glyph ideas (pet abilities)

Unread post by Xota »

BfA had very few new glyphs, hopefully there's more going forward. One thing they could expand on, is glyphing to an individual pet's abilities, so individual pets could be different. I think there's pet size glyphs currently, but aren't they tied to "call pet" slots?

Anyways, the first set here are ideas for the various shield wall abilities. I figured they'd have to be as noticeable as the yellow dome is now, and unambiguous, so these are mostly visual effects from similar spells from other classes. The number on the file names are for visual ids, if you're using narcissus. They'd need scaling/anchoring, they clip poorly, but this is generally how they might look.

A second set of glyphs could change Bestial Wrath / Coordinated Assault visuals for pets. It could attach to a spell like 'attack' or 'bite', and change the visual for both hunter specs. I don't think it'd be too much of a problem, they look very similar already. These three effects are already associated with burst damage.

The lightning skin effect from Titanstrike should be brought out of retirement. BW doesn't have to be big-red.

Those are good ideas, I wish bestial wrath could be like any of these, and yeah, I agree about the shield thing, they should all have different visuals than a mecha dome
