Do you ever use Glyphs/Symbols?

Just curious. I have Symbol of Death and Stunning as prepared spell slots on my clerics as they seemed like great CC spells, but I never actually had the opportunity or remembered to use them. Either the mobs were too easy or too strong.

If you do, could you share the particular situations that called for it?

[rimble]

I've seen some Clerics/FvS make good use of Symbol of Persuasion at the right times, because that's the only sort of charm effect they have access to. Can't recall seeing any of the others used to much effect.

Symbol of Persuasion can come in handy outside of those "kill everything" quests.

Symbol of Fear is also useful for soloing or small, enclosed rooms with lots of trash mobs that don't hide/phase... *cough*PoP*cough*.

Now that's a great idea!

symbol of stunning scrolls works decent in vod for bats on normal

the spell is good on all levels for a lvl 20, problem is you only get one and if it's ill-timed (Sally starts it early) then you're SoL

I see Stunning used quite frequently. Usually in areas folks know mobs are going to spawn. Shroud part four most frequently, but there are other locations. Have also seen Symbol of Persuasion put to good use on the Earth ele's in SoS.

Generally, the Symbols are quite good. But I also do not remember to use them.

Actually the cool down for them really hampers their use IMO.

Symbol of Stunning and Symbol of Persuasion are the most useful, IMO. With a high enough DC they'll even work in Epic.
