ppl still play this game?
lmao
Bring back GA lunge but also add back stamina cost for basic attacking w melee or tie it to a secondary resource pool similar to mana for casters.
Now make stamina tied to both Dodging and sprinting and revert the movement combat change made sometime b/w Mar-May of this year.
Pretty sure this would allow melee to hit targets more consistently w homing assist but limit the left click spam by tying it to a specific resource that requires management.
no, something is fundementally broken. I am not talking about damage or being OP. you have no clue.
if u say so
Not true.
Go look at all the void gauntlet threads.
Rapier for the best DPS.
Spear for damage and crowd control. I love it when mobs die without even touching me. 
I think first video of someone solo a Myrk portal will be Lifestaff/Voidgauntlet

While I agree with the nerfs. I feel like they should have actually fixed the games desync and geodata before nerfing. Now not just great axe, but melee in general is quite terrible.
I enjoy your comment though, was quite funny. What Playing A MELEE In NEW WORLD Is Really Like.... - YouTube
@Waylander
I was talking about the bleeding sweep perk. Not sweep itself, sweep itself is excellent.
Coup de grace is the perk to sweep!
Axe still poops on people if played right. Hope you enjoy Overwatch.
Coup de grace is an ability in the sweep tree. Iām talking about the perk ābleeding sweepā found on weapons and equipment.
Meta player I see xD
Go for void gauntlet.
Op weapon lovers go for it. It will suit you.
Now link this guys other videos where hes recking people 1v3 with melee?

Me?
I played mage in every mmo so far (that had mage) so I wanted to try melee this time.
Today I tried an OPR with my original Axe/Hatchet buildā¦
I landed some hits on some archer that got caught in grav wellā¦ 2 of 5 hits landed before he rocketed out of it.
I tried to catch up with a runner but bloodlust didnt kick in at all so he just rolled away farther and farterā¦ When I gave up chasing him I got an arrow in my back.
I got caught in a stun so I switched to hatchet for berserk. Got hit by a voidgauntlet so immunity dissapered and I insta died.
Went toe to toe vs a melee. When we both were low on life I pulled out my ace from the sleveā¦I switched to hatchet and did a raging torrent or what the ability is calledā¦didnt land a single hit even if he was standing in front of me. Died to a musket in the back.
GA was not nerfed, it was destroyed. The light attack animation is so slow so people can crawl away from it without beeing hit since lunge nerf.
Melee in general is totally broken due to desync and lagā¦ You often see you land a good hit but the target walks away without a scratch.
GA start light attack swing
Target walks out of range 1m
GA swing is in the middle (killzone)
Target keep walking 1.5m
GA swing ends
Target keep walking 2m
GA swing is still ending
Target keep walking 2.5m
GA swing is still ending
Target keeps walking 3m
GA swing is still ending (or you double clicked and next swing is winding up)
Target keeps walking 3.5m
If you didnt double click GA player can now move again else next swing is still winding up.
The GA is damn slow and you cant animation cancel so you have to wait for the swing to finishā¦ Lunge made up for part of that since it closed the distance someā¦ Now its broken so if they want to keep no lunge they need to extend the weapon reach or increase the animation speed alotā¦
So basically if the target moves as they should they donāt get hit got it.
People like tout āskill based combatā ādark souls type combatā last time I checked skill based and dark souls donāt magnet you onto players when swinging.

Yes because there is a big fu#Ā¤% point in having a weapon in pvp that cant hit targets thats movingā¦
Its like saying arrows shouldnt penetrate heavy armourā¦ You put on a metal armourā¦ as you shouldā¦to not be pierced by arrowsā¦
Then we can have a real #Ā¤% fun game where people move in heavy armour and no one can kill eachother???
Not sure what youāre on about.
I never argued ārealismā
I understand everything you say, the GA is really destroyed and amazon does nothing to solve it ā¦ the people who normally say that now GA is balanced and has no difference from what it was before, are people who never played GA or hatchet or hammer, they are people who are happy because the weapons they use did not nerf horribly, so they do not care if another class dies ā¦ these people do not know how bad it is today playing combinations with GA ā¦ . And it is not because one lacks fingers or ability if it is not because today GA is horribly wrong, fatal it does not make sense that when you have someone next to you and you want to hit him, do not hit him! No matter how good you write, you still donāt give it! and when you supposedly hit him, it goes through his body and does not count as damage ā¦ that also happens with the hatchet. People can just press the W and would NEVER hit them with an ax or hatchet while standing behind and glued to them. I hope amazon fixes this very soon ā¦ It should be noted that I am not asking for an improvement in the GA or hatchet, I ask please to fix those āerrorsā ā¦ which may simply be a bad programming and bad calculations of the developers at the time of ānerfingā the GA (and incidentally also fixing the hatchet in case they forget). Thanks
