Thank you very much for watching 🙂 If you haven't watched the video that explains the entire Glyph System, here is the link : kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKCaaJh4o8uKiqc We are almost at a new milestone together, 2000 subscribers 😀. And once we cross it, I'll make another give away.

I've been playing this game for so long yet know so little about so many things in the game. Most of the better glyphs are so expensive but at least I know now what each of them does and when to use what when I'm out and about gathering stuff. Someone has to be super rich to get some or all of these glyphs. In the LONG RUN I will be working my way up to buying some of these so please don't delete any of your videos so I can always refer back to them!!! Thank you for this video.

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

I will never delete this video or any my others, so don't worry about it 🙂 Just remember that this video is based on the current market prices. But if they changed in a big way in the future, I'll make another updated version

The Alchemy Glyph is around 105 gold and can make that up in much shorter time period than most "upgrades" in the game. 150 Orichulcum will give over 3.5 gold per day, and 150 Ancient is around 2 gold. Get the guild buff for 20% bonus, too. Note: having 2 Alchemy glyphs will not allow one to get double the upgraded mats. It just makes farming the mats so much faster, even though glyph swapping is so quick.

Great guide for newbies I really like your explanations. GW2 is sure a very interesting game.

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

Thank you :) I'm glad you liked the guide

[@grantmcmanus5776]

I just came back to the game after a bit of a hiatus and had completely forgotten these were in the game! Very helpful, thank you

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

Welcome back to GW2! If you had any questions feel free to ask and I will do my best to help 🙂

[@orack6355]

After testing a bit of all, Industry is for me the best, it's so fast, really convenient and for me time > few more silver. Cuz the more time you get the more gold you can do :)

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

That is a very reasonable conclusion! Good job on testing and selecting what's best for you

[@tombocai]

I don't have any glyph or unbreakable tool, because that's all too expensive, so I'm not sure if this only works on unbreakable tools, but I heard Mukluk give this tip. For example, if you use a gathering tool to get volatile magic, but change the skin for a tool with 50% faster gathering, you will still get volatile magic and gather faster as the animation is shorter.

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

That can work indeed. But you must already have an unlimited tool in the first place to be able to change skins. Also, changing skins consume 1 Transmutation Charge each time, which is not something that all players get easily. And last, not all unlimited tools are fast, actually a lot of them are slow. Only a couple of Unlimited Harvesting Sickles in my opinion can be considered 50% faster. So in my opinion, it is not worth it all to do that. And I am speaking from h a first hand experience here, since I have a lot of unlimited tools, and glyphs, and I still buy and use the limited tools with Karma, and use them as it is, even though I have hundreds of Transmutation Charges

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

First of all, could you please explain what do you mean when saying "Alchemy Glyph mentioned a link but it wasn't provided" ? I am not sure I understood that part at all. Sorry 😦 There are certain unlimited tools that are WAY faster than others. For example, the Consortium Harvesting tool is at least twice as fast ( Probably even more ) as the basic tools or other unlimited ones, like the Cosmic Harvesting Tool. The same goes for a couple other unlimited tools for mining and logging. And yes you can change skins on gathering tools, exactly the same way you change skins on armor for example. Go to the wardrobe tab, select your tool, and you will notice on the left side other skins you can choose from based on the ones you bought from the Gem Store. But just like armor and such, it will consume a transmutation charge, which is why I say that you should only do that to unlimited tools. And I agree with you on Clockwork Glyph, it is overall the most profitable Glyph for Mining And Logging, if you don't care about Max Profit from certain maps or changing based on zone level etc.. I hope that answered all your questions, but if you had more or something I said now was not clear, please let me know 🙂

[@philadams493]

interestingly if you where you use time as a factor, then would it be be possible to see the industry as the most profitable. per say money/ per hour

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

Sadly, that is not the case nowadays. Most of what you gather is just not worth it on its own to make Industry more profitable than Volatility for example. Industry is more of a QoL thing and it's still very useful overall, it's also more profitable than normal tools for sure as it saves time, but just not as profitable as other options

[@strange-universe]

oh man, I didn't think about swapping the Glyph of Reaping out of the sickle and using it on wood after Alchemy Glyph is capped for the day. BTW, I use the Alchemy in both axe and pick simultaneously and that seems to work out great in Malchor's. How many chars I use depends on node layout. That region you circled in Cursed Shore is a where I jump to finish off gathering if needed. Personally, I see no reason to hit the Mithril nodes for Mithril. Thanks for the uploads!

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

I only have 1 Alchemy Glyph now and swap it between gathering ore and wood. But I plan to get another Alchemy glyph in the future. And I completely agree with you on Mithril. Sadly, there is no point gathering it for the mithril ore, it's what you get from the Glyphs that makes it of any use

[@strange-universe]

@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Yep, and plenty of Mithril with salvaging.

[@legenddairy9631]

Glyph of bounty is very helpful if you grow the ascended food. Any extra hit here is worth an extra ~0.5 gold at current prices. However, it is really the only place I use the bounty tool.

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

You're absolutely right. I do something very similar

[@kirby3355]

@@GamingTutorialswithJohny overload is better for ascended food so you can guarantee the extra strikes (also cheaper :p)

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

That is 100% correct. The problem with overload are the limited number of charges and the time it takes to charge them. If you have 1 garden plot in your home, it may not be too much of a problem. But if you have 2 or 3, it will take a lot more time to gather them all with overload. And honestly, at the end of the day, you don't get THAT many more with overload than bounty, especially if you have the booster from the candy corn gobbler. I remember using both of them for about a week, and I actually got more from bounty overall than I did with overload, but that's only with boosters. Without boosters, overload give me maybe 1-2 more from all nodes on average.

[@kirby3355]

@@GamingTutorialswithJohny yeh that’s fair. Only having one plot makes it easy. I just gather some winterberries or a flax farm and i can hop in and get my extra strikes fast

[@iNioiiviiaiNie]

Woah that reaping glyph caught my attention most. Sad thing is they cost way too much to even consider buying. The highest i would go for glyphs is 100g but those seem not worth it

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

Remember that you can buy limited tools with karma that contains those glyphs. If you don't know how, check my other video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKCaaJh4o8uKiqc

[@TheMperor5]

@@GamingTutorialswithJohny and is that an efficient way of converting karma to materials/gold? 🤔

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

It 100% is for sure. Probably one of the best, if not THE best way to use your karma

[@strange-universe]

@@TheMperor5 I got a Skyscale set of tools at the Gem store last year, came with Reaping, Alchemy, and the one that drops a tier from the wood or ore node. Getting them in a tool makes for a better deal, if possible.

[@ivanillarionov1705]

There goes ~1.5k gold for 3 Volatility Glyphs

[@GamingTutorialswithJohny]

Good luck with that 🙂 I have them too and I really like them
