#Glyphs mini update

In that situation, there's actually a compelling reason to break your focus, since you can't DPS when you're dead. That's why it's better to use Lightwell more strategically and only ask other players to divert their attention to a Lightwell when there aren't plenty of heals to go around. Asking non-healers to divert their attention from their jobs when there are plenty of heals to go around is a bit silly. A healer's job is to constantly thinking about surviving, but DPSers have to think about surviving and killing the boss tanks have to think about surviving and protecting the raid. What many healers don't understand about Lightwell is that it really can break up the flow of a DPSer or tank. Even if there is always a player under 50% health in range to receive a heal, Lightspring can't do any more healing than one Lightspring Renew every 5 seconds. Lightspring, on the other hand, has static HPS. Though individual players are limited by the amount of charges they can receive in a set period of time, the raid as a whole is not if you get 15 players to click on the Lightwell at once, you'll add an extra 100,000 healing to the raid from just one tick of Lightwell Renew. The amount of HPS a Lightwell does is dynamic, meaning it can provide a lot or a little healing based on how many people use it at once. In my own experience, the strength of Lightwell is that in a dire moment where GCDs are few and far between, clicking the Lightwell is an effective way to provide additional healing to the raid without stopping what you're doing, whether that's focusing heals on a tank or running for your life. By only allowing the Lightspring to heal once every 5 seconds, the heal isn't any better than a single-target heal from another player, save for the fact that it will work while you're doing other things. I'm guessing the developers decided there wasn't much reason to reduce the amount of healing Lightspring does per tick since the 5 seconds of downtime between each heal is a limitation in itself. In the latest beta build, however, it now looks like the HoTs from both Lightwell and Lightspring will heal for the same amount over time. Originally, it looked like Lightspring would heal players for less than Lightwell, a sort of toll for the fact that Lightspring was automated. While we're on the topic of Lightspring, there has been an interesting development since the glyph was first announced.

Is it just me, or does it look like Lightspring is casting mini Penance balls at its target? Perhaps there is a tiny disc priest trapped inside every Lightspring. In the video above, you'll find animations for Glyph of Shadowy Friends, Glyph of Lightspring, Glyph of the Heavens, Glyph of Holy Resurrection, and Glyph of the Val'kyr. The latest build on the Mists of Pandaria beta allowed players to purchase the newly implemented major and minor glyphs we spoke about two weeks ago.
