You can think of Glyphs as kinda like Merit Points in XI. At certain levels (starting around 20) you will get Glyph Points. Then, you can buy Glyphs at the Glyphmasters (in Velika and major cities). Each Glyph costs a certain amount of points to use (think BLU points in XI). Glyphs alter/beef up your spells/attacks, by reducing cast times, increasing damage, MP consumption, etc. Each skill that you have has Glyphs associated with it. You can buy as many as you like, but can only turn on as many as you have points for. You can access the Glyph menu by going to your Skills Menu and clicking on the Glyph tab. Hope this helps!

Edit: Beat

Thx i'll try this one day lol

Also since they cost gold to buy and remove Is it actually worth it to enhance with glyphs before some lv? or it<s not that pricey

**Rulke** · 2012-05-09 10:02

^ When you reach level 20 you should start using glyphs. You won't have a bunch of points to use right away and I recommend buying those you want as you go along and can use them. Money shouldn't be an issue.

Some glyphs wind up defining a class, so yeah, you should always glyph the shit out of yourself when you can. Even if you pay the measly 3 gold to undo your glyphs, you don't lose the actual glyphs themselves, it just undoes which ones you've activated. Money is pretty easy to come by anyway, so you might as well experiment after researching which glyphs are considered "core" for your class.

I'll give you a protip: most "essential" glyphs are defined as either cooldown-resetting (think Slayer's overhand strike glyph with 70% chance to completely reset the cooldown), or lower the cooldown or charge time of a follow-up skill.

**Senji** · 2012-05-09 10:11

If you actually read them and pick outline some good ones, shouldn't really have to change them up as your leveling. Just activate more as you get the points.

Hunter crystals +% dmg to Normal mobs drop off what... i need to farm a bunch. Or is it just random?>

**Kachiko** · 2012-05-09 12:09

Highest rates are off of BAMs, but you can find them off of any mob type. The good crystals are in such high demand, and low supply, because they removed the mischief box, that transformed crystals, from one type, to another. GL.

How do you improve glyphs? I was looking at mine yesterday and some of them seemed to list a "next" version of the glyph. They tended to cost less points or do more of the effect.

They're suppose to come from a training ground instance if i remember right but its not ingame yet and also a 60 instance for NA Tera.

I have a little question: Is it better to overcharge on Archer like it is on Berserker, or is it best to use the ability as soon as it hits the last charge?

**Maaglin** · 2012-05-09 16:05

Slayer OHS glyph is 50% to reset cooldown, not 70%.

Rested EXP, what's the cap on that? (or how many days do I need to be off the game for to achieve cap)

So far I'm logging in every 23~ hours, I get a somewhat decent chunk of rested EXP. But I don't want it to reach cap so I've been logging on each day.

**Aidin** · 2012-05-09 18:52

Has anyone completed the One Father's Legacy quest in the Khanovar Front area? Missing chapter 10 and can't seem to find any quests I've missed. Level 59 quest

Edit: Got it

The cap on rested EXP is 50% of the exp you need total for to go up a level (I think?). How long it takes to accumulate might change by level, but I haven't really been logged off long enough to know for sure. >.>

**Lucavi** · 2012-05-09 22:45

I've gotten 100% for rested XP.

Edit: Have it on my Zerker right now. Haven't touched her in days, really.

Double Edit: 100% equals roughly a third of my XP bar at 45, so yeah, 100% does not translate (all the time) to 100%.

**Gilgameshx** · 2012-05-09 22:47

Do the same crystals stack? Like having 2 -4% damage from bosses... would it equal 8% reduction?

**MisterBob** · 2012-05-10 01:24

Yes, unless the crystal says otherwise

The boss you get is random. You'll either get the one to the north or to the south.
