Armor tinting

 in Dragon Age: Inquisition allows you to recolour the armor items worn by your Inquisitor or companions. A special crafting table is required, and can be found in the Undercroft at Skyhold.

Tinting Slots
There are four slots used to tint the different parts of a piece of armor: Not all types of armor will have all four components, and you do not need to use all the slots when tinting.
 * Metal: tints all components made of metal, such as breastplates for heavy armors or buckles/decorations for light armor.
 * Leather: tints all components made of leather, such as gloves, boots, and belts.
 * Cloth 1: tints the primary cloth components of armor, such as robes or straps.
 * Cloth 2: tints the secondary cloth component of armor, such as scarves or contrasting details.

Tint Colors
Each of the Crafting materials will tint an armour component a different color. Some colours may appear different due to the base "texture" of the component being tinted or the way the light hits that element.

Cloth
Note 1: Unless otherwise specified, the texture of the underlying fabric will apply to the new color.

Note 2: Depending on the cloth being coloured, this tint will be matte or metallic.

Note 3: Velvets have a two-color effect with highlights being one color and shadows another, akin to nacré velvet or shot silk.
