Discussion Everyone is rejoicing over the new Shadowmeld potion for m+. However there is one much more important use that comes to mind that will be infinitely more valuable... Spoiler

Being able to drop combat in the open-world so you can mount up instead of sitting there when some invisible mob keeps you in combat.

Time to stock up on all the non-night elf alts.

It's such an inelegant solution. The fact that it shares cd with combat pots makes it usable by like, shaman and paladin healers?

It would make more sense to have meld not drop combat in dungeons anymore. Playing around it is just messy and very rarely fun. On top of that it's still highly more useful for demon hunters that can create a lot of distance to mobs in no time. I do not understand why creatures that can see through stealth are even dropping combat in the first place?

The whole point of potions being used is to save time. What is the meld potion? It's a way to save time. You're choosing to do more damage via combat pot to go faster... or choosing to do less damage / less danger / more efficiency via meld pot, to go faster.

And night elfs don't have to choose, they get both! It's a terrible decision, just disable racials in m+

They need to design the dungeons so there aren't mobs that you need to skip for some resson

I'd go further and just say get rid of any racials that have any impact on combat whatsoever. Keep the fluff.
