Paragon Glyphs
Last Updated:October 26, 2024|Changelog
Glyphs are a powerful addition to further enhance your Paragon Boards after reaching Level 60. They are rune-like items that are placed in special Socket Nodes on each board. Learn everything you need to know about them below!
Acquiring Glyphs
Glyphs are easy to get but may take a while to obtain before having the full set you require for your build. Once you hit level 60, any activity has a chance of dropping a Glyph for you. The best way, as you could guess, is to run the Pit or Nightmare Dungeons. You can open your Paragon Board and check for the ones you have obtained and which have not yet been found. They can look very similar to regular items when dropped, so be on the lookout to not miss any.
Rarities
There are three rarity types for Glyphs - Magic, Rare, and Legendary.
Magic Paragon Glyphs
- One bonus is applied to your character.
- They start with a Radius of 2. When they are put into a Socket Node, they are affected or affect Paragon Nodes within 2 Nodes.
- At Level 4, their Radius increases to 3.
For example, Subdue grants +0.8% increased damage per 5 Intelligence allocated in range. You should put this into a Glyph Socket that has as much Intelligence in range as possible.
Rare and Legendary Paragon Glyphs
- One bonus is applied to your character.
- An additional bonus is unlocked by allocating enough Paragon Nodes in its Radius to reach the specified Attribute.
- They start with a Radius of 3. When they are put into a Socket Node, they are affected or affect Paragon Nodes within 3 Nodes.
- At Level 15, their effect Radius increases to 4.
For example, Fulminate grants +3.0% increased Lightning damage for every 5 Dexterity allocated in range. The additional bonus requires you to reach 25 Dexterity on allocated Paragon Nodes in its Radius. You should put this into a Glyph Socket that has as much Dexterity in range as possible.
Once the Glyph reaches level 46, it becomes Legendary and gains an additional radius increase to its maximum of 5. This Legendary increase is extremely powerful as it gives you access to a new multiplier at the bottom of the Glyph.
Using Glyphs
To use a Glyph, you have to place it into a Socket Node on your Paragon Board. Each board has one of these Nodes. Every Glyph has a "base bonus" that applies to your character when socketed.
- Some scale with a specific Attribute on Paragon Nodes allocated in its radius. Make sure to utilize your Paragon Boards to maximize this effect.
Example: If your Glyph scales with Dexterity, make sure to put it in the Socket Node with the highest Dexterity you can find. - Or increases the effectiveness of Paragon Nodes (Magic and Rare Nodes) within its Radius. Make sure to utilize these Glyphs in Socket Nodes that are surrounded by nodes that benefit your build!
Rare and Legendary Glyphs have an additional bonus that is unlocked when the specified Attribute from allocated Paragon Nodes is reached. Make sure to unlock these secondary bonuses!
The example image shows a block of green text at the top. These are the total bonuses that the Glyph adds to your character.

Upgrading Paragon Glyphs
Players who manage to clear the entire pit and slay the boss before the timer runs out can upgrade their glyphs. If you successfully clear the pit, you gain:
- 3 attempts at upgrading your glyphs
- 1 extra if you do not die during the run.
Depending on the difficulty of the pit, the odds of successfully upgrading your glyph increase based on the level difference between the glyph and the pit run. If the difference between your glyph and the Pit level is greater than 20, your glyph gets an additional upgrade.
The max level of glyphs has been increased from level 21 to level 100. Once you reach Glyph level 45, it costs 10k gem fragments to upgrade from Rare to Legendary quality, giving it an additional radius size and a new affix.
Summary
- Increase a Glyph's Radius by leveling it up to the listed requirement.
- They are laced in Socket Nodes on the Paragon Board, and interact with allocated nodes in their radius.
- Allocate as many Paragon Nodes with their specified Attribute in their Radius.
- Maximize your Glyph's power by placing it in a Glyph Socket that benefits it the most!
- They exist in Magic, Rare, and Legendary rarity.
