Besides, I don't expect new crafting gear before patch 3.4 if they keep a similar pattern to ARR, and when it comes, it's probably gonna be very slightly better than what we have, but will be cross class.
Yea, I was just checking, and I am allowed to meld a Tier V Savage Might or Tier V Quicktongue on my chest piece. So I can safely assume all Tier V can be melded there.
