With the release of 7.05, Monk's artifact armor has seem some pretty significant changes to how the 2nd dye affects the chest piece. Essentially, when before the 2nd dye would change the shoulder and hip sections, it now changes the red part of the chest piece. Here's a quick before and after.
Before patch :
After patch, same dyes :
After patch, trying to get as close as possible to pre patch :
While it makes perfect sense to me that the red part of the chest piece be dyeable, removing the ability to dye the black shoulder and hip sections does remove our ability to make this outfit less busy.
I would usually not comment on dyeing options, but since SE went in and made changes already, I would like to suggest further changes. Dye 1 could stay the same when undyed, but when applying a dye, I believe it would be better for the black shoulder and right side of the hip be included in dye 1. That way we'd be able to make the same glams as pre patch, while keeping the new patch change.
On a side note, I'd also like to point out that the head piece's 2nd dye still changes the greenish ribbon instead of the red ribbon. Despite this greenish color being present and undyeable all over the armor. So you're not stuck with red anymore on the chest piece, but you're still stuck with red on your head piece anyway.
A quick fix would be to swap the dyeable ribbon to be the red one.
I love this artifact armor, so I really hope we can get the best of both worlds in a future patch.
