5. Resto Glyphs (updated 11/28/2011)
Prime Glyphs (use swiftmend, rejuv, & lifebloom):
- Swiftmend -when you use swiftmend, it won’t consume the HOT.
- Rejuvenation – increases rejuv’s healing done
- Lifebloom – increases LB’s HOT crit chance
Major glyphs (get rebirth, healing touch, and then whatever you want for the 3rd):
Mostly, rebirth is the only good major glyph we have. The rest of them don’t really do anything useful. The 4.3 nerf to the wild growth glyph makes it a horrible glyph for 5-mans, a bad glyph for 10-mans, and an okay glyph for 25-mans. For 5-mans, pick up rebirth, healing touch, and Thorns (just to have something fill that slot). For 10-mans, go with with rebirth, healing touch, & innervate. For 25-mans, you can go with the 10-man setup or pick up wild growth in place of innervate.
- Wild Growth – WG will hit 1 more person, but increases the cooldown to 10 seconds (this nerf is applied in 4.3 that makes your 8 second cooldown be increased to 10 seconds by the glyph).
- Rebirth – Your target will res at full health & mana. This becomes really useful compared to other options so your target doesn’t die as soon as they pop up.
- Healing touch – Casting HT reduces the cooldown on Nature’s Swiftness. Skip if you didn’t learn nature’s swiftness.
- Innervate – This one gets devalued in 4.2 since it sucks to cast Innervate on other people now. This leaves us without a good option for a third major glyph.
- Thorns – reduces your cooldown on Thorns
Minor glyphs (get MOTW, & unburdened rebirth, and then pick whatever you want for the third):
- Mark of the wild (minor) – reduces the mana cost of mark of the wild.
- Unburdened rebirth (Minor) –Rebirth doesn’t cost a reagent (it sucks when you run out of seeds).
- Glyph of the treant (minor) – changes the appearance of your tree form back into the dead broccoli old form, instead of the larger and newer “ancient of war” form. I’d actually glyph tree form for PvP to make the model smaller & less obvious.
- Aquatic form (minor) -Increases swim speed by 50%
- Dash – (minor) reduces dash cooldown
