WotLK Paladin / Shaman Glyph Changes

October 3, 2008 by Zuggy 

A few glyphs changes for paladins and shamans in the most recent beta update, build 9038. I like the paladin changes, though the 100 yards on a holy light seems a bit excessive. I would not be surprised to see this reduced to a more reasonable the 30-60 yard range.

The shaman changes on the other hand are flat out horrible. 3 or 4 minutes off the elemental totems are not going to convince any shaman to take these glyphs. There really is no situation where you can say…”yes, If only I had that extra 4 minutes off the totem…” If these glyphs were buffed to a 10 minute reduction or changed from major to a minor glyph you could make a case for them, otherwise I just don’t see any way you’d choose these over other glyphs.

Paladin

  • Glyph of Holy Light – Your Holy Light grants 10% of its heal amount to up to 5 friendly targets within 100 yds of the initial target. (range changed from 5 to 100 yards)
  • Glyph of Flash of Light – Your Flash of Light heals for 50% less initially, but also heals for 140% of its initial effect over 12 sec. (duration changed from 15 to 12 sec)

Shaman

  • Glyph of Fire Elemental Totem – Reduces the cooldown of your Fire Elemental Totem by 4 min. (old version was 3 min)
  • Glyph of Earth Elemental Totem – Reduces the cooldown of your Earth Elemental Totem by 4 min. (old version was 3 min)
