In the RuneScape game, Goblin Diplomacy is a quest where the player helps goblins resolve a dispute over the colour of their armour. The goblins are on the brink of civil war, debating whether the colour should be red or green. The player intervenes and suggests a different colour, such as orange, blue, or purple. The quest involves finding or creating dyes and dyeing goblin mail to present to the goblins as options for their armour colour. The goblins eventually decide that the original colour, brown, is best. This quest is notable for its lighthearted take on diplomacy and its impact on preventing potential unrest in the Goblin Village.

What You'll Learn
The goblins want orange armour, but you need to find the dye
In the RuneScape quest Goblin Diplomacy, the goblins are on the brink of civil war over the colour of their armour. The player must help Generals Bentnoze and Wartface resolve this dispute. The goblins want their armour to be orange, but the player must find a way to dye it.
To obtain orange dye, the player must first find yellow dye and red dye. Grubfoot mentions that he stole the yellow dye from a witch in Draynor Village, and the player may be able to find it there. The player can obtain red dye by purchasing three redberries from Wydin's Food Store in Port Sarim for 3 coins each, or by picking them west of Varrock's southeast mine.
Alternatively, the player can obtain goblin mail by killing goblins in Goblin Village, who drop red or green goblin mails that can be dyed. However, the player will need one uncoloured goblin mail from a standard goblin. The player can then combine the red and yellow dyes to create orange dye.
Once the player has obtained the orange dye, they can dye one piece of goblin mail orange. The player can then return to Goblin Village and give the orange goblin mail to the generals. However, Grubfoot will try it on and say that he does not like it. The goblins will then ask for blue armour instead.
The player must then dye another piece of goblin mail blue and give it to the generals. Again, Grubfoot will try it on, but he will not like it. The goblins will then request brown armour, which is the original colour. The player can find brown goblin mail in crates in Goblin Village or by killing goblins.

You need to find three goblin mails
To find three goblin mails in RuneScape's Goblin Diplomacy quest, you have a few options. The first is to search for crates in the Goblin Village. These can be found behind the generals' hut, inside the western hut between the small square hut and the generals' hut, and up a ladder near the gate to the goblin village or at the entrance of the camp. These crates will contain goblin mail.
Alternatively, you can obtain goblin mail by killing goblins. The goblins in Goblin Village drop red or green goblin mails, which can be dyed, but you will need one uncoloured one from a standard goblin for the quest.
You can also find brown goblin mail by going up the ladder in the goblin village and searching the crates there.
Once you have obtained three goblin mails, you need to dye one orange and one blue, and leave the last one unaltered. Return to the Goblin Village and give the orange goblin mail to the generals. They will have Grubfoot try it on, but they will not like it and will ask for blue armour instead. Give them the blue goblin mail, but again, it will be rejected. They will then ask for brown armour. Give them the plain brown goblin mail, and the quest will be complete!

You need to find woad leaves, redberries and onions
To complete the Goblin Diplomacy quest in RuneScape, you will need to find woad leaves, redberries, and onions. Here is how you can find them:
Woad Leaves
You can purchase woad leaves from Wyson, the head gardener in Falador Park. When you ask to buy some, he will ask how much you are willing to pay. Offering "about 20 coins" will get you two woad leaves at a generous price.
Redberries
Three redberries can be purchased from Wydin's Food Store in Port Sarim for 3 coins each. Alternatively, you can pick them west of Varrock's southeast mine.
Onions
You can pick two onions from the field just north of Rimmington. Another place to find onions is Lumbridge, in the backyard of Farmer Fred's farm, which is next to the sheep paddock.
With these ingredients, you can make the dyes needed to resolve the dispute among the goblins of Goblin Village.

Aggie the Witch can make the dyes for you
Aggie the Witch, who resides in a house with a cauldron in Draynor Village, can make dyes for you. She is a useful non-player character (NPC) in the game. Aggie sells potions and dyes and is a self-proclaimed pillar of the local community. She is also a family friend of Brian, who asks the player to get her to be a character witness for his friend who is to be jailed. Aggie agrees to do so if the player can find her missing apprentice, Jimmy the Chisel.
Aggie sells primary colours of dye for 5 coins plus ingredients. For example, red dye requires 3 redberries, yellow dye requires 2 onions, and blue dye requires 2 woad leaves. If you want to make purple dye, Aggie can make it for you by mixing blue and red dye. You can also ask her to make orange, green, and brown dyes. If you insult Aggie, she will take 5 or 20 coins from you, depending on how many coins you have in your inventory. If you don't have any coins, she will take a pot of flour instead.
To make dyes for goblin diplomacy, you will need to dye goblin mail orange and blue. Aggie can help you make these dyes. You can find the goblin mail in crates in Goblin Village. Once you have the dyed goblin mail, you can give them to the generals, who will have Grubfoot try them on. They will eventually decide that they prefer the original brown colour.

The goblins will eventually decide they like brown armour best
In the RuneScape quest Goblin Diplomacy, the goblins of Goblin Village are on the brink of civil war over the colour of their armour. Players can resolve this dispute by suggesting a different colour to Generals Bentnoze and Wartface, who agree to consider a sample of orange armour.
To create the orange armour, players must dye one set of goblin mail orange. This can be done by obtaining yellow dye from a witch in Draynor Village (stolen by Grubfoot) and red dye made from 3 redberries and 5 coins. The orange dye is then created by combining the red and yellow dyes. Alternatively, players can take the dye ingredients to Aggie the witch to create orange dye.
Once the orange armour is presented to the generals, they will have Grubfoot try it on. However, they will decide they do not like it and will ask for blue armour instead. Players must then dye another set of goblin mail blue, which can be done by obtaining woad leaves from Wyson the head gardener in Falador Park and combining them with 5 coins to create blue dye. Alternatively, players can take the woad leaves to Aggie to create the dye.
When presented with the blue armour, the goblins will once again be dissatisfied and will request brown armour. Players must then obtain plain brown goblin mail from crates in Goblin Village, which can be found by climbing the ladder near the gate to the village. Finally, upon trying on the brown armour, the goblins will decide that the original colour is best, and the quest will be completed.
