Again, its pretty easy to know you’re against a nelf and combat that. I dont see the issue. So what if only they can do certain strats.
Blizzard nerf philosophy is usually if it’s overused (in this case, is the most overused strat and almost nothing else is as viable) then they nerf it.
In this case, Nelf Shadow Meld is overused, just take a look at MDI and AWC. Thats also the reason they nerfed the Orc passive racial too, it was 20% stun reduction and now it’s 10%.

lol.
lmao, even.
Turn off War Mode or queue for another follower dungeon like your buddies.
Man, I swear, it’s always the ones who play a female Night Elf druid who are always the most toxic/annoying players. 
It’s like there’s a trend.
God forbid theyre also a hunter. FD works same way.

Do you honestly what everyone to believe that the WOF is bad?
We weren’t comparing Wof to dwarf racials so nice attempt at a gaslight.
Yes you are upest because you like being horde over Alliance and feel slighted anytime you preserve that Alliance is receiving an advantage or “special” treatment.
You can’t use dwarf racial in cc so the only actual cc it would be able to cleanse is priest silence, which would then result in immediately eating vampiric touch cc.

I’m talking about one outlier. I’m not saying that “Alliance are receiving Blizzards favor!” I’m saying that one racial, Shadow Meld, is an outlier and follows the nerf philosophy that Blizzard nerfs by, the same way they nerfed Blood Elf racial.
You’re then over here acting like I’m leaving the Alliance out by saying “uH AcKtUaLlY they nerfed Human racial before 
.” acting as if they didn’t even the playing field before that by nerfing Undead racial.
I don’t think Blizzard is giving you guys special treatment. All I’m saying is, there’s one outlier that should probably be nerfed.
Ah didn’t know that. Still a nice racial though! Must be helpful for those sin rogues.
They could just nerf it in instances like that if it was really that big of an issue. I am actually quite surprised they did not do it already.

I play both human and Belf and of course I was a little frustrated when they nerfed them. But I’m not the one here complaining over spilled milk and saying that other racials should get the same treatment.
That’s exactly what you did when entered this conversation saying mah belf racial was nerfed to oblivion so they should do the same to shadowmeld.
Yes you do.
I’m not specifically saying Night Elf should get nerfed just because the Blood Elf racial did. I’m using Blood Elf racial as a comparison of a similar instance they nerfed a racial following their nerf philosophy.
I’m saying it should get nerfed because it’s an outlier. Most people play night elf because of the racial. It’s a very strong racial.
Read above. Only using as a comparison. If Night Elf racial were nerfed first and people were complaining about Blood Elf racial I’d be saying the exact thing I’m saying now even though I don’t play Night Elf. I’d be saying “Yeah, they should follow the same nerf philosophy honestly. If people are mostly playing Belf because of the racial maybe it’s time for a nerf”
Yeah, the most represented race for arenas and mythic+ in Dragonflight was Night Elf lol. By a long shot too. Can’t really tell right now in TWW because it’s too early, M+ hasn’t started but nothing has changed really, so I expect it to stay the same. Arena is still night elf.
every horde racial was nerfed, every alliance racial was buffed. thems the breaks lads.
I hope they un nerf the goblin rocket jump someday because as it is right now, you’re traveling less distance and giving yourself a global cooldown than just simply walking.

Ayo they nerfed rocket jump? When did they do that
Yeah you can’t slowfall with rocket jump and you are immune to slow falling effects for something like 10 seconds after using it. It’s killed me a few times.

Blizz forgets that they make instances for everything and could easily balance within those.
Something too strong in a raid? Nerf it across the board. etc.
I dont think smeld is that broken tho.
Than what exactly is your goal posting? To let everyone know the belf racial got gimped?
I’ve played this game a long time and not once was like that flipping racial is the only reason that guy won the fight and than run to the forums asking daddy blizzard to nerf them. I think it’s ridiculous to demand a nerf to any racials to begin with.
I still don’t understand removing diplomacy from humans. Guess it was just to op to be liked by everyone.
Are you that dense. Read the original response and see what I was responding to. I was using it as an example at first.
I can accept that the blood elf racial has been nerfed. It’s been several expansions, I still continued to play a Blood Elf Priest (don’t play my priest anymore because Discipline got a bit boring to me)
The original response was that the reason Blood Elf racial got nerfed was because of its overuse in M+ and to a lesser extent arenas. It got nerfed because it was overused and Blood Elf was becoming the most represented race in the game.
You don’t see that as a problem? If one race is becoming the most represented, not because of aesthetics mind you, but because it has a strong racial, you don’t see that as a problem? When the most optimal race to play becomes a Blood Elf or a Night Elf because their racials are that strong, it’s not a problem in your eyes?
You’re dense if you can’t see that man. I highly encourage you to look at the leaderboards for most represented race in both arena and mythic+.
The OP is being a bit ridiculous in his thread I agree, complaining about a specific niche like Shadow Meld Flight Form is the least of the racials problems.
Asking for a nerf for this one scenario is ridiculous yes, but asking for a nerf in general because the racial is overused for being too powerful? That’s fine.
Nope.
No not really but I also play both sides and could care less about min maxing a character.
I don’t see it as a problem. Nerfing racials because it gives a small amount of an advantage in pve or in pvp is dumb imo and isn’t what the majority of the player base is using to decide what race their going to play.
Human and Night elf were the top played races in vanilla Wow and than it became Human, Blood elf and Night Elf and I haven’t looked at the numbers in a minute but I can almost guarantee Blood elf and human are still the top played races.
