Every figure shows its source. Where a source is missing, the number is a placeholder — and it is never written as fact.

BOARD ORDER & ROTATION

Sample
Starting board can't move. Rotations: 0 / 90 / 180 / 270°.

GLYPH TO LEVEL NEXT

Sample
Courageous (sample name)CONTINUE SCALINGLv.45 → 100 (continue scaling) · ~28 Pit runs (sample)
Glyph B (placeholder)CONTINUE SCALINGLv.84 → 100 (continue scaling) · ~8 Pit runs (sample)
Justice (sample name)CONTINUE SCALINGLv.128 → 150 (max — our reading (3.1 PTR notes state 150)) · ~22 Pit runs (sample)
Glyph-to-board pairing is our sample; only names without "sample name" are sourced.Level Glyph B (placeholder) next — continue scaling in ~8 runs. Past 45 gains are mostly additive; stop if Pit runs feel slow.

Courageous

Justice
% = share of the glyph's stat reachable in that socket's radius (sample). Tap a cell to socket the glyph there; outlined = current.

All 3 boards fit in 180 points — 135 left over.

IS THE ROUTE VALID?

Sample points · dates
1 issue — route is not fully executable
  • ✓Path fits the point budget
  • !Wrathful Advance: exit is the entry gate — rotate to 0° / 90° / 180°
  • ✓All glyphs reach their radius
  • ✓All "must keep" targets reached
  • ✓Season data is current

SWAP TWO BOARDS?

Sample
↔
Unmet rare bonuses3 → 3
Inner Conviction requirement+15 per stat
Wrathful Advance requirement-15 per stat
Path points45 → 45 (same nodes)
Moving Inner Conviction to slot 03 raises its rare requirements by 15 per stat; Wrathful Advance gets cheaper by the same amount.

How Paragon works · terms
Paragon board
— a grid of stat nodes unlocked after the level cap; you attach several boards in a chain.
Gate
— the edge square where the next board attaches.
Rotation
— turning a board 90° changes which gate is the exit.
Glyph
— a gem in a socket that boosts nearby nodes inside its radius.
Radius
— how far the glyph reaches; the rank-15 step is our reading, while Blizzard’s 2.0 PTR text says 4 → 5 (article 24130178). BlizzardBlizzard — 2.0 PTR preview (glyph levels, 5 boards)
Rare node threshold
— a rare node's bonus only turns on with enough of a stat — later boards need more.
