Red Glpyhs

I haven't being pvp often simply because of how boring it is. But with the coming drow set, do you guys think red glyphs will become a problem? Obviously the call for balance with the new trs and dcs have most peoples attention at the moment. The drow set will give good set bonuses for pvp except maybe the control wizard set bonus because they depend on shield on tab. But red glyphs as i remember were suppose to be nerfed but got buffed and is still a big problem in pvp but is out shined by the buffs to dcs and trs. Do you guys think red glyphs are still a problem or will be a bigger problem when the drow set comes out?
Give reasons

    I don't think they're a problem anymore. And they certainly won't become one with the drow set.

    I think they' re still in need of a icd. Drow sets will make them available for most players and i think expecially HRs could become an issue. I play HR too and will go for the drow set for my alt once it comes out. Expecially after tenacity buff. With x2 reds i'll test myself and give feedback

    Every class execpt TR is using glyphs in PvP right now.
    • Will TRs deal more damage when the so called "Drow Set" comes out? Yes. Because they can use glyphs now.
    • Will HRs run faster when the so called "Drow Set" comes out? Yes. Because it gives them 25% more movement speed.
    • Will CWs complain about the setbonus when the so called "Drow Set" comes out? Yes. Because the setbonus doesn't fit in PvP at all.

    But will there be a so called "Drow Set"? Nobody knows... because it has never been pronounced.

    I wonder if the Drow set will just be part of mod 6.

    Well.. Nowadays TRs are killing every other class in 10 seconds or oneshot everyone by SE. With Glyphs they will kill people by throwing a few knives. Very sad.

    PS. I love bonus from my set for CW and I am glad to think that i can back to situation in mod 3 d(^.^)b

    Might mean a drow theme to mod 6 if that's the case then.

    One of the primary reasons red glyph is so strong is because they're modified by %damage, it's also the reason fey thistle hits for unmoded 900 on HR as well.

    The main reason for glyph introduction is to diminish AD from the market by introducing a disposable commodity, so I doubt they will catch any more nerfs anytime soon. What should be focused on instead are the feats that allow them to hit so hard, Simply changing "%damage" to "%damage of your abilities" does the trick.

    I personally hate proc damage in PvP, Storm Spell, Blade Storm, Glyphs. They lopside stat builds and create meta gameplay that usually cheeses the mechanics of PvP. I'm surprised it took the mainstream HR community so long to figure out "Broke Roots", I wonder how long that mess has been in the game.

    If the new PvP set still has the same bad stat config and set bonuses I doubt the gear on my toons will change much.
