Hey all,

yes, we are indeed removing the Sigil Slot.

One of the main reasons for doing this is the fact that the sigil slot is often confusing to new and/or old players (pre sigil slot).

Additionally, 9 out of 10 sigil slots directly affect PvM and as you can see in the comments many players aren't using them and/or weren't really aware of sigils in the first place. As a result we've decided to make them into abilities, the initial cost will be higher but once unlocked/bought you will keep them permanently. There will no longer be a cost per use.

We are trying to refund as much as possible, which would otherwise be lost as a result of the Sigil Removal.

last but not least, we've seen various people ask us to remove the GCD (global cool down) from the new 'sigil abilities' and we're looking into doing this.
