How Glyph progression works
In early DERELIKT builds, players collected Insight, spent it to open slots in a grid, and equipped Glyphs in those slots. They could also spend Insight to upgrade slots they already had. That gives you a choice between making room for another Glyph and improving one of your existing options.
Find Glyphs and collect Insight
Look for Glyph fragments while exploring. The official DERELIKT Steam announcements mention fragments as a possible find when new tools let you revisit previously blocked routes.
Preview players describe collecting Insight as they explored. One player reported finding a fragment, gaining access to Glyphs, and using Insight to improve them. Another described spending Insight to unlock positions on the grid and upgrade those positions. These accounts describe early builds.
Choose between a new slot and an upgrade
If you have a useful Glyph waiting to be equipped, check what it costs to open another slot. If the Glyphs you already use fit what you need, compare that cost with improving a slot you have. The preview commentary mentions movement speed, attack power, and health as examples of bonuses. Read the description in your build before committing Insight to any one bonus.
