I have a couple of questions about sigil of absorption. It removes a boon on interrupt and i know the order of boon removal.

My questions are say my target only has one boon and its 5 stacks of might with 10 sec duration.

1. Do i steal the full 5 stacks for 10 sec?
2. Do i steal just 1 stack for a preset number of seconds?
3. Does my personal boon duration have any impact on the duration of the boon i steal?
4. Is it something completely different than above?

Thanks for any replies.

this sigil used to have no target limit, or internal cool down. So if you interrupted 10 people with a ring of warding, you would steal 10 boons.

It was nerfed a few months ago, to where you can only steal 1 boon every 3 seconds.

from what i could tell from the guild arena tests we did, it was the full stack of X boon, for however long duration they had left.

The 1 steal every 3 sec is just for pvp. Thanks for the answer about guild hall tests

I’m thinking more about synergy between Spellbreaker, Hammer (and/or) Mace/Shield, Dispelling Force, Loss Aversion, Attacker’s Insight and Enchantment Collapse with this Sigil too.

1. Yes, boon is boon, it disregard the number of stacks.
3. No, you steal for what it is without any addition on top of it.
