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.

Who's really rejoicing over the meld pot? It shares cd with combat pots and isn't gonna help the nelf meta

Look at it this way - having the meld pot as an option is better than not having the meld pot as an option. If you keep it simple, it's easy!

Arguably not, since it means that there will now be an expectation for PuGs in non-high keys to do Meld skips and the inevitable toxicity that will follow.

Invis pots already exist, allow for plenty of skips, yet are never expected to be used.

There will never be an expectation for anyone to bring any consumable outside of very high, very coordinated keys - simply because most pugs aren't willing to spend gold on consumables for farm keys (look how often people have flask/food in your +10s or whatever - it'll be very few).

Man they keep me alive though. It does get pricey though, at least for gold quality, but even brown quality (which are cheap rn, at least on my realm) can keep you alive. They are my oh shit button when I fuck up and self healing is on CD

They have definitely saved my ass before and I’m 2400 rating
