Darkstar2610 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) My opinion is that almost all the melee weapons are under powered. especially the heavy weapons i mean the top base damage is only 50. In my opinion it should be at least 2x as much. I mean it's a melee wepon you're up close and personal and hitting with all your power it should be alot more damaging This is my opinion What do you think. Is it to low?, or is it just the way you want it to be?. Please post your opinion Edited June 22, 2013 by Darkstar2610 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaboinglefop Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I tear things apart with the orthos... Heavy weapons are insane. Max reflex coil/killing blow/reach and you just cleave groups of things in half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean the charge dmg i mean the base dmg but i also think the charge dmg is to low once you get to fight lvl 60 or higer enemies the melee weapons just get inefficient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhoyzu Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 i would like to see stronger melee weapons seeing as that what i prefer to use and there should be an alternative to gun play. thats viable at the higher levels as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razor831 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I see, for most weapons, the normal melee attacks are more for filler and utility than actual damage. Charging takes more skill to use properly than just flailing wildly, so I think it SHOULD be rewarded with greater effectiveness in most cases. Slide attacks with some weapons are incredibly powerful as well. There ARE weapons whose normal attacks are incredibly effective though...the Fragor, Orthos, and Fang come to mind. Orthose with Fury and Pressure Point absolutely SHREDS Infested, and Fang hits so stupid fast that you'll just stunlock everything to death, even if they're NOT resistant to the damage...and Grineer just get demolished.

Orthos is my absolutte fav but when i fight a high lvl enemy it just feals useless so does it's charge attack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasmir Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Preassure points sucks big time thats why weapons like fangs are outclassed by everything with over 150 charge damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyris Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Melee will always be underpowered just by the fact your bringing a knife to a fully automatic firing gun fight, it just doesn't work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their motto is ''Ninjas play free'' and ninja's don't use guns (I don't have anything against guns by the way) so i think that the melee weapons should have a lagre role in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max reflex coil/killing blow/reach and you just cleave groups of things in half. thats the best charge heavy in the game it hits all the way around has a huge range and the best dps we are talking about the other ones that are geting more and more outdated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
