Warlock 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 warlocks. 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.
Warlocks have no new glyphs but do have a lot of name switching or morphing from old abilities into the related new ability. A lot of the warlock glyph changes shift into cosmetic minors.
Glyphs that are changing into new majors:
Chaos Bolt becomes Burning Embers
Immolate becomes Dark Soul
Metamorphosis becomes Demon Hunting
Felhunter becomes Demon Training
Lash of Pain becomes Everlasting Affliction
Imp becomes Imp Swarm
Corruption becomes Siphon Life
Drain Soul becomes Soul Consumption
Haunt becomes Soul Shards
Glyphs that are changing into new minors:
Seduction becomes Carrion Swarm
Soul Link becomes Crimson Banish
Voidwalker becomes Falling Meteor
Incinerate becomes Hand of Gul'dan
Death Coil becomes Nightmares
Howl of Terror becomes Subtlety
Bane of Agony becomes Verdant Spheres
