Survivor insignias - Guild Wars Forums

A survivor insignia gives +health. My question is, does 1 survivor insignia grant +30 health or do I put an insignia on my chest for +15, put 1 on my legs for +10 and each other piece of armor I'll get +5?

+15 health on chest, +10 on legs and +5 on other pieces.

i like it picuso

short, sweet and factual. this difference in health begs the question, can spells/attacks hit different parts of the body and cause different amounts of damage? rather than treating the body as one object and dealing the same damage regardless...

Each attack randomly hits one of the various body locations. The probablity of hitting each location is generally believed to be proportional to the relative armor costs for the same level of armor. In which case, the probablities would be:

* Chest - 3/8
* Legs - 2/8
* Head - 1/8
* Hands - 1/8
* Feet - 1/8

lool, still learning my way round wiki, thanks

i think its silly that you have to type in the exact title to bring up a page, why can't it be like google and say 'do you mean...' if you spell something wrong :S

as that link shows, damage is not global, you have a certain chance of hitting a certain piece, the chest being the one with the most chance. same goes for insignias, they arent global and only work for that certain piece.

It's even worse than that. If you type in say "casper the ghost" it will say it can't find it, but tell you there's a close match in "Casper the Ghost" (with the capital letters.) It takes a bit of getting used to.
