Acquisition

Signet of Capture:

• Prophecies
  • Calamitous (Watchtower Coast during the War in Kryta)
• Nightfall
  • Lieutenant Kayin (Arkjok Ward)

Notes

• The armor penetration also applies to damage done by dropping the ashes.
• When used with Spirit Rift, the armor penetration will only be gained if you are holding the Ashes when the damage triggers; the spell does not check whether or not you were holding them when the spell was cast.

Anomaly! When dropped, the dropped item is listed as a 'Destructive Was Glaive', rather than 'Ashes of Destructive Glaive'.

Trivia

• Lady Glaive was a Corsair leader in Elonian history. She was indeed destructive, bringing around the Second Great Corsair War.
