How To Improve Melee And Make It Viable[Suggestion]

[W4RM4CHIN3]

Basically what kills melee for me is that enemies spread and most of this game is about long range. Melee is a nice mechanic but it doesn't compare to long range artillery. My idea was to have charge attacks have shockwaves. The longer the charge the bigger the shockwave. The max range should be around 25m and should deal 50% damage from the charge for the first 15m then 25% till it reaches 25m. This would help heavy melee because by the time you end charging someone already killed your target...

 

The best art you will ever see in your life...

 

Thoughts?

 

 

Edit: don't make this a mod, should be default.

use ash and teleport

Except that the problem with melee at the minute isn't it's lack of range, but rather it's damage against lv100+ enemies.

this would be ok, however, it would be giving every charecter the ability to basically use banshees first ability all the time with no cost other than charge time

u are correct it takes skill to use melee weopons correctly and not to try and ad a skill to a melee weopon

Nah i dont really like the idea, melee is melee, not a range weapon, the only problem melee has is not doing any damage above level 80-90

make melee viable at all levels, that's it. No stupid charge attack shockwave things.
