Do the sigils of force and accuracy (5% damage and 5% critical chance) affect phantasms? If not, then I’d likely replace it with a ruby orb instead.

Also, If I have the boon might on me and summon a phantasm, will it do more damage than if I summoned it without?

Ok as per my testing in the heart of the mist, sigils of force and accuracy do not affect phantasm damage. Gaining might on the mesmer, howerver, does. So I guess I’ll replace my sigils of energy with sigils of battle and my sigil of force with a ruby orb.

I am in no way an expert in math though, so take this with a grain of salt. :X

Sigils don’t affect illusions, but they get part of your stats when summoned, so stat-boosting sigils are good idea if you’d like your illusions benefit from them.
Like double bloodlusts for double stacking speed.
Stacks persist through entire fractal run too!

My problem with stacking sigils is that as a glass cannon, I get downed rather quickly. I’d much rather stick to might on swap then if I want to gear towards damage.

However, I think I’ll stick to 2 sigils of energy, seeing as I am built strictly as a glass cannon phantasm mesmer.. I kill a lot slower than shatter builds and I’ll probably benefit more from being able to dodge than having my phantasm deal more damage? im still not sure though XD
