If the Clan Symbol system weren’t implemented the way it is, this one might like it.

Each Religion, at highest rank, could give a symbol.
Each learnable faction banner could teach a symbol.
As you mentioned, slaying a major boss or finishing a major Journey Path could award a symbol

DLCs could have their cultural symbol added to the Bazaar.
Bazaar sets can and do have symbols, but they often seem random.

Also, rather than just flags, why don’t we have a body paint and wall/floor paint for the Clan Symbol?

As for putting down a PvP banner, that requires a stand up fight, and even if this one weren’t an opportunistic solo raider, there aren’t many foes left to fight. Battle Standards require battles and battles require willful combatants…

But even then, even if the Clan Symbol system itself were better, this one still wouldn’t consider a flag or two to be equivalent in value to the Stormglass cathedral or even base Aesir sets.
