Is There A Way Not To Use A Stance When Having Only Melee?

[Rejutka_Lupex]

I just did a "melee only" sortie, exterminate, thinking it'd be fun to mash those first-tier enemies.

 

To my horror I realized that the stance/melee fight/whatever-you-call-it is always on, crippling my movement speed.

 

I NEVER intentionally use that, the only reason I even have a stance mod equipped is for the points.

 

So, is there a way to get rid of this when having only melee equipped? I want to button-mash for melee, not try to do some button-juggling or stop every third move.

Unequip the stance?

 

There's no way to quick melee while it's equipped, so if there's something inherently different between equipped attacking and quick melee even without a stance you're stuck with it.

Yes. Take the stance mod off.

 

Forma your weapon once or twice and you'll have enough points to do so without crippling your build.

 

Edit: Wait a minute. On second thought, equip your scanner. That will make you quick melee like you want.

Other than unequip the stance mod no you cant, if you are worried about speed best if you equip a very fast melee weapon, like the Tipedo or the Dual Ichor.

Equip a codex scanner.

As was already said above, scanner is your choice.

Don't all stances have a mash E combo? If you actually have speed mods on it, it shouldn't be significantly slower...

i've noticed for the last couple updates my melees seem to use the stance "powers" when i quick melee as i watch the victim disintegrate and float away like i had my melee weapon equipped and was using it when that was not the case. i can be happily shooting things and just hit "e" to chop someone in half and it activates. it needs to be looked into.

That's probably your elemental build. Is it blast? Blast does that on kill.

Equip a codex scanner.

what does that have to do with melee? I have the same problem as the OP

Equipping your codex scanner allows you to quick melee even if you only have a melee weapon.

 Equipping the scanner acts as though you are holding a rifle/pistol so you can quick melee but you cannot block or channel or do melee combos.

Okay, thanks got it

[TennoSimons]

I like the scanner idea.

Didn't know that. Will try, thanks.
