Acquisition

Signet of Capture:

Notes

  • For the secondary profession, this will also allow the unavailable primary attribute to be maxed out for spells associated with that attribute (e.g., Divine Favor).
  • Be careful when designing builds that focus on the usage of this skill. If such builds include high attributes to Illusion Magic, while using skills that would otherwise have little or no attributes linked to them, then skills such as Diversion, Ignorance and Icy Prism could render the entire build ineffective.
  • Useful with spell acquiring skills such as Arcane Mimicry, Arcane Larceny, Arcane Thievery, Revealed Hex, Revealed Enchantment, Inspired Hex, Inspired Enchantment and the Asuran Skill Smooth Criminal.
  • While Signet of Illusions is active and a percentage-based +1 attribute effect triggers (such as those from Staff Wrappings of Mastery, or "Master of My Domain" Inscriptions), the +1 will not affect spells of any attribute, including Illusion Magic.
  • Unlike most skills that come into effect the next time something happens, this does not time out if it doesn't take effect within some time limit. Once activated, it will remain in effect until you next cast a spell, however long that takes.
Bug Bug! Signet of Illusions does not work properly for some multi-variable spells.
  • This appears to happen with spells whose effects are delivered separately. Examples: Glowstone, Water Magic Hexes that both deal damage and slow. Item Spells seem to work properly.
  • Although they are not technically linked to attributes, Signet of Illusions will work with spells linked to the Sunspear rank and Allegiance rank title tracks.

Trivia

  • Signet of Illusions was an old skill in the prophecies betas [1].
