Glyph Suggestion

[jason.1083]

I got an idea, what if we had 2 glyph slots on permanent tools.

And if it sounds like a good idea, do you think we can convince Anet about it?

Glyphs are a skill type playable by elementalists and druids.

Armor have runes.

Weapons have sigils.

We also got infusions on most pieces of equipement.

I do belive that sigils would be the right enhancement type when talking about tools. Or they could go with engravings, pins, charms, straps... etc.

Well, I'm talking about adding a second slot to the already existed glyphs for tools, so we can have 2 enhancements going at the same time. 

Like for example having both https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Glyph_of_the_Unbound and https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Glyph_of_Volatility at the same time.

Nothing against this idea. More stuff is more.. stuff, stuff, stuff!

I considered that some people would say it sounds OP, but to be fair, investing that much gold into a tool for it to have 2 glyph upgrades on it would make it fine.

this is why it needs a term change. No idea why the developers thought it was a smart idea to label two different things by the same name as if that wouldnt cause confusion.

Why stop at two?  Why not enough slots so that every glyph could be socketed?

what would happen if you use alchemy and crucible at the same time?

I'm guessing you'll just get the same thing as if you had none, regardless of witch one kicks in first.

What's the developers incentive to make this change?

Sell more glyphs, i guess.

Still, as someone already pointed out, a lot of glyphs are just not compatible with each other, so it would require a complete overhaul of the system - which i doubt would happen unless Anet thought the gains would be truly massive.
