More Warlock Minion Glyphs Plz šŸ˜„

Years ago I suggested that we should get a ā€œDemon Summoningā€ Class Profession like the Death Knight Runeforging, and we could gather items from the world, professions, raids old and new, etc. to summon Demons on a summoning circle and defeat them in 1v1 combat. If you beat them they become your minions, just like the old Summoning quests from Vanilla.

The old 5 Demons would become ā€œDemon Classesā€ like ā€œFlameflingerā€ (Imp), ā€œTemptressā€ (Succubus), etc.

For instance, if I want an Eredar Lady to replace my Succubus, I could get drops from Argus chests, Antorus, ToS, Sunwell Plateu, etc to Summon an Eredar Lady and fight her one on one. She is strong because Eredar, like a Brawlerā€™s Guild boss. Afterwards I see that an Eredar Lady can go into the Flameflinger or Temptress slots, but not the others. So I place her in the Temptress slot. And now I have an Eredar for a Succubus.

But I donā€™t think Blizzard is willing to put all that work on Warlocks. Theyā€™d rather Cannibalize our Class to give new abilities to other Classes.

Your idea is even cooler! But itā€™s too nuanced for modern day blizz :t

Ya if you want a variety of pets, play hunter. Letting warlocks tame demons the same way is too much fun.

Iā€™d love some more demon options! Tired of my Felguardā€™s face.

This would require Blizz to remember that glyphs even exist.

Yeahā€¦ To be honest, glyphs of late have been kind of uninspiringā€¦

Death knights, the last good thing we got was the skeleton petā€¦ We have like 2 recolors of the absorb bubbleā€¦ wraith walk but without the animationā€¦ recolors of wraith walkā€¦ glyph to change path of frost but its actually worseā€¦ kind of underwhelming at best.

I am pretty sure DKs lost that one when Wraith Walk became a Talent because Talents canā€™t be glyphed.

I think Rogues only have like 4 Glyphs.

EDIT: Yup. 4 Rogue Glyphs total. And only one of them is cool.

Couldnā€™t be a crane. Chi-ji, the Red Crane, is the summon for Mistweavers, and his power is more related to healing than tanking. Niuzao stands for fortitude.

See, the DK glyphs are so underwhelming that I even bothered to realize the Wraith Walk ones were gone lol.

And yeah, the only rogue glyph that is remotely interesting is the disguise one. Sadly it breaks on combat, but there was a talent that allowed you to use stealth abilities 3seconds in combat, and if you pickpocketed while IN combat most of the times you kept the disguiseā€¦

no idea if it still works, because Iā€™ve benched my rogue.

Grats on Trust 3!!! I donā€™t think Iā€™ll ever get it, Iā€™m too inconsistent, especially with weekends.

Is an interesting idea though, I donā€™t think there is any harm in more customisation of pets. Itā€™s not like Hunters donā€™t have 15 different options for the one pet family anyway, so whatā€™s the difference?

Mini imp-mother does make me feel uneasy though. Perhaps just the others?

Yeah, but Blizzardā€™s stance on the subject has historically been ā€œif you want Pet customization, the Hunter Class is waiting for you.ā€

Which realistically is a poor statement. Both of those classes specialise in pets. Why should one be treated differently to the other?
Kind of blows that one gets the option but not the other.

I like what you are saying and I think we need more glyphs across the board for all classes.

In general theyā€™re kind of sitting on a goldmine of cosmetics that people will empty their coinpurses for. You think Transmog is a good gold sink? You ainā€™t seen nothing yet!

I want a glyph for my lock that makes my imp (and other pets) wear voodoo masks like Unjari Feltongueā€™s imp Fiznak. https://wow.gamepedia.com/File:Fiznak.jpg

Yup. Glyphs have so much character customization potential but Blizzard ignores them.

devs stated ages ago weā€™d never get them.

No, they didnā€™t. They said there was a rumor that Succubi had killed their males, and another rumor that they kept them hidden. But nobody knew the truth.

They also promised to give Warlocks gender choice for their minions, but never did it.

ā€œIā€™m happy to share we actually do have plans for offering players a choice between male and female versions of all warlock demons. This is a task already in our system, though I donā€™t have a time frame for you at the moment. Other art tasks could always take precedence, but weā€™re committed to making this happen. :)ā€

I just want a Pit Lord for a pet.

Bonus if heā€™s big enough when I feed him Kiblerā€™s bits and use Big Red Raygun he fills up the entire auction house.
