Interesting idea about the Glyph being designed to help Ferals and healers who aren’t specced as deeply Resto. However, I imagine Glyphs are more like gems and are semi-permanent. They’re probably destroyed when you replace them (to keep Inscriptionists in business) and Ferals aren’t likely to want to replace their tanking-oriented Glyphs with something to heal an instance if it means they have to repurchase them.

When will the -50% heal be applied? Off the base heal amount from healing touch? Off the coefficient from +heal/spellpower ( which would bring it in line with curent 1.5s cast spells ) or off the final heal total, knocking an 8k heal down to a mere 4k?

In each case, different mechanics are used, and I can see different ways to maximize its use.

I was curious if A) as mentioned, the healing coefficient was going to remain at the 100% mark, that would mean that stacking +heal would boost this above nourish fairly quickly, as nourish is limited to the 3/7 coefficent.

and B) not being in the beta, is theinscription always on? We have the option of Downranking a spell, and macros always write Healing Touch (rank 13) . Do you HAVE the option to cast a spell without the benefit of the inscription?

While most of the readers here are straight up ToL druids, consider how powerful this spell becomes to dreamstate healers who dont have natures swiftness? Or in my case, when I have to heal as feral cause we are light a tank in our small guild, I dont have access to either Swiftmend or Natures swiftness, this would be obscenely useful in an encounter when I have to heal. When running Instances now as feral dps, sometimes the healer dies, and I can pop out, swap weapons and spam healing touch on the tank ( assume rebirth is on cooldown) till we can get the healer back up.

Basically, Inscribed Healing touch doesnt look to me like its designed for full resto druids, who have more tools available for healing than some of our offspec
Siblings.
