Secondary Metallic Red Dye Module

SWTOR Secondary Metallic Red Dye Module

Source: Retired Promotion

When you use the Secondary Metallic Red Dye Module, it will dye the secondary dye section of your armor Metallic Red, and will leave the primary dye section of your armor its original color. You can not combine it with a different primary dye module.

Preview First: Before purchasing this dye, you can preview it with your armor by CTRL+LEFT CLICKING the dye item while you are also previewing the armor you want to dye. Dyes sometimes appear differently on different textures and types of armor.

One-use: All dye modules are one-use, so once you've added a Secondary Metallic Red Dye Module to your armor, you will not be able to remove it and reuse it later.

Added to game files in patch 7.5.0b

SWTOR Retired Promotional Dyes

These dyes are all from older promotions or special events that are no longer available in any way.

Dye Changes

The developers released an intriguing statement about dyes during the 7.6 Developer Livestream. We don't know when or how it will affect the Secondary Metallic Red Dye Module.

'Speaking of dyes, we’ve got something we’d like to talk about – dye pack updates. In the game, we’ve had a lot of feedback about how dye packs are purchased and stored and applied to the character and we want to re-evaluate that system. And so while we are doing that, and before that picture solidifies, we do want to go ahead and make the cartel market sale of 50% off all dye packs starting November 14th [2024]. We are trying to improve how the player experience is around dye packs, so that’s what our intention is until we settle that out. They’ll be on 50% off sale.'

I found this specific dye worked really strange on the normal armor I tested it on - the red ended up dark red, though most other dyes turned out fantastic on this armor. This is what it looked like on my armor - though it's confusing because the chestpiece is non-metallic red by default.


These dyes are from the Master the Fight: Firebolt Edition Bundle. Players who bought the bundle got these dyes in addition to game time, Cartel Coins, and a mount. The dyes were delivered via mailbox, as 5 copies each per character. If you have this bundle and have lost or used your dyes, they are legacy-bound, so just make a new character to generate new copies.
