Druid Glyphs Updated for Patch 4.3
Level 85 druids can have up to 9 Glyphs on their character at any one time: 3 Primary Druid Glyphs, 3 Major Druid Glyphs and 3 Minor Druid Glyphs. These glyphs help how different talents and spells work. You may want to change the glyphs you are using to suit the encounter you are on. For instance, maybe you are going to be fighting a boss that has a lot of adds, in this case you may want to use a glyph that will help your AOE.
Below I list the best druid glyphs for each tree as well list of all druid glyphs available in the game and what they do.
