Lets melee together:)

I mostly get the "4 melee, no damage" feature when I try melee fits. Working great on your side tho! GG !

I've run into a good number of times when that happens. Buffing melee to Nova Knife range (2.5m up from 1m) would be a decent bandaid for the bad hit detection.

HELLZ NO.

The hit detection is just as bad as anything else in this game.

I've come to terms with this a long time ago.

Additionally, DUST is no place for Dhalsim and his stretchy arms of death!

The Minmatar Commando dishes out an extra 334 damage above that of a Min Scout with knives. The melee user can simply keep taping the melee button whilst the nova knife user must gauge the timing on when the charge meter is filled. A melee user however, must be very mindful of their stamina gauge. Sprinting is key to closing the distance on melee attacks, however if you expend all your stamina by the time you reach a target you will not be able to use your melee. The player may however still use their weapon; however, general movement and melee attack speed are faster with either a sidearm or equipment active compared to a light weapon.

Both Complex Biotics and Proto Knives are already above the killing potential needed to kill a heavy suit in 1-2 hits. While the Min Commando has a profile sig between 55-49db and a much larger hitbox than the Min Scout, the Min Commando has mobility with the Myo Stims to jump around and tank decent dps from a single target while in a berserk charge. This is effective for taking on a heavy under reps as the repping player is without an equipped weapon. The Min Commando will die very quickly when faced against 2 or more opponents with hit scan weapons like the Assault Combat Riffle or Burst Assault Riffle. Players standing over repair hives are much better suited to engage a melee commando threat.

The melee-centric focus of the Min Commando is more costly and more fitting intensive that what is needed of a Min Scout or any other suit wielding Ishukone Nova Knives. Those fitting slots may be used by ehp mods or profile dampeners, increasing the likelihood of approaching a target for a kill.

Pls stahp

There's no put down delay on a Cloaking Device when using your fists.

So excited!

*wets pants*

Oh! and let me remind everyone that if you are standing on a tank and blow it up, you get glitched out a bit and can't see what is going on around you momentarilly. It looks like the map dissappears around you

The devs have brought it upon themselves.

Whoa! Should I just hand over my space keys?

Pro-tip, if you are intending to fist a tank in the butt for maximum damage--only do a couple thrust there. Explosive damage will pro.vide enough kick that you'll col.lapse dead on the spot.

Instead, finish your trusting on top of the vehicle. A vehicle destruction glitch will spawn you below the map upon destruction leaving you immune to splash damage. However, when the vehicle assets is finally removed after destruction (in several seconds) you will be spawned back to the zone where you destroyed the tank. Keep your wits about you when you return as you may encounter additional enemy engagements.

Vahzz, I thought you enjoy the serious spankings Zaria and I give. Seemed like you'd be welcome to experimentation.

So much for believing that people 20,000 years into the future could continue to manufacture war machines durable enough to withstand the rigors of combat.

This is why Dust continues to be absolutely pathetic when it comes to tank combat.

Reasons to believe Dust will ever have any significance to me as a game. 0. Now only remaining in New Eden for the sake of the two characters I created.

CCP Rattati is aware of the issue of melee damage not applying to vehicles.

I did advocate that he should look at making melee only apply to vehicle weak-points; however, he countered by discussing his experience with Warhammer 40k and says he intends to keep full vehicle body melee damage--and is looking into why it's currently buggy.
