3.1 Inscription Changes [Updated]
Patch 3.1 PTR is now being tested:
- Trainable recipes are now listed here – including new glyphs and Twilight Tome (off-hand). These are all confirmed available on the PTR.
- No known new discoveries yet.
- No summoned Lexicon of Power. Zarhym confirms that no Lexicon is required to change specs.
- New Grand Master trainer (Arthur Denny) and vendor (Fanii) at the Argent Tournament, on the north-east side of Icecrown. They do not teach or sell anything new. Yet.

New Inscription Research, Scrolls and Glyphs
Beta 8970 adds:
- Northrend Inscription Research, which allows the discovery of (apparently) Inscriber-only glyphs. Read more about research.
- Death Knight and some Warrior major glyphs.
- Many more scrolls can be produced by Inscribers. These require many more materials to make than glyphs.
- Inscriber-only Off Hand items and Masters’ Inscriptions (shoulder “enchants”) are trainable.
- Higher level Tarot Cards (which create “normal” Darkmoon Cards, including level 80 reward Decks) and Vellum (to write down enchants).
- The skill required to train Inscriptions has changed for recipes below skill 400. “Northrend” Inscription is still unfinished.
Glyphs and Pigments
The latest WotLK beta build makes Glyphs available. Recipes can be trained by Inscribers starting at Inscription skill 75 and above. Inscription can currently only be trained to 300 skill. Almost all Inscriptions (recipes) are using temporary “placeholder” materials: It is still far too early to write detailed training instructions. This is a very early implementation of Inscription: Most of the profession is not available.
Glyphs can be applied to an individual to improve their spells. Currently, only Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman and Warlock classes have glyphs. All these glyphs are categorised as “major”: Every individual can apply 3 major glyphs at a time (and in theory also 3 minor ones).
Pomaces have become Pigments! They are gained the same way as before – milling herbs. There have been no changes to the skill required to mill herbs, however each group of herbs now normally produces 2 different types of pigment – a common pigment and a rarer pigment.
Update: El’s Inscription now contains the latest new information. Please post additional information or corrections in the forums.
