Priest glyph changes in patch 5.0.4
When the new 5.0 patch flips over on Aug. 28, will you be ready with glyphs? Blizzard is recycling old glyphs instead of making new spell IDs and charring old ones. Some glyphs are staying the same, some are new, but some share IDs with old Cataclysm glyphs.
Below is our list of new or changing glyphs for priests. This is not a list of changing tooltips, just which glyphs you ought to have if you want to automatically have the new glyphs when the patch flips over.
Priest glyphs are confusing. Priests are getting some brand new glyphs and also some switched-around glyphs, such that old glyphs will need to be rediscovered.
Completely new glyphs include:
Mind Flay needs to be rediscovered
Glyphs that are changing into new majors:
Spirit Tap becomes Dark Binding
Mind Flay becomes Dispel Magic
Shadow Word: Pain becomes Holy Fire
Power Word: Barrier becomes Inner Focus
Flash Heal becomes Inner Sanctum
Guardian Spirit becomes Leap of Faith
Shadow Word: Death becomes Mind Blast
Divine Accuracy becomes Mind Spike
Dispel Magic becomes Purify
Shadow Protection becomes Reflective Shield
Prayer of Healing becomes Spirit of Redemption
Glyphs that are changing into new minors:
Fortitude becomes Borrowed Time
Shadowfiend becomes Dark Archangel
Fading becomes Shadow Ravens
