Guild Wars 2

The wiki says that “The symbol for the College of Statics resembles an X, or an hour glass. The design is meant to represent a strong foundation, and using that strong base to expand and refine technology.”

There is nothing on the pages for the College of Dynamics (triangle/pyramid) or the College of Synergetics (rhombus inside a rhombus) to explain what their symbols represent.

Does anyone know what they mean?

Don’t take my word as exact fact or anything, but maybe the triangle/pyramid for the College of Dynamics is meant to be the Greek letter Delta, which is often used to represent change. The word dynamics also implies constant change.

My personal interpretation for Statics is that the “hourglass” is a symbol for time and tradition. And Statics krewes in general like to use methods that are already proven or they like to preserve old knowledge for future generations.

For Synergetics, the way I see their symbol, it’s like multiple pieces forming into one massive shape which would hold true to their vision in that in the eyes of the Eternal Alchemy, everything is connected to form a grand design.
