affropiaf Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 top tier is skana with 0.33 attack speed ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)YoungGunn82 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) Considering block is going to be automatic now, it's safe to say Silva and Aegis Prime will probably be the new meta with it's 90% DR. Followed by daggers with CL, because stinging thorn will be much easier to pull off with the melee rework. Then probably gun blades and glaives, because being able to switch to melee instantly. And last anything with reach. Edited February 17, 2019 by (XB1)RDeschain82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Pumba_Beneator Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Before Melee 3.0, I'd go for a good spin-to-win infested zaw, redeemer prime, daguer with CL, heavy blade (gram p, galatine p, dokhram zaw)... After Melee 3.0, I have no idea 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzureScion Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I really like the redeemer prime but it's just not doing that great without Bullet Dance, Voltaic Strike, and Condition overload. I tried every other build but it seems lackluster. Redeemer Prime is out of the option to me. However here's my top 5 favorite: 1. Maiming Lecta (hey abuse it before they fix it amirite) 2. Gram Prime with mad attack speed boosted with my Eternal War Valkyr 3. CL Rakta Dagger, combined with Fatal Teleport this destroys everything 4. Orthos Prime/Guandao, I'm a big fan of spears and polearms since forever, also capable of maiming builds although not as great as whips 5. This might be not as effective but I enjoy using Nikanas with Decisive Judgement. Very satisfying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AoN-CanoLathra- Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Redeemer Prime with 100% status chance and Condition Overload is absolutely busted. Other than that, it's mostly the normal contenders. Atterax, Heavy Blade Zaw, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This list is not on particular order: 1. Any maiming strike whips like lecta or aterax 2. Gram Prime 3. Paracecis 4. Zaw (personal favorite) 5.

jfhsanseiIII Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I’ll have to wait until melee update comes out before I can honestly say with any confidence. Instead I’ll give you ones I enjoy Jat Kittag - with Vulcan blitz (kaboom) glaive prime - krull was an awesome movie oh and guns with flying knives. Zenistar - everything goes everywhere and it’s on fire. Dark Split-Sword - it’s secretly pretty awesome. Obex - with berserker. Who really wants to know what they’re doing anyway? some of those are top tier. Some not. You probably already know which ones are(n’t). Melee is making a big change soon, but there’re soooo many interesting melee weapons. It’ll be fun to revisit most of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Mono-Pop Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 A zaw riven on a matching stick, condition overload and maiming strike. Put that and Saryn and tada you solo’d Arbitration tada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaotyke Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I would wait for the melee overhaul before asking the question that effects the whole year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan of the weapon class, though I wouldn't be against making them a slower but harder hitting alternative, like Hammers but just a teeny bit quicker.

Gurpgork Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 If we’re ignoring Zaws (because they beat pretty much everything)... 1) Redeemer Prime 2) Memeing Strike whips 3) Gram Prime 4) Lesion 5) Arca Titron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThumpumGood Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 The ones that will fit best with melee 3.0 I wouldnt get too much into maxing out your melees until that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBaw Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I like Silva n Aegis Prime, or pretty much all sword n board weapons are nice Lesion, cuz its still one of the best weapons in game, I think my no forma build is still insane dps. Ninkondi cuz I'ma ninja! And they're actually kinda awesome. Hirudo cuz they're also awesome, no switching for heals! Cerata cuz its my go to glaive, even though I wish glaives where less clunky. Long reaching melee swish swish weapons are nice and all, but they're stupid. DE shouldn't have allowed that to happen. Its literally taken so much away from the game and the use of like 80% of the melee weapons out there has gone to nothing because they don't fit the max range swish swish bill. Honorable mention - the Rakta Dark Dagger ❤️ Its got some neat gimicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
