Buff up unarmed and melee buids in TB and RT by giving them special perks-update

<< < (9/10) > >>

Unarmed is a good skill in this game. You don't need to craft, repair, buy weapons or ammo. You can beat most enemies in TB, you just have to avoid bursters or strike first and strike hard.

The downside is that in pvp you will always die.

Melee sucks. Sure super catle prod can hit for nice damage, but you need to craft it, get ammo etc, so you migth as well use a gun...

...as for the realism gun vs knife... You grab his hand holding the gun, force it aside and stab him while he's fighting to regain his gun.

I agree with everything except the bolded line. The whole notion is that the gunman would be able to shoot you down before you even got to him. Eex wants to make it so that a melee/unarmed person can dance through a flurry of bullets and punch all his opponents in the face, killing them outright... And that's absolutely ridiculous. 

This idea kind of goes with the bolded statement. INCREASE the critical failure rate of gunners standing too close to their targets. Critical failure in that case could involve some sort of tussle for the gun or a physical action such as the gun being knocked from your hand in the heat of battle.

What enemies? NPC like raiders? Even 4 mercs near SF and you're dead.
As for vs. player, you will not kill even 1 lvl bluesuit, because he will simply walk away.

I've killed deathclaws with a spiked knuckle, beat unity patrols with haymakers, I can kill anything with 120-150 hp in one turn with a rock. Never killed a player.

Its not useless its just not as good as guns.

And just for the record, I don't want hth fighters to turn into jedi, sneak attacks is the only valid option for me... Or 'In your face!' perk.

You made my day.

+1 for an idea. IMHO melee builds really need a good boost. (FIX THIS DAMNED "HTH EVASION" PERK AT LEAST)
