Shadow Meld Question

Just got this stance at lvl 25, thought it was at 30 but anyways, I'm having trouble finding a role for it. I have seen posts on it in the past and for the most part ignored them as i didnt have meld at the time. (mistake) So I asked some high lvl dread knights on my server. Several infact. NONE of them used meld. So what is it about this stance? What role is it sopposed to fill?

I dont see it as a tanking stance because steady mitigation and hate seem far better than streaky blocking and no hate.

In a grp situation where i'm not tanking Dps seems to be my role and thus Ebon blade fits this nicely.

Solo Also looking for dps, again Ebon blade.

The resistances it offers are too minor to be of concenquence.

There is the option of stance dancing....but i prefer to avoid "twitch" gaming.

So far I've noticed using this stance when soloing 3 dots my health stays a bit more consistant but not so much it warrents giving up ebon blade. (Just have to lifetap a bit more)

So what is the intention behind this stance? Does anyone really use it? The ones I spoke to were nice enough to answer my questions but when i started asking details....they all admitted they dont actually use it.
