Although Glyphs have been expanded into 3 categories, those available to Resto Shaman remain limited at best. Thankfully, this makes Resto glyphing a relative breeze—just hit up your local scribe or the Auction House and apply. No math or theorycrafting needed! (Okay, there’s a little theory behind the CH glyph but it’s just wafer-thin …)

  • Glyph of Earth Shield – (Recommended)
  • Glyph of Earthliving Weapon – Increase only applies to the Earthliving hot; this glyph does not increase the spellpower gained from ELW or from UE:E. (Recommended)
