Stabbing people.
Attempting to stab people while getting shot. |

They don't require a stupid reload. My victims can confirm that for me as they struggled to reload while trying to dodge me in a close quarter 1v1 confrontation while I sprint literally under their gun. Can you do a regular melee with nova knives? If not, it wouldn't be too hard to just melee NKers to death. |

Wonder how many bullets welcomed his face before he got his first kill lol Even using all proto gear, and more than likely fighting mostly standard/militia users. And getting killed by them. |

When we can start customizing weapons, we need to be able to ad a nova bayonette. |

I've found their advantage! They have the lowest PG/CPU usage (per tier) of any weapons.
Most scouts have fitting issues, and nova knives can help give them that extra CPU/PG boost they need for another profile dampener or kinetic catylizer (which will then make the knives more effective) |

Well... DUH!!! For general gameplay where you just want to pick up a weapon and kill people without putting much thought into it, of course the Nova Knife is useless. But this is a special weapon that is not tailored for general gameplay is it? It's a weapon for pros. Scrubs or Blueberries need not even touch it. Scrubs are not even worthy of looking at it. Think of it as the Law Giver from Judge Dread: can only be used by a Judge.
That's terrible logic. Better logic: it's more or less a sidearm shotgun. What sidearm outperforms a non-sidearm at the non-sidearm's job? |

Whoever tried sneaking up on me when I was giving overwatch wasn't, but I doubt it was you. Just saw a red dot show up behind me, and I was sprinting down the mountain before they could hit me.
I'm pretty sure it wasn't a scout however, since someone told me a heavy was heading my way and I heard forge shots hitting behind me on my way to cover. |

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a scout however, since someone told me a heavy was heading my way and I heard forge shots hitting behind me on my way to cover. Definitely wasn't me. I never use a heavy suit. If it was me, I would've chased you down all the way into the red zone if I had to. And considering I can sprint two football fields in 20 seconds, you would not live. That's why i figured it wasn't you A. not a scout B. showed up on radar
Now if someone told me they saw a scout heading my way, I would have probably moved without even bothering to watch my radar first like I did in that situation. |

I remember Maken Tosch once saying hitting in the back deals more damage- it seems to be the case with regular melee too. I hit a sniper (at full health) in the back with a shotgun (hand to hand combat level I), and it OHKed them. |

Also, they must have changed something, because you can do regular melee attacks with nova knives now. Got a good deal of kills with standard ones . Even charge-stabbed one red, and immediately OHKed the other with a regular stab. |
