baratron's Adventures in ESO Enchanting after Update 4!

Before Update 4

• Only white glyphs would be received in item drops.
• Very little inspiration was received from glyph creation. Far more inspiration was received from glyph extraction.
• Deconstructing white glyphs made by other players gave considerably more inspiration than white glyphs received in drops.
• Different Essence runes gave slightly different amounts of inspiration.
• There was almost no difference between white glyphs of different levels, e.g. Using the same Essence stone, a white level 40-50 glyph gave 1093 inspiration upon extraction, whereas the white V1-V3 glyph gave 1101 inspiration.
• The different colours of glyph scaled as follows:

Type of Glyph	Relative Inspiration Compared to White Glyph
White	x1
Green	x4
Blue	x5
Purple	x6
Gold	x7

Given the huge changes in Enchanting in Update 4, I wanted to get some hard numbers to find out how things had changed.

Experiment 1: Does Essence Rune matter?

I took a load of white Major Glyphs (V1-V3) received in drops and extracted them with a character who began with level 22 Enchanting.

Type of Glyph	Number	Inspiration Received
Major Glyph of Flame	1	2284
Major Glyph of Flame	2	2361
Major Glyph of Flame	3	2361
Major Glyph of Magicka	1	2284
Major Glyph of Reduce Spell Cost	1	2284
Major Glyph of Reduce Spell Cost	2	2361
Major Glyph of Shock	1	2284
Major Glyph of Shock	2	2207*
Major Glyph of Stamina	1	2361
Major Glyph of Stamina	2	2284
Major Glyph of Stamina	3	2361

Note: The second Major Glyph of Shock was definitely bugged because it dropped a Pora runestone (level 40-50) on extraction, instead of Denara (V1-V3). I don't know why.

Conclusion: Essence rune does not affect the amount of inspiration received.

Experiment 2: Is there any connection between inspiration gained and runes received upon extracted?

I took eight white Major Glyphs of Stamina (V1-V3) made by my character with level 50 Enchanting, and extracted them with a character who began with level 23 Enchanting.

Glyph Number	Inspiration Received	Runestones Received
1	2284	Ta
2	2284	Denara
3	2284	Denara
4	2284	Denara, Deni
5	2284	None
6	2284	Deni
7	2284	Ta
8	2284	None

I also tested four green Major Glyphs of Stamina (V1-V3):

Glyph Number	Inspiration Received	Runestones Received
1	4568	None
2	4568	Deni, Jejota
3	4568	Denara, Jejota
4	4568	Denara, Deni

and four blue Major Glyphs of Stamina:

Glyph Number	Inspiration Received	Runestones Received
1	7628	None
2	7628	None
3	7628	Denata
4	7628	None

Conclusions:

• The amount of inspiration received is not connected to the number of runes received on extraction of the glyph.
• It should always be the same, assuming that you are using the same type of glyph.
• White glyphs created by players give the same amount of inspiration as white glyphs received in drops.
• I have no idea why some of the dropped glyphs gave slightly more relative to others. They just did, okay?

Experiment 3: How does inspiration from extraction scale with glyph colour?

I created one Major Glyph of Health (V1-V3) in each colour with my character with level 50 Enchanting, and extracted them with a character who began with level 25 Enchanting.

Type of Glyph	Inspiration Received	Relative Inspiration Compared to White Glyph
White	2284	x 1
Green	4568	x 2
Blue	7628	x 3.34
Purple	13606	x 5.96
Gold	13606	x 5.96

Conclusion: Don't bother wasting Kuta to make glyphs for decon. There's no point.

Experiment 4: How does inspiration from glyph creation scale with glyph colour?

My character with level 25 Enchanting made glyphs using Porade + Deni + an Aspect rune.

Type of Glyph	Inspiration Received	Relative Inspiration Compared to White Glyph
White	232	x 1
Green	464	x 2
Blue	774	x 3.34
Purple	1392	x 6

I couldn't make gold glyphs because you need to have Enchanting level 31 in order to take Aspect Improvement III.

Conclusion: The inspiration multipliers are identical for glyph creation and extraction.
