Inscription in MoP

“Back in May of 2010, we began tossing around ideas about how to improve Inscription. But at that time, Mists of Pandaria was still in the early stages of character talent development. As that was hashed out, it directly affected how we were then able to approach potential Inscription and glyph changes. As a matter of fact, at one point during the discussions, glyphs were going to be removed altogether. That then evolved into the idea of Prime glyphs being removed, Major glyphs being adjusted such that their added bonuses did not affect talents, and Minor glyphs being revamped so they felt more interesting.

Have no fear, I have been assured that Inscription and glyph discovery are being actively discussed in preparation for upcoming changes with Mists of Pandaria. This comes with one albeit relieving caveat: Glyphs that are now learned solely through the Book of Glyph Mastery are planned to be available through the Northrend and Minor research dailies."

Just an entry ago, I talked about this, but I'll rehash it because we have talk about it from a blue Blizzard source.

I am pretty shocked that they'd think about removing glyphs all together. Not completely I suppose, but still that would be a really radical step. That would leave inscription as a very empty profession. Even without prime glyphs, we'd probably see at least 150 glyphs cut off the list. That's a massive number. The ones added for the new class won't make up for it.

The second part has them talk about all glyphs being gained through research. I am actually okay with this. The time barrier will still be immense for new competition. Goblins are still likely to outlast their foes interest. I am really happy with this actually. Of course, I'd prefer they never made any changes at all because the northrend ones are hard to farm. The worse case was if they had the books simply dropping off everything 78 to 85. It would flood the market with them and eventually, we'd go back to 15 gold glyph books instead of 500 gold ones.

The other thing is Blizzard talks about redoing minor glyphs. I wholeheartedly agree. There's some really good modern minors...like treant and shadow. Both are great sellers. Then, you have the paladin glyphs—half mana off spells that don't matter. I'd love to see paladins get one that puts their avenging wings on them 24/7. Druids could get glyphs that alter their bear and cat forms. Heck, there's a host of visual effects that could be added. Rain clouds for druids, frost circles for mages, maybe auras for hunter and warlock pets—or even different clothes for the former. None of them would have the slightest gameplay effect, but all would be high in demand. Blizzard would have happier players because they could make their characters more unique. Of course, glyph sellers would make a pile of gold on the exchange.

That's all for now, but these are certainly interesting times. (I did manage to complete three more tsuanmi decks though, bringing my total decks up to 30 this fair.)
