What I would like to see add or changed with some glyph is more of a proc style sort of like a trinket. "Avengers Shield now has the chance to increase your dodge by 200% for 10 seconds". That sort of thing. That's something that makes using a specific glyph for your gear or spec more meaningful.
A few hybrid glyphs would be nice. Like if you dps a lot but are sort of an off healer in raids, have a dps glyph that gives some healing benefits. Since they've made it impossible to go hybrid with talents, why not open it up a bit with glyphs?
And frankly it's of course come down to which glyphs you the 10% to what spell or ability. Yep, those are the ones you always use for that spec. Yadda yadda.
Not true.
What part of the post isn't true?

The B team is just bad at character development. It is the same thing with the new play style they are forcing on us. Gone are nice tight rotations, with the proc to watch for thrown in. Now it is single abilities, mostly auto-attacking and watching for 18 different procs.
Example, while it was bashed for being faceroll, the WotLK Ret pally was a well crafted thing, all the CDs fit perfectly and you had a set pattern to work with and tweak, you judge, you CS, you DS, you CS, you judge...all the other bells and whistles were worked in around that basic formula. Ret pally is stupid now, CS and DS share a CD, Judge and CS CD's don't match up, you build combo points like a rogue and use TV and spend a WHOLE lot of time auto-attacking. And don't even get me started on how generic all the specs are...everyone within a spec is EXACTLY the same. Something they swore would not happen and they made changes to the talent system to prevent. Its like everything they say they are going to do, they do the exact opposite.
As someone who played ret paladins in LK, 100% agreed.

That part. It didn't always come down to the 10% to what spell or ability, glyphs used to do interesting things now and then. Now they are just addons and percentages.

That is exactly what was said, that it is now just a percentage to a skill. Trouble reading?

"Glyphs - Do they really allow for customization or will there still be best in slot?"
What's there to discuss...
You're lucky if there's 3 glyphs per tier worth using. There surely is no margin for "customization" for any given spec. There *might* be a few glyphs for your spec that you would only use if you're confused or fail at WoW's new moron proof design for talents and glyphs.

Now that I think about it. Isn't part of the reason they removed the Path of the Titans alternate advancement because the new and improved Glyph System covered a lot of the customizability (not a word i dont think) that this was suppose to provide?
Instead we don't get anything extra in the way of customizing with this new system.

Glyphs are nothing more than a direct equivalent to the 2-party system in America's gov't.
They're both there to provide the illusion of choice.

Lots of broken link codes for shoes.
Is the shoe business really so bad you need to advertise on a WoW forum?
