How to Learn Glyph's Inscription in World of Warcraft

Inscription is a profession that was introduced in Patch 3.0.2 for "World of Warcraft." It allows players to create "glyphs," a spell or ability enhancement that they can buy and sell until they are soulbound. Glyphs come in three categories -- major, minor and prime. Prime glyphs are used in combat to increase healing or damage. Major and minor glyphs change the features of various spells. While major glyphs affect direct features of a spell, the minor glyphs are used for convenient spell purposes such as reduced cool down time or increased effectiveness. Milling, a gathering skill, is included in the Inscription apprentice training. This skill creates base materials from herbs and is similar to disenchanting and prospecting.

Instructions

- 1
  Attain a minimum Level 5 character. Locate an Inscription trainer; Inscription trainers are found in every race's capital as well as in Northend and the Hellfire Peninsula. Pay the trainer 10 coppers to begin training as an apprentice.
- 2
  Bring up your character to Level 10. Locate the Inscription trainer and train to the expert level. Expert level begins at skill Level 20; raise your Inscription skill to 25 through simple tasks such as milling. Glyph slots, used for holding learned glyphs, open at a skill level of 25. Scribes are given one prime slot, one major slot and one minor slot to begin.
- 3
  Purchase three common inks and one parchment from a merchant; each glyph requires these four items. Locate an Inscription trainer to learn a prime or major glyph. Once learned, glyphs cannot be used up.
- 4
  Learn minor glyphs through research at a skill level of 75 or higher. Locate an Inscription trainer and learn "Minor Inscription Research." The research has a 20-hour cool down, so players can effectively learn a new minor glyph once a day.
- 5
  Purchase vanishing powder from an Inscription vendor. Scribes levels 25 through 80 can change or switch out a learned glyph using the powder. Characters above level 80 must purchase dust of disappearance.
