Bug Displaying Lowered Glyph Levels

A bug in Patch 1.2.3 is confirmed to have reduced the levels of all leveled Paragon Glyphs by 1-2 Levels in Diablo 4. Naturally, this required players to re-farm Glyph XP to hit significant XP thresholds like Levels 15 and 21.

Players looking to challenge the Abattoir of Zir would do well to check on their equipped Glyphs via the Paragon Board menu since they will not be running their builds at their pre-Patch 1.2.3 potential.

Note: Players who had Level 15 Glyphs pre-Patch 1.2.3 should check their current setup since a level reduction back to Level 14 will reduce the affected Glyph's radius size in your Paragon Board.
