New World: Brimstone Glyphs
Season 5: Sequence of Brimstone MSQs and Corresponding Glyph Stones and Rewards
The glyphs discovered in Brimstone can be used to unlock doors and chests in both Brimstone and the Elysium Wilds. These chests may also contain Golden Scarabs, making it worthwhile to unlock them.
Errors in this map:
- ITKA (Below): Glyph #12 is not locked behind the main story quest (MSQ) and is accessible to anyone. To obtain it, you’ll need to complete a jump puzzle across pillars while avoiding goats that try to knock you off.
- RIIGA (Persona): Glyph #18 might be locked behind a quest, but I can’t recall for sure at the moment. I have a character who hasn’t started Brimstone yet, so I will be able to confirm this shortly.
Glpyhs from Main Story Quests
Some glyph stones are locked behind quests within the Brimstone Main Story Quest (MSQ). Here is a list of the ones I’ve discovered:
- AMBA (Mountain) #7: Requires the Power of the Ancients.
- TSADZUI (Wall) #15:Power of the Ancients
- HID (Home) #16: Requires Accursed Apophis.
- J’IJ (Sealed) #14: Requires A God Awakens.
Glyphs Gated by Side Quests
Some glyphs are locked behind side quests, which in turn require you to complete certain quests within the Brimstone Main Story Quest (MSQ). Here’s a breakdown:
- EYBUE (Virtue) #19: Locked behind The Ancient Glyphs, which itself is gated by the Brimstone MSQ Past Prologue (details below).
- TEYII (Journey) #4: Locked behind The Antiquarian’s Dream, which is gated by An Ancient Balancing Act. This side quest requires completion of the Brimstone MSQ Watering the Seed (details below).
- WETZUU (Gift) #5: Locked behind An Ancient Balancing Act, which is also gated by the Brimstone MSQ Watering the Seed (details below).
The Brimstone MSQ (Main Story Quests)
The Brimstone MSQs are gated by the main storyline quests. You need to complete A Shadow Falls before you can start any of the Brimstone MSQs.
