Im kinda struggle with what this insignia actually does. What it says is:

1. Reduce hexes duration by 20% (that's clear to me)
2. Reduce armor by 20 (that's clear as well)
3. (Reduce) damage dealt by you by 5% (wtf!?)

Aren't that way too much penalties apply to just only 1 buff?

Thoughts?

Because reduce hex is very good?

Buy a lieutenants helmet from HoD and have the + but not the -

Since HoD doesn't craft AL 80 armour, I can understand where the armour penalty comes from. Anet obviously must feel that even then the lieutenant's helm was overpowered if they did this to the insignia. On the bright side, this means you can get the low armour piece off of your head where it can do the most damage.

Last I checked the Lieutenants Helm from Henge of Denravi had been updated to show the same stats has the Insignia.

Hmm, time to check my helmet, then rant about how I can't replace insignia on my 15k glads boots ()
