DUST Search - How do we fix melee mods?

Increase the dmg?

Move them to the low?

Make them a high/low slot?

Reduce fitting cost?

Make them give you more stamina as well?

Get rid of them and boost everyone's melee dmg?

Edit:Sgt Kirk had the idea to boost jump height depending on suit.

Mauren Monn had a idea to have them boost speed by 3/4/5 percent, but I think that could be a problem if they remain in the high slot simply because of the speed glitch ing we had awhile back. Still a good suggestion though!

Sum1ne Else had the idea to make them 3x times stronger while giving them a 100 percent stacking penalty.

Edit again: Cat Merc had this to say about adding stamina regain

Melee is heavily reliant on stamina, and since you wasted it on sprinting to get close to the target, you don't have any stamina to actually melee the guy.

Pardon to interrupt!

Okay, while I do like Cat Man's approach because I do find myself having to throw on a Complex Cardio to make some of my melee based suits to work, I don't believe we should stop there because melee hit detection BLOWS. ABSOLUTELY and UTTERLY you can easily get the sound byte of your fist hiting the CLONES face but NO DAMAGE will me done. ESPECIALLY ON SCOUTS ( Do research on Calamari Scout Spacial-Rift Algorithym for info)

Cloaked scouts aren't as hurt by it since they can come close by being undetected, but any other suit trying to use melee needs that stamina.

NOT ONLY CLOAKED SCOUTS AS CLOAKS ARE NEARLY UNNESSESSARY TO SCOUTS SINCE THEIR PASSIVE DAMPENING AND PASSIVE SCAN CAN EASILY AIDE A SCOUT TO CHOOSE WHAT EVER BATTLE IT WANTS.

A 50% bonus to stamina regen (instead of 100/100 to amount and regen in normal stam mods) seems fair.

I'm thinking the reactive plating of biotics. Something that would boost stamina and speed. For example: STD: +10% stamina, +20% stamina regen, +3% sprint ADV: +20% stamina, +40% stamina regen, +5% sprint CPX: +50% stamina, +50% stamina regen, +7% sprint OR something that would increase base movement speed! STD: +2% movement speed ADV: +4% movement speed CPX: +6% movement speed
