proposal 2
Sigil of Pacification
50% Chance on Hit: Remove a boon. Prioritizes removing Might over other boons. (Cooldown: 10 Seconds)

Notes:
1. Prioritizes removing Might over other boons.
2. Removes whole stacks of the might boon.

there we go, strap on this sigil and your opponents will no longer be able to stack might boon for more than 5 seconds.

do discuss the % and the cooldown.

Umm. I think it should be like this instead:

Sigil of Pacification
50% Chance on Hit: Remove Stability
(Cooldown: 5 Seconds. 0 Seconds if removing warrior stability)

There we go, strap on this sigil and your opposing warriors no longer have perma stab.

Does it remove all might stacks or just 1?

If it’s all might stacks this sigil would be extremely OP against any build that specs for stacking might.

If it’s 1 might stack I wouldn’t even think about using it since there’re better alternatives.

I’m assuming it removes the full stack. Removing one, even at five seconds wouldn’t be that useful.

This is pretty much what we been asking for. Both cele engi and ele takes huge hits with this.

@ Ekelon.7041
you can create a new topic for that. and a new name as well.
and warriors have a lot of access to stability, but not perma stability.

necromancers can have at least 3 seconds of stability with 3 seconds down time if they trait for it and flash death shroud whenever they can.

@ Blackhat.4016
remove whole stacks.

are builds stacking 25 mights easily by themselves not OP themselves?

this sigil of pacification will do nothing against non might stacking builds.

@ Harbinger.8637
hmmm what do you think about the % and cooldown?

aye that gif, what movie is it from?
and what emotion is it intended to express?

Against non might stacking builds the sigil is useless while it’s too strong against might stacking builds.

Think about it this way:

By only using this sigil you completely counter any + boon duration (for might) and + might duration (since there is no point in having might stacks > 5 sec). You also counter any long duration might stacks like sigil of battle or fire field combos. Effects like +5% damage while under the effects of might would also take a huge hit.

All that for only 1 sigil slot.

I like the idea of sigils removing specific boons but they need a much longer CD. Otherwise they completely destroy certain builds / make other builds extremely OP (just imagine a CC-heavy warrior who can remove your stab every 5 secs on hit).

Make it remove boon with priority on stability, migth, other boons

@ Blackhat.4016
aye, it is intended to be a hard counter for might stacking builds.

if the cooldown is too short, what cooldown would be reasonable?

anyway i added a second version to make it more versatile and perhaps useful against non might stacking professions as well. cooldown is 10 seconds instead of 5 seconds.

@ Lupanic.6502
that would be a sigil of instability then, a new topic.
hmmm priority boon removal. okay i added an alternative.

Yeah put dat on decap engis please…we definately need more cancer engis in pvp

but what do you think about confirmed might removal?

I’d honestly just buff the Sigil of Nullification to 60% on hit (rather than on crit), and have it prioritize certain buffs (i.e., something like might > 5 stacks, stab > 5 secs, protection > 5 sec, fury > 5 sec) with the same 9 sec cooldown.

If it makes eles or engis want to run that over Battle/Int/Doom then it’s already done its job somewhat

This.

Just buff Sigil of Nullification to 50% on hit to remove a boon. Make it prioritize Might > Stab, and we have a balance one.

Nerfing might stacking is good, but a weapon sigil isn’t probably the best way to do it…capping max stacks to 15 or just dropping down duration would be much better

This sigil prioritizes might already. Tested it 2 months ago.

And I think its fine.

you’ve made a good suggestion………

wtf

@Demon it doesnt. It pritoritizes the boon which was applied most recently, which alot of times is might (1 new stack counts as new). And I agree we don’t need new sigils like the ones op is suggesting, this one is enough for boons, if anet wants to they can buff it though.

Mhm….Might is usually last applied as it is constantly re-stacking itself. There is no technical prioritization; besides last applied. Just like your condi-cleanse, last applied is first off.

So I think the consensus is that sigil of nullification could be reworked to prioritise full stacks of might (an order would be nice) although stability/protection could be low priority.

This would help zerker classes without boon hate vs might stacking bunkers which have, lets face it, been meta since launch.

Also on a deeper level it makes classes that don’t swap to thier weapons as they go off cooldown (due to one being ranged, one melee) much, much more viable in a might stacking meta.
