It’s time to nerf Shadowmeld you cowards.

All they need to do is make it no longer drop combat. That is the largest issue is every aspect of the game.
The racial will still be S tier if it served as essentially a 1s damage immunity.
And dwarf racials as well.

Nah, you’re just not strong enough to beat us night elves 
.
No but seriously, Let’s not gamify everything for a game mode that represents a small portion of the playerbase. Nobody cares if you lose a duel or arena match.
It’s extremely situational, so if shadowmeld is literally the reason you’re failing at something, it’s probably a Skill issue

Yeah its been such a strong outlier for so long. I cant even get excited about the racial improvements because this is just so redic strong on rdruid.
You won’t mind then when they nerf it? It’s OP in M+ as well as pvp.
Almost 100% of healers use Nelf.
Nerf Shadowmeld.

it’s situational in the trivial content you do thus you won’t notice/shouldn’t care if it gets nerfed 
it is very not situational in pvp and basically mandatory for rdruids there let alone insane elsewhere
No - it’s situational in every scenario. And tbh, the only time i can see it being a legitimate complaint, is on some tournament realm like the MDI, where someone that wants to play as a Human Rogue wants shadowmeld.
Regarding PvP - you’re not listing any specifics, or any details…so i’m sorry but i’m going to say if you’re losing because of a situational 2 minute racial - it’s a skill issue on you.
If anything, PvP represents a VERY small portion of the community (even less than Raiding or M+), so to imply it’s trivial in everything except PvP, further strengthens my point that we shouldn’t ever balance around such an unpopular activity, nobody cares about.
Give examples, list some stats…I’ve used shadowmeld for years at multiple different levels of play - it’s situational. You aren’t using shadowmeld on cooldown for the same reasons as racials.
level 11 alt, one post (this thread)…
i smell bait…
no it’s not. next.
i already said specifically rdruid. hello? pay attention.
want some stats since you want to be willfully ignorant? 32% of all people above 2200 are nelf and they can’t even be paladin which is 15% of the ladder
100% of all druids are nelf. all druids. INCLUDING the dps.
- you have 0 resto druid experience
- you’re just crying on the forums because you lost to shadowmeld i guess? okay.
- whether it’s rogue or resto druid, it’s situational for the same exact reasons.
it can relieve an unfavorable situation like a wipe, or used as an escape. The situational use for Shadowmeld is entirely group/content dependant, and the only time I find myself really using it is:
- Wipe protection - an unfavorable group situation
- Getting a second rake stun off to interrupt or pad my dps.
you didn’t say anything. you just came on to the forums to cry about nothing, with no examples, and said ‘next’ without really even going into detail. anyone can be dismissive, but if you want to provide any feedback, you might want to make better quality posts, friend.
it’s also because night elf is one of the most popular races, and druid is one of the most popular classes since vanilla wow.
I guess class fantasy/personal preference play a part in that as well, don’t you think? you think every night elf druid picked night elf because of shadowmeld in duels or 3v3 arena?
/headdesk
i play a nelf. if you knew how to look people up, you’d know this
gonna mute you, i don’t think going back and forth with you contributing absolutely nothing to back your posts up is worth even 5 more seconds of my time.
it’s cool though, i hope you have fun in your arena matches…55% is really really good, but once they nerf shadowmeld, i can see you become a gladiator for sure.
good luck 
dont need luck. gladiator is freelo if you have hands lol

lies, is it really? thought it was really hard to get Glad in Shadowlands & DF?
they always get the best mounts…apparently all i need is shadowmeld and i’m there though…maybe we go for a push when they have a friggin T-rex mount in there!
Nerf Stoneform & Fireblood too, please. Remove the debuff removal. Stoneform would be a perfectly reasonable cooldown just with the reduced damage taken buff.
Or add “…and removes all poison, disease, curse, magic, and bleed effects” to every activated racial.
New Bag of Tricks: “Pull your chosen trick from the bag and use it on target enemy or ally, and remove all poison, disease, curse, magic, and bleed effects from yourself.”
etc.
This is not bait.
Shadowmeld has been OP for AGES! When the other racials were OP they were brought in line, but SM continues to be left alone by the devs.
The druid is making a disingenuous argument that it is “situational.”
Nearly every spec in Mythic + has Nelf at the top.
Nearly every spec in PvP has Nelf at the top.
Shadowmeld can be used to dodge and cheese incoming m+ and pvp attacks.
Shadowmeld can be used to vanish and drink mana in stealth.
Shadowmeld can be used to skip packs in M+
Shadowmeld can be used as an extra vanish on rogues and druids, completely making it mandatory for those spec unless you want to delibratly nerf yourself.
Shadowmeld can be used drop combat and fully res your party in M+
NERF SHADOWMELD ALREADY.
