With all the dots that ticking in you takes 1 idea more than warstomping into cyclone.
I think you didnât know that but⌠If you use Shadowmeld after a Maledict has been activated, even if you get popped out of stealth before it actually hits it wonât hit you. In other words using Shadowmeld after Maledict has been activated negates the hit no matter when you meld and how long it lasts.
Thatâs why itâs super easy. See Maledict press meld and Maledict loses its target. Melding other stuff is more difficult, but Maledict is automatically negated if you press the racial.
Zero thoughts needed.
itâs an outplay to meld maledict
meld is not usable in stun
generally it shouldnât happen because enemy can secure the maledict
only if your enemy is super retarded
You should know that Maledict on its own is useless as it gets dispelled. What is super good is chaining Maledicts. So lets say you stun a target and burst it down, Maledict right before end of stun to avoid a meld BUT donât use second Maledict right away (because if you donât wait for the dispel a smart healer will wait and dispel both) then the first Maledict will get dispelled and you wonât be able to prevent the meld of the second one unless you happen to be playing with a sub rogue who can restun two times, long enough for a second maledict to land, but then you need to break the stun combo between the first stun and the restuns, leaving the target free to use defensives. Maledict being on the gcd your only other way to land 100% the second one after dispel on a nelf is to have a second stun on your team, usable instantly, and not by the guy who still have Maledict. Which means, only specific comps can do that and against zll the rest nelfs are guaranteed to avoid one maledict if there is a chain of maledict and if they have more than 1 IQ.
I mean this is pure bs. You maledict around the end of the stun, gets dispelled then team mate maledicts and they can then meld that.
He often says pure bs for the sake of contradicting others.
Your partner maledicts, you kidney instantly, then enemy healer dispels a maledict and then you maledict 1.5 sec before kidney ends.
That guarantees you at least 4.5 seconds of uptime on maledict.
The issue isnât shadowmeld, the issue is rdruid with feral affinityâŚ

And that the enemy healer isnât in CC.
disgustingly should be a banned word on this forum section
I believe some of you have the memeory of an ant. What abou Belf silence why did they nerf that into oblivion? Itâs on the gcd and just purges iâd take the silence back every day of the year.
But no ,complaining about shadowmeld isnât ok but complaining about Belf silence was? Hyprocrisy at itâs finest.
Hurr durr imagine crying about an ability thatâs been in the game for 15 years. are you insane for thinking that its a gamebreaking mechanic?. LOL i am playing the race that got a racial CHANGED COMPLETLY not just a nerf to it like EFMH(altough itâs a big one) literally changed the functionality. The reason i made a belf was to play prot pally with the belf silence but guess for all the people defending this stupid racial canât recall back to the end of legion where belf racial was a silence as it was suppose to be.
Situation is different. Belf racial is still usefull espesially vs hpalas.
We had big problem with belf racial in legion not only in rated pvp but also in m+. 2x melee could stop enemy from casting for too long with 2x arcane torrent + healer could play belf too making this traits gamebreaking.
About m+, everyone know how important interupts are and aoe interupt was overpowered
Exactly the point the situation is NOT DIFFERENT. Shadowmeld is not usefull just again druids or w/e itâs usefull against anyone.
Also M+ would you want me to link you what composition the guys run right now? Yeah 5 nelfs if possible because shadow meld.Itâs pretty much deja vu
But the situation is that Shadow meld is not changed yet and i cannot see why itâs exactly the same situaton as in legion OP in pvp OP in M + unfair as fck for everyone that doesnât play nelf. Stop saying sahdowmeld isnât stop protecting it itâs exactly the same if you advocate for how fair it is you should advocate to bring belf silence back.
Stop lie man⌠People who push m+ at highest level play in horde, not alliance because of better traits. If you were true there would be only alliance players in top. Also i just checked raider. io rankings and again not everyone play night elf, mostly druids and demon hunter for obvious reason.
You can never compare how broken belf silence was to was is shadowmeld now. Belf silence was without questions most broken racial that ever existed in game.
Do you want to know secret why most druids play nught elf? This is the only decent looking race in alliance for druids and there is no reason to pick worgen or kul tiran because this races racials are usuless, rly usuless.
Also most players play wow since very long time so they created their chars before release of worgens or feral affinity that some people were crying about.
The whole thing about shadowmeld maledict is not about racial but about maledict - trinket that should never exist
yes lets make every ability useless until we have like 5 good abilities. lets play league of legends in arena. fu*kin idiots. meld is just strong right now because of drink and maledict meta, better change the meta instead of one of the last nice skillfull abilities. They even nerfed shadowmeld a few xpacs ago. you could meld fears and sh it back in wotlk which was awesome if you were good.
I dont have a nightelf anymore and i am against nerfing it. To be honest warstomp won me pretty often the game.
You clearly are out of the loop with mythc + . Check the MDI not the rankings the reason they are horde is because of the horde being populated and nobody is chaning back to alliance for the shadowmeld alone if the population is on horde. Again check the mdi where they are allowed to choose race and gear and every single one is going nelf but i guessed since you brought up m+ you had an ounce of information on what is top tier and what not guess not.
Shadow meld is broken op itâs the same as belf for obvious reasons.
Edit : The guy that makes the weekly run downs of m+ or used to do said so many times he would like to play alliance but too many people are horde for them to change on live so they just play horde . But in tournament always shadowmeld itâs that f**king good with reaping.
In this MDI all players were nelfs bc of the reapping, to skip it, wonât happen the same on 8.2 m+ meta since the +10 affix will change and probably nelf wonât allow you to skip that mechanic. In PvP itâs an useful racial, together with some others (war stomp, belf is still decent against some classes, orc, shamanâŚ)
I donât think the racial should be changed, maybe just make an small hotfix that to restealth as druid or rogue after using meld you must get out of it, so this way itâs still a counterplay for maledicts and some stuff, but not an absolute combat reset for some classes that really get high advantage from stealth.
Maybe they should fix their poor coding and not destroying every single racial which is in-game since dawn of time
Shadowmeld is not even close being as broken as be silence

Please enlighten me how broken BE silence was,in WOD horde was pretty much dirt crap and be silence was exactly the same somehow in Legion BE silence became OP without any modifications to it the only thing that happened was EFMH was balanced (i understand that now EMFH got broken but we are talking about legion when it was balanced not blatently op).
