| Services | Weaves rainbow cosmetics from colour sets |
Zahir the Dyeweaver is an NPC who operates an outdoor stall in The Dunes (West). He weaves complete colour sets into rare rainbow cosmetics — capes and party hats in every shade imaginable.
No Smithing skill required. Bring a full set of matching coloured cosmetics and Zahir transforms them into unique rainbow variants.
How to weave cosmetics
Visit Zahir's stall in The Dunes (West) with a complete colour set:
| Cosmetic | Required set | Output | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rainbow Cape | 7 capes (violet, blue, green, red, yellow, orange, white) | 1 Rainbow Cape | 30 seconds |
| Rainbow Party Hat | 6 hats (blue, green, purple, red, white, yellow) | 1 Rainbow Party Hat | 30 seconds |
All materials must be in your cosmetics bag or inventory. Hand them over, wait 30 seconds, and receive the woven rainbow item.
Dialogue
When you approach Zahir:
"Easy now — threads everywhere. My brothers to the east forge steel and string; I stitch what you wear…"
Rainbow Cosmetics
Rainbow Cape
Required: 1 Violet Cape + 1 Blue Cape + 1 Green Cape + 1 Red Cape + 1 Yellow Cape + 1 Orange Cape + 1 White Cape
Output: 1 Rainbow Cape (cycles through all 7 colors when worn)
- Fully tradeable
- Unit item — kept in the cosmetics bag, consumed and granted one at a time (not a resource stack)
- No durability
- Cosmetic effect only (no stat bonus)
The recipe deliberately excludes the Flame Cape and Lightning Cape.
Rainbow Party Hat
Required: 1 Blue Party Hat + 1 Green Party Hat + 1 Purple Party Hat + 1 Red Party Hat + 1 White Party Hat + 1 Yellow Party Hat
Output: 1 Rainbow Party Hat (cycles through all 6 colors when worn)
- Fully tradeable
- Unit item — kept in the cosmetics bag, consumed and granted one at a time (not a resource stack)
- No durability
- Cosmetic effect only (no stat bonus)
Sourcing Colour Sets
Rainbow cosmetics require complete colour sets. Zahir does not sell individual colours — you must source them yourself:
| Cosmetic | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Coloured capes | Marketplace, player trades, previous events | Each colour is a separate cosmetic item |
| Coloured party hats | Marketplace, player trades, previous events | Each colour is a separate cosmetic item |
Assembling a full rainbow set requires gathering or trading for each individual colour variant.
Tips
- Complete sets only: Zahir requires ALL colours of a set. Missing even one colour means no weaving
- One at a time: Each craft weaves a single rainbow cosmetic — with multiple complete sets, weave them in succession (30 seconds each)
- Marketplace farming: Hunt the marketplace for missing colour variants to complete your sets
- Tradeable output: Woven rainbow cosmetics are fully tradeable — sell them or keep them for flex value
- Visual uniqueness: Rainbow items cycle through all their colours, making them visually distinctive from single-colour cosmetics
Cosmetic Weaving System
Zahir's weaving is unique to cosmetics — no gear, no tools, no resources other than the cosmetics themselves.
