at those colors that we want in the game. So of course you have to have that crafting table and use it then for it.
In other of these dyes bone powder is used. This is something we're gonna get putting an egg on the crafting table and then you get the same. It is important that you do this on a regular basis, because this bone powder is an ingredient or pigment that we use a lot in the game, as you will have seen in the recipes that we have indicated above. In the case of the green color, a block of cactus is going to be used, which we are going to have to cook, so that we obtain that dye. The blue color depends on the lapis lazuli, which is something that is obtained from that stone in the mines of the game. Once inside the mine, you have to chop to obtain this stone, which will be the one we use in that color or tint.
The color black is an important color in this case, as we will be using it in various color schemes in Minecraft. It is a color that comes from squids, from their ink, to be specific. In order to obtain it we will have to kill the squids first, something that many players in the game may not know. So once you have killed them, you will be able to get the ink and thus the black dye is created.
Use the dyes
When we have the ingredients we need for those dyes or colors in Minecraft, it's time to create those combinations or change the appearance of some of the objects in which they can be used. This is something we're going to do on the game's crafting table. What we are going to have to do is place that dye on the table, as well as a decorative block, which is that object that we want to have a color in question.
Thus, when we have placed these elements on the crafting table, its color will be changed. You will see that this object or block changes its appearance. If we have used a crystal, the crystal will have the color of the tint that we have selected, either a primary tint or a secondary one. The process is the same with any object that we want to have a different color in our account in the popular game. So we are simply going to have to repeat the steps as many times as we want to change the color of that object in question.
