We are considering glyphs that will allow players to remove the knockback from Typhoon, Thunderstorm and Blast Wave in return for some other benefit, such as more damage or a cooldown reduction. You could then use these glyphs when raiding and not make the tanks mad.
Smart.

I was just running Bota heroic and the boomkins knockback is just so annoying.
I just hope people will use this.Posted 11-01-2008 at 05:08 AM by Edgar 
- Strange, I just ran hc botanica yesterday, on my moonkin, I used Typhoon only a few times though...
Do you play Stormreaver, or is this just a very strange coincidence?Posted 11-01-2008 at 10:32 AM by Krigermannen - No I'm on Azshara so it wasn't you

glyphs are going to switch with the dual-spec thing, I believe. I don't have time to look up the blue post on it, but basically the idea was that when you swap specs your whole UI would automatically switch over, glyphs included.
That way if you like the knockback for pvp you can keep it without having to buy up a whole stack of glyphs to swap out every time you want to pvp, which is along the lines of time-consuming effort they want to eliminate with the dual-spec idea.Posted 11-01-2008 at 05:41 PM by Halandir - They'd be no worse for PVP than Glyph of Mortal Strike is, nobody in their right mind would give up 25% of their healing debuff for 10% more damage on MS in PVP.
