This article is about armor upgrade components. For the Factions quests, see insignia quest.
Insignias are a prefix armor upgrade component that can boost health, increase armor rating, reduce damage, or provide some other profession-specific benefit. They do not drop directly from foes or chests; they must be extracted from armor salvage items. They can be purchased from any Rune Trader at market prices.
Like runes, there are profession-specific and profession-independent insignias. The former can only be applied to armor pieces of that profession, while the latter can be applied to armor of any profession.
All armor pieces can be upgraded with insignias, except for certain collector armor. Applying a new insignia will overwrite the existing ones, but the original can be salvaged first.

Notes
- Like runes, insignia prices at Rune Traders vary according to market conditions.
- Unidentified insignias and those bought at the trader have a merchant value of 25
. - When salvaged from unidentified salvage armor, they will be unidentified.
- When salvaged from armor (including Hero armor), the insignia can still be identified, which will slightly improve its merchant value, to 26...50.
- Unidentified insignias and those bought at the trader have a merchant value of 25
- Insignias only affect the armor rating of the piece to which it is applied.
- Profession-specific insignias drop only in campaigns to which the profession is native. For example, Assassin and Ritualist insignia are found in Factions and Guild Wars Eye of the North, but not in Nightfall or Prophecies.
Trivia
- Insignias were introduced with Guild Wars Nightfall.
- Insignias were available only for PvP and Guild Wars Nightfall until the May 24, 2007 update, which replaced the old armor bonus system and made salvageable insignias available for every campaign.
