Obsidian Armor and Insignias - Guild Wars Forums

I've heard that if you purchase the FoW armor without a bonus, you can add an insignia to it. Is this true? I don't want to waste ectos and shards finding out =(

Yeh you can add the insignias after, do you really think anet would put it there otherwise :P

Yes, its true. However, you cannot use an inscription to change the stats on obsidian armor that was purchased with built-in mods. The good part about this is it gives eles a real reason to buy FoW armor.. If you don't have NF, obsidian with inscriptions is the only way an ele can get +energy armor. So for us nukers, its not JUST a showpiece, it IS more practical

No, I don't really ever run out... but it's nice to break 100 base energy

. And other than soloing, I don't do anything outside of a good group of friends/guildies so my monks do their job - no need for more hp/armor then - so why not have a little more energy to do my job better

Really hope they allow you to change existing FoW armours with insignias, even just the once. As my ele's is Aeromancer -.- before the releaser of factions.. Would be nice to change it to While enchanted.
