[Fox]

# Glyph of Cloak of Shadows - While Cloak of Shadows is active, you take 40% less physical damage.
# Glyph of Fan of Knives - Increases the damage done by Fan of Knives by 20%.
# Glyph of Hunger For Blood - Increases the bonus damage from Hunger For Blood by 1% per application.
# Glyph of Killing Spree - Reduces the cooldown on Killing Spree by 45 sec.
# Glyph of Mutilate - Reduces the cost of Mutilate by 5 energy.
# Glyph of Shadow Dance - Increases the duration of Shadow Dance by 4 sec.
# Glyph of Tricks of the Trade - Your Tricks of the Trade grants an additional 10% bonus damage to your target

Looks like some good buffs for mutilate since they didn't really have any assassination tree glyphs before. I would probably use the killing spree glyph over the rupture one for combat spec. If there is a new fight in Ulduar that requires massive fan of knives spam....it looks like we have a solution there too.

I also saw this while reading 3.1 patch notes.

Hysteria, Tricks of the Trade, Enrage, Wrecking Crew, Death Wish, Arcane Power, Owlkin Frenzy, Beast Within, Avenging Wrath and Hysteria damage bonuses no longer stack together.

So this means we are definitely running a tricks of the trade rotation on each other now. Perhaps we should all pick up the tricks glyph.

I realize you guys will maybe use the second spec for pvp, but what about a trash-focused spec/glyph build that includes Glyph of Fan of Knives? From the sounds of it, you could switch for trash -> boss -> trash to get more dps.

But you need a lexicon of power to switch, and unless the portable ones are super easy to get and use, then itd get pretty tiring pretty quick.

That requirement was removed. You can also get the ability at level 40 (same price). Its just a click of a button, 5 seconds later and you're golden at the moment (obviously subject to change).

We could do a second spec for trash only. The thing I ask is will trash be hard enough for us to actually worry about a little extra dps? We do a lot with FoK now in our current specs and a little more may start to be dangerous on threat :)

[Fox]

Who knows? There might be an encounter or two where we face a mob of spell casters that need to be silenced. We could have Throwing specialization and the Fan of Knives glyph to silence them and do massive amounts of AoE damage.
