In Diablo 4, leveling up your Glyph XP through Nightmare Dungeons is the best way to max out the efficiency of your build. A player compiled the completion times of different Nightmare Dungeons, revealing the one that’s best for farming Glyph XP.

In Diablo 4, Glyphs are an important aspect of your Paragon Boards, because they add a few buffs to the skills that you use with your character.

The only way to level up your Glyphs in Diablo 4 is by completing a Nightmare Dungeons. However, there are a few Nightmare Dungeons that take too long to complete either because their objectives are spread far apart, or the map in general is too large.

In this regard, player ‘iampanax’ shared an infographic on Reddit where they had listed out all the dungeons in the game with the estimated completion time.

They also categorized these Dungeons in tiers, turning it into a tier list of Diablo 4 Nightmare Dungeons best for Glyph leveling.

As seen in the chart made by the OP, the Nightmare variant of the Ghoa Ruins Dungeon is the best one to level up Glyphs in Diablo 4. Although the dungeon itself is huge, it does not have too many sub-objectives.

All you need to do is destroy three statues to unlock the door to the boss fight and then defeat the Drowned Seahag. During the endgame stages in Diablo 4, where you can technically one-shot bosses, OP claims that you can complete the Ghoa Ruins dungeon in 66 seconds only.

The Komdor Temple comes in a close second place with an average completion time of 88 seconds. If you have enough sigils for these two Dungeons, you can easily level up your Glyphs in Diablo 4.

If, however, you come across Sigils for Tomb of Saints or even Champions Demise, you should not be using these Dungeons to level up your Glyphs in Diablo 4, because according to OP these take the longest to complete.

While there are a few players who’ve argued that completing Nightmare Vaults is quicker because their patterns are the same, almost everyone believes that it’s not possible to complete these Vaults in under a minute. Furthermore, unlike Nightmare Dungeons, the final room in the Vaults don’t give any character XP at all.
