| 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 (purple, 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, backpack or hotbar (not the bank). 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. Bring the materials I ask for and I will craft it for you."
Rainbow Cosmetics
Rainbow Cape
Required: 1 Purple Cape + 1 Blue Cape + 1 Green Cape + 1 Red Cape + 1 Yellow Cape + 1 Orange Cape + 1 White Cape
Output: 1 Rainbow Cape — every colour rewoven into one, with the hues flowing down it as you move
- Fully tradeable
- Kept in the cosmetics bag
- 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 — the six colours melted into one banded rainbow cone
- Fully tradeable
- Kept in the cosmetics bag
- 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 show every colour of their set at once, 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.
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Smithing requirement | None — cosmetic weaving is separate from smithing |
| Level gates | None — any player can weave |
| Materials | Only cosmetics (from the cosmetics bag, backpack or hotbar) |
| Crafting time | 30 seconds per item |
| Output | Rainbow variant (tradeable cosmetic) |
Weaving requires no skill progression.
