    I would suspect Rip (15% more dmg from rip) Shred (6second longer rip) and maybe TF or SR. Prime glyphs that is.

    Major glyphs and minors glyphs are mostly utulity glyphs and Only Major's that might actually do some good for your damage would be Ferocious bite

    Prime: Rip, Shred, and either savage roar or tiger fury.

    Savage roar is better assuming 100%(Or close) savage roar uptime and not always using tiger fury the second it is off cd.

    Tiger fury would be better if you can always use it the second it comes off cooldown and maximizing your tiger fury buffed rip uptime.

    Savage roar is probably the safer choice and would most likely be better at our haste/crit at level 80. As far as I know it is still up for debate though.

    For major and minor there is not really much option.

    Prime: Shred, Rip, Savage Roar.
    Major: Only one glyph directly affects DPS, which is Ferocious Bite. The jury is still out on this one. Glyph of Feral Charge indirectly affects DPS (gets you to the boss/add quicker).
    Minor: Glyph of Dash indirectly affects DPS (gets you to the boss/add quicker.)

    how does the FB glyph works please? does it make it so the extra energy is not consumed but still apply a 100% bonus (assuming 35energy, 70total) or does it always apply +100% damage without using extra energy ever (meaning we can fb at 35 safely) ??

    noramly you x damage for 35 engery + an other x damage for 35 extra energy
    so you do 2 * x damage for 70 enegy

    whit glypth you do only x damage for 35 enegery and nothing more

    so if you look at it from a combo point of vieuw you get more out of your 5 combo ponits whitout the glyph

    but engery wise you dont goto 0 enegery anymore when you use it.
    becase it doesnt consome the extra enegery you can now use it during bezerk for example

    so it looks like it needs a lot of theoricrafting on this one isn't it? seems very controvertial to me, and isn't the goal of doing fb at 5cb will be reach in this patch?

    This is the correct info, currently.

    Glyph of Ferocious Bite - Removes the energy conversion fixing the cost at 35. This is a net DPS loss, assuming that the excess energy conversion does not reduce SR/DoT uptime. (Ferocious Bite is more energy
    efficient than Shred.)
    quote from Yawning, creator of Mew and maintainer of Toskk's
    so basically we have no dps major's yet (hopefully) other than charge being a possibility
