Introduction
Once you get to World Tier 3, you’ll gain access to one of the most lucrative activities for both Experience and Progression, Nightmare Dungeons. Below is our Nightmare Dungeon Tier List to help you choose which Sigils are worth using and which ones you should Salvage.
THE NAMES OF THE NIGHTMARE DUNGEONS ARE IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER TO MAKE THEM EASY TO FIND.
IMPORTANT NOTE – The goal of the Tier list is to optimize BOTH your time as you level and level up your Glyphs. If you are just looking for one or the other you can use the Column to Prioritize your Nightmare SIGILS.
- S TIER – GREAT at BOTH XP and GLYPH XP
- A TIER – EXCELS at either XP or GLYPH XP
- B TIER – GOOD at either XP or GLYPH XP
- C TIER – OK – NOT GOOD BUT CAN DO IN A PINCH
- F TIER – AVOID THE SIGIL
