Melee - Being Able To Attack Enemies In The Air

[Xievie]

I just want SOME WAY to attack aerial enemies with my melee weapon. Jump attacks do pathetic damage to them unless you can actually land a direct hit. I'm sick of having to switch weapons for this. No, I'm not going to switch to using the Glaive just for aerial enemies - might as well go full gun if that's the case.

 

Speaking of the glaive, I thought it would be pretty sick to be able throw it mid-air somehow. Would have helped me out a lot before while I leveled it.

They need to improve the ability of melee to hit things above or below you.  It is pretty annoying to not be able to hit a flyer at head level or an enemy that's a step down the stairs.  If I've got my crosshairs aimed up at an angle, that's the way the melee attacks should be checking for hitting detection (even if the animation is the same as it is now), and the same deal with down.

 

It would also be nice if we could swing in the air with a tap of E and the ground slam required holding E down.
