    How does cooldown work with glyph stacking? If I stack 5 Aimed Shot glyphs, will I not get another Aimed Shot glyph for at least 20 seconds because they're all cooling down?

    I think so. Seems to be the case with magic.

    That's not what I've experienced with Blades. My best guess is that the CD starts counting when you combine glyphs together(ie combining two glyphs counts as 'using' at least one of them). I have used a 5 stack of Thrust and immediately gotten a new Thrust glyph several times since the patch.

    Yeah, this seems to be what's happening.

    I think the 2x cooldown for unlocked glyphs is too long.

    So, should I go back to having all locked glyphs?

    The defense glyphs I have locked on the right sometimes come up faster than the unlocked attacks that pop up on the left side.

    This was fixed I believe. I can cast a 5 stack of ob arrow and have 2 more pop up immediately after pressing the button. The timer is probably ticking on the first ob arrow and by the time I have a 5 stack and cast it, the first one is ready to pop up. thats my best guess right now.

    I still think that making the unlocked cooldown 2x the locked cooldown is too much.

    I just like spamming glyphs so probably better off locking everything.

    If you have everything else locked up with mind lock and drop a 5 stack, 4 of the 5 glyphs will pop right back in very quickly. So the timer is only effecting one of the glyphs from my experience.

    Yeah, it seems they fixed quite a few things that were broken with the cooldown system for rotating hands... still bit annoying to have long cooldowns on some glyphs.
