Shadowmeld is now 100% useless to nelf hunters.
It now acts as a FD and is on a 3 minute cooldown.
Only time I ever used it was to guard pvp objectives and I now I can't even use it for that because of the rediculous 3 minute CD. Not only that but my cat pet's unique skill is also made useless.

Hence that change could be a very good one, but it needs a little tweaking.
What I would like to see is that shadowmeld works as it currently does when not in combat: stealth that breaks on movement and 10 second cooldown. Then while in combat works like a feign death with a 3 minute cooldown.
This I would agree with. If they can pull off getting the mechanics to work that is.

Who seriously needs to shadowmeld more than every 3 minutes? This is an incredible buff for nelves, I can't believe someone's actually complaining about being given a reagent-less vanish skill as a racial. Guess I should have expected it, really... Some people would bitch if they're tipped $100 and complain it wasn't more.
And why would prowl suddenly be useless? It hasn't been changed at all, if it worked fine before it'll work just as well now. Christ...
Let me guess. You never used SM before in guarding pvp objectives?
Here is a scenario: You are in WSG and its tied 2-2. You have been rushing the flag and killing stragglers in mid so you decide to defend the flag. *turn prowl on* *turn SM on* a mage with 500 hp suddenly takes the flag. What will you do? Kill him or stay in SM cause you just blew the 3 minute cooldown on it? With the 10 second cooldown you never had to make that decision.
THAT is why this is a nerf.
This is nothing like vanish either. We don't go into improved stealth state, we don't leave combat immediately, and last but not least WE CAN'T MOVE. Even if this was exactly like vanish except not being able to move IT WOULD BE USELESS.
This new SM is only useful for Nelf Priest wipe prevention. Other than that its bad. It was bad when humans had it, and its bad now. Fail of humanity > Shadowmeldlol

Another huge reason why I hate this change is that we STILL have the mockery that is wisp form. They decide to change a decent racial in SM but leave the 0 use wisp form alone.
I hate to use memes but this is a slap in the face.

I said it would be useless in context to being a vanish type skill. You never see a rogue vanish and stay still immediately after that. (Unless they are brain dead that is) Therefore new SM is useless if you want to use it as a vanish.
What I was getting at is that SM used to be purely PvP. (Except for the occasional AFK)
Now it is getting nerfed to all hell for pvp and made into a pve racial and that is not right at all.
I mentioned a nerf to nelf hunters because it literally has no use for use with this change. (After all we already have FD on a short cooldown we don't need another)
P.S
I wasn't exactly clear in my posts, no need to start throwing the "kids" insult around.

Dwarfs get expertise to maces. Hell yes, I love using maces.
Blizz is throwing a lot fo racials out of whack and it really is bothering me.
