Theres a couple of glyph ideas that I’d like added to the game for more customization.
I think it would be cool if more Feral Spirit and Ghost Wolf options were given rather than just wolf and raptor. Wolf suits Orc and Rapter suits Troll really well, but there should be a huge list of different options for us. Maybe even have a spell that lets us connect with a beasts spirit and it changes both the Feral Spirit and Ghost Wolf to grab its appearance, similarly to how hunters have a huge list of beasts to tame, let us tame its spirit for us to use.
Another appearance option for Ascendance is needed. The model for Ascendance is so weird, and really out dated. Giving us a glyph to change into something else would be very nice.
A glyph for our totems would be kindve cool too. Being able to swap to another races totems if we wanted, or just new totem appearances itself would be nice.
White Lightning Glyph…removing the blue out of lighting and just having it white with a light glow like how lightning is in real life.
BONUS Suggestion: Please make an item that gives shamans a lightning appearance in their eyes, like how Raden has in MK.

This already exists from WoD the reason it isn’t available is likely because Ascendance isn’t baseline anymore. Was basically glyph of the stars but for shamans with some different effects.

Ghost wolf glyphs would infringe upon druid fantasy and every class is getting Ghost wolf if they choose the fairies with spammable blink in SL.
Yet this doesn’t infringe on shamans or mages somehow.

Whats the lore behind shamans only being able to communicate with raptors and wolves though?
Wasn’t the glyph the appearance of the spell now? I never used that glyph because of how terrible it looks.
Nope it just made your character blue or red depending on spec and you had some sparkles, like glyph of stars for druids.

Oh yeah, I remember now it looked like earth wind and fire appearance for monk
I would like the option to have the old “ball lightning” as a glyph option

A big yes to more glyphs, especially the Ascendence and Totems as mentioned above.

I have no idea how challenging it was to design the covenants to work with every class/spec, but as a shaman I see no reason to pick night fae. The ability would be redundant for us wouldn’t it?
the teleport would be the reason.
Racial-themed Feral Spirits/Ghost Wolf glyphs would be wonderful. Wolves and Raptors work well for most Horde core races but not so much for Alliance.
Rams for Dwarves
Talbuks for Draenei
Charhounds for Dark Iron
Ravasaurs for Zandalari
Wickerbeasts for Kul Tirans
Moose for Highmountain
Hyenas for Vulpera

I really want to pick them for the mogs and mounts since … well I mean look at my character. If I logged out in Resto it should be immediately obvious why I want to go for the glowy blue faction.
But between the stupid life steal aoe spell on my healer and the not-ghost wolf when I also have ghost wolf makes it feel like the worst choice by far. It’s upsetting because they both fit Shaman the best and are the faction I was most interested in supporting based on their lore and theme.
But, yes, like everyone else I want more Ghost Wolf glyphs to use! Ideally they’d expand the system into its own thing, maybe just sticking it in the barber like Druid forms or something. I really really want to be a Ghost Talbuk.
I just hope Blizzard does not feel like they need to add a Feral Spirits model to match each Ghost Wolf glyph. I’m fine with those being different spirits since you’d want to call particularly ferocious spirits for a spell like that.

Fork Lightning Glyph for Chain Lightning would be interesting I think.
Instead of the normal chain that reaches out to touch every target, you could opt to see just the results with you as the source.
It’d be horrendous for player feedback as it wouldn’t represent the behavior, the true vectors, of the spell. And with all the lightning extending from the character probably visually noisy as heck.
A Purge glyph that was a call back to the WC3 purge, which was a more electrified field around the enemy would be neat.
Reincarnation glyph, leave behind an Ankh when you die but while reincarnation is available. Just shove it in my face a bit, you know?
I like the idea for the racial themed ghost wolf/feral spirits.
Kodos for Tauren
Pandas for Pandas?
Spacegoats should be goats though
Yeah I have to agree with this post completely.
The least they could do is to update the wolf and raptor forms. They wolves still use the Dreanor model even though they updated the wolves in Legion (Hati and Fenryr). Also Blizz updated the Raptor model in BFA with the Ravasaurs. Im sure a lot of people would like that. Also it’d be an easy fix, assets already exist; just swap them out and test to make sure you did it right.
They’ve added so many customization options already in SL, be nice if shaman had some more.
Of course, some more noise would need to be made for anything to happen.
I’d love it if as a Tauren I could have my ghost wolf be a Kodo. Especially after doing the Tauren heritage quest and seeing that our spirit guide is a kodo. Please blizz. Give me the derp!!!

Need a spirit Ram glyph for ghost wolf, there are just as many dwarves as there are orcs and trolls. Ram would work good for Kul-tiran as well since they can’t be fish on land.
Need a glyph to change appearance of Feral Spirits to BOTH Raptors and Rams. How can we have race specific totems but not race specific spirit animals. Wolves are orcish, Raptors are Trollish.
This is a great idea because Rams // Elephants also can work for Draenei. But Spirit Elekk sounds weird… I’m not against Spirit Elekks though. But at the minimum Ram’s could cover the entire alliance shaman needs a lot better than wolves and raptors.
