You had a 1 in 65,536 chance of landing on the Sigil Drop table. The Sigil drop table took a random number between 0-7 (8 numbers as 0 counts as a number) and decided what to give you.
In order of the most common to rarest;
Spectral
Arcane
Elysian
Divine
Don't really understand this Reach ^
I'll try to be really thorough in explaining how this drop table works
When the Corporeal Beast dies, it runs a special command that calls it drops table code to run. On that drop table, it picks a random number (imagine rolling two dice) and then looks for a drop that's assigned that number and drops it, such as rolling an 11 (which might be 2000 cannonballs).
On the Corp Drop table, as value 0 (imagine dice could roll a 0), is another drop table that's specific to dropping the sigils. We store the sigils in another drop table to save readable space on the main drop table. If you roll a 0 on the main drop table, which is a 1 in 65,536 chance, you land on the sigil drop table meaning you're 100% guaranteed a sigil as a drop.
The sigil drop table works in the same way as the main drop table works by picking another random number and dropping the item that shares the value as the random number it rolled. -----
