Silly question. but is this used before you start battle, then it revives the party? or does one come back to life, then use this to mass res everyone?

Comentario de RexHcy

Can this be used in M+?

Comentario de Brit

Am I mistaken or is this usable by non-engineers?

Comentario de Zurkmeister

One time use only and disappears from your bag after use, if you have more than one they will show the 5 minute cooldown.
Tried it while not in a raid/group and it spawned, said a line ("finalizing revitalization") then fell apart.

Comentario de JollyDragoness

Experimented with this a bit and it isn't great. You have to pop the bot while in combat BEFORE you die if you want to get any use out of it. You can put it down before combat or right as you enter but it casts quick so you pretty much have to die immediately entering combat. It has a cast time so you have to time it right when placing during combat or you just wont summon it. The worst part, though? The bot is able to be aggroed. It can die before getting off the rez. This is practically unusable as is and it doesn't work in dungeons or raids. The entire point of an item like this is to use it in a dungeon or raid. The Irresistible Red Button doesn't work anymore either, so now engineers have nothing.

I had hoped Blizzard would finally give engineers a profitable item, but nope. Maybe someday...

Adding some notes and confirming some of what others have said from my own testing as well.

How does it work?

Who/When: M3DDY can be used by any class and regardless of profession, and it can be purchased on the Auction House. This item can be used in combat or out of combat. You cannot use this while dead (the tooltip seemed misleading to me).
What's the item do? Using the item summons Meddy, and the item is consumed on use. Using the item itself is a full 5 second cast to summon the bot. The cooldown of 5 minutes isn't shared with similar items.
What's the summoned NPC do? When out of combat, Meddy will cast Medicalizar (which is also 5 second cast time), which is a mass rez (similar to what D.O.G.O from the Botón rojo irresistible casts). My combat log indicates that the NPC Meddy casts the spell, but his spell ID M3DDY does the resurrection as the rez completes. The rez target gains the same spell ID M3DDY as a buff (unknown if it has any other effect). Similar to D.O.G.G.O.'s Invocar arrumacos en masa, this is a low-HP rez.
Tragedy strikes: After he completes the rez, Meddy will die. It is an apparent explosion, but in my tests it didn't do any actual damage. However, it is possible this is random and he'll surprise your friends.

Notes on in/out of combat:

In Combat: If you summon Meddy while you are in combat, he will not cast until combat ends.
Out of Combat: If you summon Meddy out of combat, he'll begin casting shortly after (even if he was never in combat).
Out then In Combat: If Meddy starts casting, it isn't interrupted by you getting into combat (he will complete the cast).

This is not the use model of the Irresistible Red Button, which required pre-combat setup and then post-summon in-combat activation.

Edit (New): Notes post-season launch:

From my testing and others' notes, this item cannot be used in raids or M+. This dramatically reduces the expected usefulness and comparisons to prior expansion items - possibly it is a bug?
While the tooltip on the Irresistible Red Button doesn't show it, the doesn't work in current Midnight content, either. The D.O.G.G.O. will cast rez, but it doesn't have an effect (so likely the spell cast is level-limited in impact, but the item is not.

Engineers no longer have a mass recovery option for competitive PvE content, pushing reliance back on traditional means (soulstones, end-of-fight battle rez, etc.)

Edit (Updated): Use Cases:

You were not prepared: For the times you forgot to preemptively put down the Irresistible Red Button (or don't have wipe recovery), you can still save the day by summoning Meddy during combat (and he'll rez you afterward). This feels like is an evolution of the button / failure pylon approach where you don't need to plan the button ahead, you just need to be cool-headed in the moment and drop Meddy instead.
Speedy recovery for non-healers: A mass rez for any class (warlock soulstoned the wrong person, or a hunter survived by feigning, someone successfully shadowmelded, or a rogue sneaked back through to where you wiped and skipped the trash, etc.) - this is a quick wipe recovery for any of them. No more reliance on crossing fingers for the old jumper cables or equivalents.
Efficiency: For mobile death runs to skip raid trash (or maybe in keys?)

Other than use cases where there is an advantage to having a free rez moments after a pull, you probably don't want to summon pre-pull.

~~Might not be a bad idea to keep a few handy, especially for non-healers~~, like having Tambores tocados por el Vacío around just in case.

Two things to note about

POINT 1: is a fricking awesome way to power thru levelling Engineering.
As of this date the mats are cheap as chips:
x1
x1
x1

(Make these personally for what comes next if you so choose. They are prolly cheaper on AH at 9,000g +/-)

I've levelled Engineering on 3 toons at this point doing it differently in each case.

Hit 30 Engineering skill in the normal way - you are spoiled for choices.
At around 30 points choose your first Specialisation: "Bits and Bots" > "Bots".
is unlocked immediately.

is 3 arrows/chevrons (I dunno how else to word it, there is no standard vocabulary for this).
I went from 30 to 70 in skill making before it dropped to 2 arrows/chevrons.

Given the relative inexpensiveness of the parts I would recommend pushing on to 75 (8 more builds for me).
At which point turns 1 arrow/chevron.

Thats approx 12,000g for 45 points. Bargin at half the price!

===========================================================================================

POINT 2: Just quickly, I've noticed ppl arguing 's use in M+.
It is irrelevant if it can be used or not or how it works.

In LOW M+ time penalty to player-death isn't a thing, the bar is soo low to timing keys it prolly wont come up.
Res out of combat or wait to be res'd.
It is a misconception you should instantly release and run back to get back in the fight, particularly if the pull is almost done.
Or if you are not close to a ressurection check-point.

In HIGH M+ Dont die! Simple. This is your principle thought. Ofc manage death when it happens in the normal way.
Going in armed with thinking you have the gift of life eternal detracts from the PUNISHING PENALTY of dying in a Challange where yer skill is tested in NOT dying.

Eitherway you'll be armed with 45 's ...ready to go!

As of the current patch, M3DDY does not work in instanced content, despite the tooltip implying otherwise. This means that its use-case is extremely limited and that it would only see theoretical use against world bosses.
This is a change from previous expansions, in which items such as Botón rojo irresistible worked perfectly in raid instances in order to quickly recover from wipes.
My understanding is that it was nerfed shortly after the release of Midnight due to its potential use as a death skip in Mythic+ and that it was quickly and crudely hotfixed.

This being said, M3DDY is a good representation of the current state of Engineering, in which Blizzard has largely cut out most of its utility. Perhaps this was done out of fear that Engineering would become too 'meta' of a profession.
However, without anything substantial to replace this, I think most Engineers would agree that the profession is largely a hollow shell of its former self.

Comentario de dlbert2000

We're now in the second tier of the expac and this still does not work in raids despite saying it brings your raid back to life

Comentario de xLunacyx

Incredibly odd to make a post-wipe resurrecting item (as an alternative to soulstone on a healer) not usable in raids.
