Etch signal data into combat sigils for offensive power.

Overview
Signal Etching is the crafting discipline that converts signal data into combat utility items — offensive stat buffs and sigils. Where Synthesis produces defensive tonics, Signal Etching produces offensive amplifiers.
What It Produces
Sigils that temporarily boost offensive combat stats. Each sigil type targets a different stat or provides a combat utility effect. Higher-tier sigils provide stronger bonuses and last longer.
Materials
Sigils consume signal data gathered via Signal Tapping. Higher-tier sigils require higher-tier signal data. Some recipes also require secondary materials like biostock or bars.
Training
XP is awarded per sigil etched. Like other crafting disciplines, work orders run in the background. Train by producing the highest-tier sigils you can craft. Your Signal Tapping level should stay ahead so you always have signal data to work with.
