Gw2logo.png The Guild Wars 2 Wiki also has an article on Glyph.

Skill type. A glyph is a type of skill and are used to alter the effects of the next one or more spells cast.

  • Glyphs cannot be removed by foes once they have been activated.
  • All Elementalist glyphs cost 5 energy to cast and have an activation time of one second.
  • If the glyph is not completely "used up" within a time (15 seconds unless otherwise specified), the glyph's effect ends.
  • If a glyph is cast while another glyph is already active, the new one replaces the old one. Casting a glyph is not casting a spell, therefore none of the effects of the previous glyph will affect the new one.
  • Spells will not generally consume a glyph's "charges" if they are cancelled, the only exceptions are Glyph of Energy and Glyph of Lesser Energy.
  • Glyph effects always occur before the effect of the spell where applicable, such as Glyph of Immolation and Glyph of Restoration.
