The Glaivier is the most recent class to land on Lost Ark’s western servers. This fearsome warrior wields a pair of mighty pole weapons, striking up close with a spear or afar with a deadly edged glaive. Mastering the Glaivier is no easy task, so we’re made this Lost Ark Glaivier Engravings guide to help you along your journey.
Glaivier Engravings Guide
Just like every class in Lost Ark, the Glaivier comes with two unique class engravings. Because these engravings fundamentally change how the class is played, they often can’t be taken together and are the foundations for your builds. For Glaivier, these engravings are Pinnacle and Control.

But what exactly do these class engravings do?
- Pinnacle – Lv. 3: Adds Pinnacle: Flurry/Focus III instead of the Flurry/Focus Stage 3 effect added upon changing stances while the Dual Meter is maxed at Level 3.
- Control – Lv. 3: Cannot use Focus stance. Flurry skills Damage +36%.
While Pinnacle may seem a little confusing, you should basically see it as your standard Glaivier playstyle up to this point, just improved. Control is much more straightforward; It locks you out of your Focus stance, but buffs your Flurry skills damage significantly. With these two engravings in mind, our builds are going to be called Pinnacle and Control, based around which class engraving you choose to take.
These are no means comprehensive lists. They may sometimes leave some room for you to customize your build, but we recommend taking these engravings first. As the game gets patched and the meta shifts, you may find these builds get weaker, but at the moment these are the best Glaivier engravings builds we can find.
