How to Get Reagents in Lost Ark?

The game rewards you with 30 of them after your 4th or 6th consecutive login, aside from that there’s really no other way to consistently getting reagents in this game. On top of that, the fact that the cost for customizing skins in this game is expensive only compounds this issue even further.
But How Do I Actually Dye My Skins?
Before getting into customization, it is important to know that only certain skins in Lost Ark can be dyed. Dyeable skins include almost any piece of skin or armor you can get from the in-game shop. Armors or skins that cannot be dyed display a “Cannot be dyed” in their description.
Now that we have gotten that out of the way, in order to customize your skins, first you have to find a Skin Modding NPC in any of the major towns present in the game. Upon talking to them, select any piece of armor that you want to dye or customize. For changing the color, you’re going to need 10x Magick Society Reagent, for patterns you’re going to need 10x Pattern Reagent and for customizing the shine of your armor you’re going to need 10x shine reagent.
