    Since unlocked skills have the same cool-down as locked skills, having less glyphs in your deck doesn't mean that you can spam them faster. So, what is the point of slugs now?

    It is for balance reasons. You can spam with locked at the cost of increasing your focus cost, but slugs prevent you doing this with an unlocked deck. Also prevents decks for stacking, unless you are using 80+ skills with 5 glyphs. It is possible to make stack decks with lower skills, it just gets tedious and time consuming, rendering it useless in combat.

    Yah, if it werent for slugs, you could hit with your best glyph in an incredibly rapid fashion. Id love to just have a deck of nothing but 5 stone fist glyphs and no slugs! But that would be way too unfair.

    Actually, it doesn't. Go ahead and try it out. There is the same cool-down for unlocked glyphs now as there is for locked glyphs. The slugs were there because the glyphs in an unlocked deck didn't have a cool-down before. They do now and the slugs are nothing more than an annoyance.

    See above.

    [edit] Here's the information in the R39 instructions:
