One of the best thing about the frost/fire ward removal, that we can get two new Minor Glyphs Hopefully it become something useful not like Polymorph: Bear Cub.
I hope that they will convert some utility Major Glyphs to a Minor one. These are not dps gain and still useful. I don't think they can remove the reagent requirement from Arcane Brilliance or the Portal/Teleport spells. They cannot buff our damaging spells with Minor Glyphs, and all of our not damaging ones have Major Glyphs already.
I wouldn't mind giving fireball a splash damage effect in a small radius when it hits its target if it was possible/viable, essentially a ranged cleave on a main rotation spell, not sure what would have to give up for that to balance it though.
My thought of that comes from WC2 where the mages fireball actually did travel and cause damage (from my memory it did, and it feels like decades ago I played that game).
Might attempt to add some more if I can get my brain working.
