Q. How does the 'Sigil System' work and how will it replace Wards already applied to earned gear?
A. We've actually gone back to calling them Wards (I know, I know. I swear we're really not trying to confuse you). In short, Wards will now be unlocked via the Tome of Knowledge once you equip an item that has that specific Ward on it. After you unlock a Ward (the unlock is permanent), you no longer have to wear that piece of armor in order to gain the Ward's benefits. This means that Ward bonuses will no longer be tied to a specific piece of armor, so players will be free to wear whatever they want!
In addition, any player who has already unlocked a Ward by earning the corresponding piece of armor will automatically be credited with the appropriate Ward, even if they no longer physically have that piece in their inventory. In addition, players will be able to earn additional Wards by completing specific RvR or PvE tasks, instead of getting lucky from a loot drop.
