Is the Chalice Glyph not working, and are you looking for assistance?

  • Have you attempted to locate the highest tier of Caryll rune, the specific version of your preferred weapon, or perfect blood gems with a cozy farming route, only to find that the chalice glyph is no longer working, even though it is listed on the wiki or other platforms? The purpose of this wiki page is to help you find the right active glyph that meets your needs or to direct you to the appropriate resources for assistance. First, let's review the fundamentals of chalice glyphs to clear up any potential confusion.

Basic Information from the Chalice Dungeon FAQ (09/24) [By Esper_Row, with input from the Tomb Prospectors’ Discord]

  • What is a glyph?
    When a hunter creates a root dungeon, a unique eight character code will be generated for it and made visible in the bottom right corner of the dungeon menu. Think of this as a password that can be entered to access that dungeon again at any time. To enter a glyph, interact with any of the six ritual altars and select “Search by Chalice Glyph”.
  • I just made an interesting glyph, how do I make it open to others?
    Interact with the ritual altar holding said dungeon and select the option to share it. This will enable access to other players once you have shared it with either an open or closed privacy setting.
  • What is the difference between a dungeon being open or closed?
    An open glyph can be entered by any player ringing at the Makeshift Altar, allowing hunters to summon cooperators or be invaded by adversaries directly from the Hunter's Dream. This is a convenient option for hunters looking to help a friend on a lower layer of a difficult dungeon. Bear in mind that it takes much longer on average to be summoned from the Makeshift Altar than from inside the dungeon itself, so you may need to be patient when waiting to connect.

    A closed dungeon can only be accessed by inputting its corresponding glyph at a ritual altar. Hunters will not be able to enter these dungeons with the Makeshift Altar and must instead ring their bells near the host’s proximity on the same layer of that dungeon. Most save-edited farming glyphs are closed.
  • Why was my glyph deleted from the server?
    Glyphs that are not routinely accessed by other hunters will eventually expire and be removed from the server, presumably to maintain space for others. While we do not fully understand the specifics of how this happens, it typically takes around two weeks of inactivity for a glyph to be purged. Sadly, there is no way to recover a glyph once it is gone. If you want to keep your glyph alive as long as possible, consider sharing it with friends and/or the community on social media to increase the chances of other hunters using it.
  • What happens if my glyph is deleted from the server while I still have it on an altar?
    Others will no longer be able to access it, but as long as you keep the chalice there, you can still use it. However, if you delete it, you won’t be able to find that glyph again.
  • Why don’t I meet the requirements for entering [insert dungeon]?
    Two conditions must be met to enter any standard root dungeon:

  • First, you must have already obtained the corresponding root chalice for the glyph you are trying to enter.
    Example: pwmf22gu, a classic farming glyph, is a Pthumeru Ihyll. Entering it requires the Pthumeru Ihyll Root Chalice or its sinister variant in hand.
  • Second, you must have previously generated at least one dungeon with all of the same rites as the glyph you want to access. Creating a single root dungeon with the fetid, rotted, and cursed rites all applied is sufficient. There is no need to complete this dungeon, enter it, or keep it on an altar; the act of making it will guarantee that you can enter glyphs with any combination of the FRC rites, so long as you also meet the first condition.

Note: The same rule applies for the sinister rite, thus you must make your own sinister root dungeon with its rite enabled before having access to any sinister glyphs. This is less important than the other rites, as sinister chalices are never used for farming glyphs.
