Glyphs? Why, what's that you say?
Basically, glyphs are items that enhance your spells. They come in many varieties. From simply making your fireball crit more often to causing your evocation to heal you, glyphs come in many varieties.
Glyphs are created by using the Inscription proffession. To use them, right click the desired glyph, and then left click on an open slot in your glyph panel in your talents page.
Glyph slots available depending on your level: The higher your level, the more slots you get. Your first slots will be unlocked at level 15. At the highest level, you get 3 major slots, and 3 minor ones. Major glyphs cause more significant changes to your spells, while minor ones cause things like lower mana cost, or removing a reagent.
Feel free to list your favorite glyphs, or which ones you think are best!
