For players that would prefer to use the previous version of the new Ascendance model or the older version of the Ascendance model, there will be glyphs that will let players change their Ascendance model. These glyphs will be purchasable with gold from Flamesmith Lanying in the Shaman Order Hall.

• New Glyph: Glyph of Traditional Ascendance – Your Ascendance transformations embody their traditional forms.
• New Glyph: Glyph of Energetic Ascendance – Your Ascendance transformations embody energetic forms, unleashing their power.
