It is ridiculous that 4 melees do the equivalent damage of 10 pistol rounds. This is crazy in the beginning of a round when you pick up a pistol and blast someone 6 times in the chest but they kill you anyways with some melees.
Just stupid in my opinion, nerf melees.
Looki looki a real 4chan wannabe, why don't you pack your shoot and gtfo. He got a point even if it is about skill/ decision making. Keep it to yourself, redditcancer.
Melee is fine. Want to know what you should have done? Melee him as well and while he's knocked back from the punch, shoot him a couple of times with your pistol as you close the gap to melee him again. Rinse and repeat. You would have killed him way faster than he could have dropped you with his melee only. You got 100% outplayed. Learn from it and better yourself instead of complaining about it on the forums.
Melee feels great in Apex.
The knockback really works well to avoid the idiotic PUBG style point-blank range body blocking, jumping, camera direction punching mess.
The push back distance is irrelevant when after a melee you can immediately start sprinting to melee again and the magnet lock distance for melee is about 4 feet. The person getting hit has no real reaction time when the second they get knocked back they're already in melee range again. And since sprint speeds are the same across all characters you don't even have the advantage if you try to turn around and shoot.
The damage is fine, but they need to nerf the magnet lock range. Melee isn't actually melee if you can sprint slide and lock onto a person from shooting distance and land a hit like it's the Halo 2 energy sword.
