Dragon Glyphs are glowing circular objects scattered across the Dragon Isles. You must fly through them to collect them, and they are spent to unlock Dragonriding talents.
We recommend gathering them as soon as you unlock Dragonriding because they significantly improve your leveling experience. You will never have to deal with them again once they are unlocked because they are account-wide.
Unlocking all 48 Dragon Glyphs takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on how quickly you master the fundamentals of Dragonriding.
We have a dedicated guide available for Dragonriding that we recommend visiting before you start gathering Glyphs.Dragonriding Guide
Some Glyph locations are more difficult to find than others. As a result, we advise you to collect them in the following zone order:
Some glyphs will be easier to obtain with increased Vigor and improved Vigor regeneration. As a result, we recommend gathering them in the following zone order:
Additionally, some Glyphs can be more difficult to reach. Therefore, we recommend going for them in the following individual Glyph order:
The zone contains 12 Dragon Glyphs. Collecting all of them will earn you the Waking Shores Glyph Hunter achievement. The exact locations are highlighted on the map below.

To make Glyph collecting as fast and efficient as possible, we recommend you two gathering methods with the help of addons.
The first technique requires TomTom and Macro Toolkit to function. TomTom is significant since it shows Glyph locations and waypoints on your map.
Macro Toolkit is also important because the game’s default macro length is restricted. You may use Macro Toolkit to copy the code from this guide and paste all Dragon Glyph positions into two macros.
Curseforge is where you can get both addons. Determine the location of your World of Warcraft installation. Unzip the folder and put it in World of Warcraft/ retail /Interface/Addons/. On the login screen, ensure that the addon is enabled. You will see an Addons tab in the bottom left corner of the login screen, which you must open and ensure the addons are enabled. If necessary, select the “Load out of date Addons” option.
Once both addons are operational and you log in to the game, type /m and click the Toolkit button.
Create a new Macro, click the Extend button to ensure you can use 1024 characters for the macro. Then, paste the following macros, one by one, one and hit Save.

Drag the macros to your action bar and double-click them. When you open the Dragon Isles map, you’ll notice that it’s been populated with Dragon Glyph places.
The second way makes advantage of AzerPUG’s Dragonrider addon, which when activated shows Glyph locations on the map with no input necessary other than installing the addon. The addon was used to construct the maps in this guide.
