Seals

About

Seals are Items that are applied to customise Your Character, Sworn Swords, and Items. Seals are used to boost Stats and provide bonus effects. They can be acquired in several ways, and some seals are used in the crafting of other seals.

Types of Seals

There are several types of Seals, in various rarities. A basic seal might provide a bonus to Stats and/or Actions. Seals are loosely grouped by theme or the bonuses they provide. Below are some examples, though this is not a comprehensive list.

Thematic Groups

Seals inspired by various themes within the game and Lore.

Group	Description
Fealty Seals	Seals representing the sigils of the Great Houses of Westeros.
Seals of Office	Seals representing certain titles of office, such as Seal of the Hand of the King.
Character Seals	Personal insignias of various well known characters, such as Robert Baratheon's Insignia.
Geographic Seals	Seals representing specific locations, such as the Seal of the Bloody Gate.

Bonus Groups

Bonuses may apply to a Stat (Battle, Trade, Intrigue), an Action (Fight, Barter, Spy, etc), an Activity (Quests, Adventures, Alliance Vs Alliance, etc); or any combination of these.

Group	Description
Speed Seals	These seals reduce timers.
Deadly Seals	These seals provide a chance of inflicting additional wounds to defending Sworn Swords.
Wound Prevention	These seals provide a chance to avoid being wounded when losing a defense.
Seals of Healing	These seals increase the speed at which Sworn Swords recover from wounds.
Wealthy Seals	These seals increase the amount of gained.
Chancy Seals	These seals provide a chance to gain a bonus to an Action (see below).

Chancy Seals

These seals provide a percentage chance of a bonus. These seals stack with others of the same type, up to a maximum of a 100% chance. Only the chance percentage stacks, not the bonus provided on activation. Seals do not need to be on the same item/Sworn Sword in order to stack, and the benefit of any seal beyond 100% chance is disregarded in combat calculations. In order the stack, the chance bonus must be identical.

e.g. If the first seal is a Peerless Pirate's Seal (25% chance of adding +12% to Harass):

Second Seal	Stack?	Total Bonus	Notes
Peerless Pirate's Seal	Yes	50% chance of +12% to Harass	These seals are identical, the two 25% chances stack to create a single, larger bonus.
Rare Pirate's Seal	No	25% chance of +12% to Harass	The Harass bonus on the rare Seal is smaller; they do not stack, but provide two separate chance rolls.
Rare Pirate's Seal	No	25% chance of +8% to Harass
Peerless Herbalist's Seal	No	25% chance of +12% to Harass	The Aid bonus does not stack with the Harass bonus.
Peerless Herbalist's Seal	No	25% chance of +12% to Aid	The Aid bonus does not stack with the Harass bonus.
Boneway Scorpion	Yes	75% chance of +12% to Harass	The Harass bonus is the same as the one from the seal, the 50% chance from the Item stacks with the 25% chance from the Seal.

Obtaining Seals

Seals are gained via the following means:

Applying Seals

Seals are placed on Seal Slots. Slots may already be open, or they may be locked. Unlocking a Slot costs gold, and makes the Item or Sworn Sword Permanent. The cost of seal slots is not cumulative, nor do they need to purchased in order.

Your Character starts with the first slot already open.
Sworn Swords purchased for Silver have no slots open.
Sworn Swords purchased for Gold have one more more slots open.
Items vary by rarity (click for more information).

Your Character	Sworn Swords	Items
Open	3	3
7	5	5
15	6	6
23	7	7
31	8	8
39	9	9

Retrieving Seals

Once placed, a seal can be destroyed or retrieved. Destroying a seal is free, and makes the Slot available for a new seal.

Alternatively, a seal can be retrieved. Retrieval both makes the Slot available and allows the seal to be used again. The cost of retrieval increases with the rarity of the seal, and the seal returns to your inventory on retrieval.
