    Don't know if mentioned/intended but with the "heat" system casting certain locked glyph (with NO heat buildup) is triggering a much longer "global cooldown" in which NOTHING can be casted. Executing the same glyph from a dynamic slot creates no such cooldown. Examples spinning attack, eathquake, deathray ...I can understand adding a bit of a longer global to prevent heat spamming, but it only seems to be certain glyphs, and its not just locking that glyph but your entire bar.

    I'm running with a mixed deck. Combat unlocked and buffs locked. Hmmm... Maybe I should try it the other way and see if it still affects the deck the same?

    It didn't make sense that the entire deck would be affected when it's a combat glyph I'm selecting. But then the entire deck is unavailable for a time. I dunno. Feels weird.

    I also use a hybrid deck (4 locked, 6 unlocked). It didn't make a difference if the combat skills or the buffs were the ones locked (tried both) - you still had to wait out the "global cooldown" before you could use ANY of the glyphs, which proved quite deadly when battling a mob of foes :eek: Had to either run away and kite (not so easy with foes' improved A.I.) or just stand there and take the beating, leaving me barely alive after the battle :confused: Not sure if this is how this "heat" system was intended to work, but I am certainly NOT happy about the change :( Dreading to see how this will affect my upcoming PvP tournament duels...:eek:

    Exactly what I experienced with my limited testing this weekend.

    Some locked glyphs are causing global cooldowns for entire combat bar and not just that glyph type.

    I'm sure it's a bug that will get fixed soon.

    yes i know but at the same time someone has to make a complaint if it's ever going to be looked into and hopefully fixed

    I was actually supporting you on what you were saying and trying to give you information you may not have had. :)

    The top part of my post was not directed at you in any way.
