FYI Minjas have been using proto knives to OHK untanked heavies for a very long time now.
We are just able to take on the tanked heavies too, if they let us get that close.
This is how a minja feels

If its good enough for a squad to wipe the floor with it using nothing but it. I think it might need looked at. I am not QQing or whatever that means. Just saying this is up there on wtf moments when it hits you. Only if they get within 2.5 meters, and you are not constantly moving and checking your back(haven't played to see how aim adhesion works yet, though range could play a part too).
Minjas have always been able to OHK Medium frames. I did that plenty of times, and I usually run ADV knives.
You are just seeing more knifers out there because of its AV uses. Anytime you see an increase in the use of a weapon, you are going to die from it more.

I personally think they need to do more damage so that they one shot any heavy at prof 5 on a minja I think they are good. If you aren't OHKing with a charged proto knife, you need to add damage mods or something.

Now that they do vehicle damage, many more people are using them, right at the time they get range and adhesion.
Suddenly, people are noticing more deaths, so it must be OP, it couldn't possibly the increase in knifer numbers!!

Thats what I see 90% of them use nova knives and a cloak. plus with the new swing speed its not out of the question to take a whole squad if they are even slightly not seeing in every direction at once. the mins speed sees to that. doesn't take it but a fraction of a second to close the gap from squad member to member. We all know speed and stealth trump Ehp every time if given a OhKo weapon. Then why weren't you complaining before?
Knives got a 0.5 m range increase.
0.5!!!!!
They are not that much lethal than they used to be. Especially proto knives, which saw no damage increase.
I tell you what I do see though. People on the forums posting about using knives that rarely, if ever, used them before.
