Vargras Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Because until they do, there's zero reason to ever buy any of the sigils other than the one we start with. No player is going to trudge through syndicates and get the sigils before any of the weapon mods or warframe augments. It's just not going to happen. These things need to give some kind of bonus to reputation gained (with that bonus increasing as the sigils themselves increase in price and complexity) so there's some kind of incentive to actually buy them, other than "they look cool".

Vargras Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 The last stream confirmed higher tier sigils willl give more rep Soon, but not too much I feel it should be enough of a boost so that if I spend thousands of syndicate points on a sigil, it's not going to hurt me too much in the long run. I'm not going to be delayed by days upon days from getting a weapon mod or warframe augment because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcl_Blue Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I bought an alternate Cephalon Suda sigil today just because I liked it much better than the standard one. This is the first thing I get from Suda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope so too, hopefully its not a miniscule difference of like only 10 less rep points needed per level for each point though, that would be horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morec0 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I REALLY hope they code it so that once you buy a, say, Teir 3 Red Veil Sigil ALL of your Re Veil Sigils will receive that bonus. Because I agree that the bonus added will need to be something significant to be even worth this alternation, but I do NOT want to to use the Assassin Sigil to get the best bang-for-my-buck while running mission. I really just don't like how it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like unlocked bonuses with higher sigils, but I don't want to see them tied directly to the sigil itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjamander Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Agreed on this point. I like unlocked bonuses with higher sigils, but I don't want to see them tied directly to the sigil itself Maybe the more sigils you unlock for X syndicate will grant more point?

TinFoilMkIV Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Maybe the more sigils you unlock for X syndicate will grant more point? that is the general idea of where I'd like them to go with the sigil bonuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morec0 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Maybe the more sigils you unlock for X syndicate will grant more point? But then each level of unlocked bonuses has to be significantly smaller than the one before it, which leaves either the overall gains from each not being worth it or the final tier giving you SO much extra Rep it's not even funny - and we all know that wont happen. No, I think the best bet is to just allow for the Sigils from each Rep Level to give you bonuses: Regular? First level Lesion/Malestrom? A higher level Malevolent/Covert? A higher level than that Assassin: The highest level and most rep gain bonus And, as I said: these bonuses apply to ALL Sigils of that faction once you have a higher one.

TinFoilMkIV Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 hmm I suppose having the highest tier bonus be the active one would work as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is DE already mention higher tier sigil wont give more, because people <won't use the lower one>. I will admit that I do no approve they decision.

xMilkychocolate Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) I think sigils in general shouldn't cost any standing what so ever seeing at they have a rank requirement anyway..Or at least once you get promoted to a higher level you should be given a new sigil so you can show off your rank in said syndicate. That way there's no disadvantages of wearing a lower rank sigil period. Edited November 12, 2014 by xMilkychocolate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will admit that I do no approve they decision. DE officially stated they are purely cosmetic but considering giving some rep boost. Makes sense to me because things get expensive in the syndicate. Considering the variety of sigils available per level perhaps each one could have a unique buff to it? Nothing crazy, just a little extra punch. Allowing the tenno to chose based on style of gameplay. And of course, who would wear a lower class sigil if they've earned a higher rank? duh.

BrazilianJoe Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I've been advocating a rep boost for owning them instead of wearing them. The more you own, the higher the rep boot. So you can wear the one you like most, and it still makes sense to collect them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really just don't like how it looks. I offered a way to avoid this issue while making sigils worthwhile here: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/338044-how-to-fix-the-sigil-standing-issue-and-keep-everyone-happy/ Essentially every sigil you buy adds to a multiplier that works with every sigil. So the more sigils you buy, the more of a multiplier you get. Sadly DE didn't seem to come to the same idea I did on how to resolve this issue. I've been advocating a rep boost for owning them instead of wearing them. The more you own, the higher the rep boot. So you can wear the one you like most, and it still makes sense to collect them all. That's what I've been saying as well.
