Have you found every WoW Dragonflight Dragon Glyph? Scattered across the Dragon Isles are Dragon Glyphs, special tokens which can be used to unlock dragonriding talents. Each Dragon Glyph increases your overall energy while riding, helping you travel faster and further than before. This guide highlights the location of all Dragon Glyphs and the most efficient path to collect them, though we have some handy tips before you get started.

There are 48 Dragon Glyphs in total, 12 in each zone. All of them are available to collect immediately, and we recommend doing so at the earliest opportunity. When you’re near a glyph in the MMO game, you should receive a buff called Dragon Glyph Resonance – highlight this icon while it’s active to reveal how far away you are from a glyph. Additionally, the key to gaining altitude is to aim your camera straight up while using Skyward Ascent and level out before your speed drops. Finally, spend your dragonriding talent points immediately as this will help you find the rest of the glyphs faster.
