You make it sound like Ranged players don't have to worry about other ranged players like melee has to. Also...it's really REALLY easy to get into melee range. That...compared to the 95%+ slaughter rate against ranged players a melee unit will have. But hey, we already designed all the maps, game mechanics, capture points, and everything else around making sure melee is always viable, may as well just go all the way and call this a melee lobby game with some shooting. PS: You think it's hard to get into melee range? Try staying out of melee range with a ranged character on LSM, while still being an active part of the fight and not just skirting the battle and picking up pity kills. Bonus points if you can do it without mentioning the ONE OP weapon LSM have that is ranged (cause even I think the PC is bullshit).
I play 80% melee, 15% vehicle and 5% ranged. I prefer close range fights. First i just pressed normal attacks, later dodge, finaly learned the block. If i play ranged i should lose in melee but in 50% i win because i know how to counter. I can beat a power claw with a knife but of course its hard and you cant make a misstake but you have ranged pewpew.
considering all the game modes require cap points, where melee classes spam in a wild fury, crossing their fingers they hit an enemy, with no negative on hitting friends, there are glaring problems with melee as has been said from before launch. Numbers speak for themselves.
Its about to get even more over the top when the PC nerf comes and more melee mods are introduced. Also just got a unique chaos chain axe that gives 40% life steal. Sure its MoK locked but who the hell needs external healing with that shit?! Ranged is gonna get more and more obsolete if they carry on this way.
Dont you feel that life steal mod dont work at all after last update? I dont see any healing effect in combat last days.... i use power sword mostly
