The **Glyph System** is a skill-enhancing system added in the PWI Neverfall expansion and is available for players that have reached their Chaotic Soul Cultivation or higher. Players can combine their Sage and Demon skills and then equip Glyphs to further enhance the power or effect of their skills.

## Introduction

Players can access their Glyphs by pressing the `R` key in-game and bringing up the skills window. On the right, there are two tabs, one of which opens the Glyph menu. On the left of the Glyph menu, players can see the list of skills that can use Glyphs. Hovering over the Glyph Effect gems will display the full skill description of each Glyph effect. On the right, players can see the Glyph Slots. Once unlocked, players can drag and drop their desired Glyphs and skills into the slots. Beneath the Glyph slots, there is a Glyph Bag where players can store their Glyphs.

A player can equip up to three Glyphs at any given time if they have completed their Chaotic Soul Cultivation and up to six Glyphs if they have completed their Celestial Saint Cultivation. Skills and Glyphs can be changed any time so long as the player is not in combat mode.

## Glyph Slots

*Main article: Glyph Slots*
Players can unlock their first Glyph slot once they gain access to the Western Steppes by completing the quest given by the Glyph Master of Mercy, an NPC located outside the City Hall of Neverfall.

Subsequent Glyph slots can be unlocked by doing quests received from the rest of the Glyph Master NPCs, located outside the City Hall of Neverfall. The list of the NPCs is the following:

* Glyph Master of Honor for the second Glyph slot quest
* Glyph Master of Courage for the third Glyph slot quest
* Glyph Master of Modesty for the fourth Glyph slot quest
* Glyph Master of Loyalty for the fifth Glyph slot quest
* Glyph Master of Sincerity for the sixth Glyph slot quest

Once a quest has been completed, the player will receive an item that they can right-click to use, and the Glyph slot will be unlocked. Players can also buy Glyph slot items from the NPCs by paying 10,000,000 Silver Coins, but it is recommended to do the quests so the slots can be unlocked for free.

## Acquiring Glyphs

There are five types of Glyphs and each type offers a different skill effect:

* Sanguine Glyph
* Ethereal Glyph
* Verdant Glyph
* Golden Glyph
* Argent Glyph

There are multiple ways of acquiring Glyphs including the following:

* Dungeon farming

Players can farm Glyphs from the bosses in Dawnlight Halls and by completing the Dawnlight Halls daily quest "Dawnlight Justice" which is automatically received when they enter the dungeon. The bosses drop tradeable level 1 Glyphs and the last boss has a chance to drop tradeable level 4 Glyphs. The Dawnlight Halls daily quest rewards players with level 2 Glyph packs and Neverfall Squire's Badges as well.

Players can also exchange 6 Dawnlight Feathers at Archmage Conrad inside Dawnlight Halls for a weekly quest to kill Nightmare Wyrm and Natya Veda. Completing this quest will award players with ten level 2 Glyph Packs, ten Neverfall Squire's Badges, and four Nebula Dust Orbs.

Bosses in Icebound Underworld also have a chance of dropping tradeable Glyphs such as level 4 Glyphs, but the drop rate is not known.

In addition, completing Uncharted Paradise in Deicide Mode or Dawnlight Halls in Deicide or Judgment Mode has a 70% chance of spawning a Mysterious Merchant. The merchant may offer LV1 or LV4 Glyph Packs in exchange for gold or Silver Coins.

* Changeling Commander Haspon

Players can take the Soul Purification weekly quest from General Summer in Nordeville to kill Changeling Commander Haspon. He is located at the Path of Sorrow nearby (453, 476). When he is killed, players in the squad that dealt the most damage will receive a 72 hour timed Corrupted Soul, which can be combined with a Yin Yang Twin Stone obtained from the Darkness of Magnier daily quest to make a Pure Soul. Completing the weekly quest will reward players with six level 2 Glyph packs along with other prizes.

* Spiritual Cultivation

Upon completing the Chaotic Soul questline, players will receive two level 2 Glyph Packs and one level 3 Glyph Pack. Upon completing the Celestial Saint questline, players will receive a level 5 Glyph Pack and two level 3 Glyph Packs.

* Lucky Coins

Players can exchange 1 Lucky Coin for a level 1 Glyph of their choice at Assistant Wang Tsai, usually located next to the banker in most major cities.

* PvP Events

Season rewards for PvP events may include Glyph packs.

* Arc Promotions

Sometimes there will be special, time-limited events or promotions for those who charge Zen or spend Gold. These promotions may include Glyph packs as rewards.

Level 1, 4, and 7 Glyphs are all tradeable and can be sold to or bought from other players.

## Leveling Glyphs

Glyphs can be leveled in order to increase the power of the effects they offer to skills. There are four tiers of Glyphs and all Glyphs under the same tier offer the exact same skill effects regardless of the Glyph's level.

* Tier 1: Glyphs level 1 - 4
* Tier 2: Glyphs level 5 - 7
* Tier 3: Glyphs level 8 - 9
* Tier 4: Glyphs level 10

In order to level Glyphs, players have to combine them. To do this, open the Glyph menu by pressing the `R` key in-game and then select the Glyph Growth tab at the top. Place the Glyph you wish to level at the center. The Glyphs placed around the central Glyph will be used to feed the central Glyph.

If the combination succeeds, the central Glyph's level will increase by one. If the combination fails, the central Glyph's level will decrease by one. At the top left of the Glyph Growth window, the success rate will be displayed. Players cannot feed higher level Glyphs to lower level Glyphs.

### Recommended Combining Path

* **Glyph Lv.1:** Glyph Lv.1 = 1
* **Glyph Lv.2:** Glyph Lv.1 + 2x Glyph Lv.1 = 3
* **Glyph Lv.3:** Glyph Lv.2 + 2x Glyph Lv.2 = 9
* **Glyph Lv.4:** Glyph Lv.3 + 5x Glyph Lv.2 + (Glyph Lv.3 - Glyph Lv.2) = 45 (after average of 2 attempts)
* **Glyph Lv.5:** Glyph Lv.4 + 3x Glyph Lv.4 = 180
* **Glyph Lv.6:** Glyph Lv.5 + 3x Glyph Lv.5 = 720
* **Glyph Lv.7:** Glyph Lv.6 + 5x Glyph Lv.5 + (Glyph Lv.6 - Glyph Lv.5)\*1.5 = 3780 (after average of 2.5 attempts)
* **Glyph Lv.8:** Glyph Lv.7 + 5x Glyph Lv.6 + (Glyph Lv.7 - Glyph Lv.6)\*1.5 = 17375 (after average of 2.5 attempts)
* **Glyph Lv.9:** Glyph Lv.8 + 5x Glyph Lv.7 + (Glyph Lv.8 - Glyph Lv.7)\*1.5 = 85005 (after average of 2.5 attempts)
* **Glyph Lv.10:** Glyph Lv.9 + 5x Glyph Lv.8 + (Glyph Lv.9 - Glyph Lv.8)\*1.5 = 403582.5 (after average of 2.5 attempts)

## Glyph Stats

Apart from skill effects, Glyphs also offer stats for your character. The higher level the Glyph is, the better stats it offers. You can see the stats by hovering over the Glyph icons. The stats are class-dependent so the values may vary, but depending on the Glyph's level characters can get more HP, physical defense, magic defense, physical attack, magic attack, spirit, attack levels, and defense levels.

## Glyph Bonus

When a player has all six Glyph slots unlocked, they can activate a Glyph bonus by using Glyph on specific skills. When the majority of the skills with Glyphs belong to one property, then the character will receive that particular property. If the skills of different properties are equal in number then no bonus will be activated.

* Players with Martial Prowess deal 15% more damage to players with Dragon's Might.
* Players with Dragon's Might deal 15% more damage to players with Tiger's Rage.
* Players with Tiger's Rage deal 15% more damage to players with Martial Prowess.
* Players with no Glyph Bonus activated take 5% more damage from players with a Glyph Bonus.
* Players with the same property have no damage modifier against each other.

## Glyph Skills

Players will have to upgrade their skills before they can use Glyphs on them. Currently, each class can upgrade twelve skills. The first six are unlocked with the Chaotic Soul Cultivation and the last six are unlocked with the Celestial Saint Cultivation.
