i noticed something about glyphs
Verdant Etching.
Bristleback can’t hit anything? Let’s fix the HP bug instead.
To go into a bit more detail on what vespers said, the light field isn’t tied to glyphs by default. Rather, Seed of Light (the #2 skill in Celestial Avatar form) creates a brief light field before it “pops”. And the Verdant Etching trait triggers Seed of Light on glyph cast. So while running Verdant Etching, yes, you essentially get a short-lived light field when you use a glyph.
