In DUST side arm, light, and heavy weapons are actually just classified by there CPU/PG usage. Knives consume the least amount of CPU and therefore are placed in the Side arm category.
I've yet to go beyond standard knives as I actually use them as a secondary or to defend against heavies(primary is a breach SMG). Because of this, it takes a full charged combo to the back of the head to actually kill someone or, in the case of heavies, wreck there shields.
As you can probably tell by my weapon selection, i'm a scout and I focus on field management (uplinks, hacking, destroying equipment) so I'm actually always at a disadvantage. You saying that with my gimped combat abilities I shouldn't be able to kill somebody that is hacking my objective?
As for the OHK, you have to keep in mind that;
- he has to get within striking distance.
- he has to charge up which disables his ability to sprint.
- he has to time the release so that both strikes hit you as you are strafing, jumping, sprinting, etc.
- he has to avoid your grenades, bullets, etc.
- he has to avoid your allies grenades, bullets, etc.
- he has to not get ran over.
With all this pre-planning needing to be done in less then a second, do you really feel that they should have to perform 2 and 3 twice in order to kill you? If so then you are just sad bro.

Minmatar scout lv5 - 25% increase to melee dmg
Complex Myofibril - 50% increace to melee damage
Nova Knife Proficiency lv5 - 15% increase to nova knife dmg.
so just with those 3 that's already 90% increase.
Minmatar pro scout suit can fit 3 myofibril......
MASSIVE damage when charged.
I was pointing out the difficulty in landing the hits.... you pointed out the time that is to be consumed to make the hits matter (very valid)
When using light armor for any role; Sniper, ninja, shotgunner, etc. One must shift there original state of mind to fit the role. Failure to do so will result in you being a waste of space on the battlefield as well as a waste of your own ISK, SP, and Time.
Most people think it's all about "hack the objective" or "get kills" but as any logi will tell you, that's not always true.
A good sniper can lock down an objective without getting a single kill, Shotgunners and ninja destroy any plans the enemy has leaving them at a tactical advantage as they now will be too busy looking behind them in fear of your wrath then looking in front of them at the heavy with the forge gun!
Field managers give your team a tactical advantage by utilizing uplinks to give the team a tactical spawn, hacking the objective and any useful instillations, and wiping out the enemy's equipment putting them at a disadvantage. Doing this I managed to keep the enemy surrounded while also keeping objectives in our control.
This game thrives on players using tactics and if someone you are going against is good at what they do then you're going to have a bad time, period!
