Glyphs and Class Runes

Glyphs and Class Runes boost your heroes' stats. Learn more about them in this article.

Glyphs

Every hero has five Glyphs. Each Glyph boosts main or secondary stats.

You need to upgrade your hero's rank to unlock Glyphs: the first two Glyphs become available at the Blue rank, the third — at Violet, the fourth — at Violet +1, and the fifth — at Violet +2.

To level up a Glyph, you can use Rune Stones or emeralds.

You can get Rune Stones: 

• By earning Guild activity points. Each Guild member gets a daily reward with Rune Stones. The reward is based on total Guild activity points earned during the day. It is sent to the in-game mail after your Guild reaches a threshold.

  

• By completing daily quests "Earn 850/1500 Guild Activity points"․
• By completing quests to enchant Glyphs in the Quests tab.
• By completing Hero's Way tasks.
• At the VIP Shop.
• At the Grand Arena Shop.
• From the Heroic Chest.
• By purchasing special offers.

Class Rune

When all Glyphs of a hero reach level 40, this hero gains access to the Class Rune feature. It unlocks class ability — a passive skill that benefits all heroes of the class.

• All heroes of the class can use the class ability in battle, regardless of their Glyph level. Its stats are also the same for all these heroes. For example, if Galahad levels up his Сlass Rune, the class ability will be improved for all warrior characters.
• The opportunity to level up class ability, i.e., Class Rune, is a separate matter and is unlocked only for the heroes whose Glyphs have reached level 40. So, to increase the stats of the class ability, you need to max out the Glyphs first and then upgrade the Class Rune. The process repeats for each hero of the class. One hero can contribute to the upgrade of class ability nine times in total.

To learn more about all class abilities, tap the i button in the upper-left corner of the Glyphs tab. You can check class abilities' descriptions and their level here:

How to Improve Class Abilities

First, you need to upgrade the Class Rune with Rune Spheres. You can get the Spheres by earning 55,000 total Guild activity points, completing tasks in special events, or purchasing special offers.

When you have enough Rune Spheres, tap Improve in the Glyphs tab:

Once you upgrade a Class Rune, both the level and the stats of the class ability will increase for all heroes of the class.

Once you upgrade the Class Rune of a hero, the level cap of their Glyphs increases by five. To unlock the next upgrade of the Class Rune, you need to max out all Glyphs of this hero once again. You can use Rune Stones or emeralds:

Once you upgrade all hero's Glyphs to the new level cap, you can improve the Class Rune again:

After that, the level cap of their Glyphs will again increase by five.

This process repeats until all Glyphs of the hero reach level 80. The chart below shows the hero Glyph levels you need to reach to level up the Class Rune.
