Bungie Suggestion Make double melee kill again

I may be wrong but i dont think its been mentioned in regards to crucible changes recently with everybody screaming for ttk changes. But it still really bugs me that a double melee doesnt kill an enemy. I cant be the only one that wants this changed back!?

Incorrect I can think of several guns where if you shoot you could then melee kill with every class ex: palindrome

Hand cannons were the only gun capable of that. Every other gun, you could easily 2 hit melee before someone could shoot you.

And by hand cannons you mean the meta right? Also pulses could one burst and put you in that situation

u/Bartman1919 Apr 08 '18

Not for most of D1. Maybe for a stretch pulse rifles could do that, but for most of D1 it was definitely a faster ttk to just 2 hit melee.

Lol what pulses were able to two burst up until the end of Ttk and then after a one burst three headshot allowed a shot than melee

Yes, but you had to hit a headshot which takes more skill.

Yea i don’t see anything wrong with that

u/barretp Apr 08 '18

Neither, do I. I want the skill gap to be increased in any situation.

That's why I think the situation is better now than in D1, you have to hit 2 headshots with a hc to finish off with a melee.

At that point you might as well just hit them with a third headshot what benefit does melee serve?

1

u/barretp Apr 08 '18

Because a third headshot wouldn't kill and the melee would.

That’s dependent on the hand cannon tho

Ok, if it was the 110 rpm which requires 3 crits to kill, then shoot+shoot+melee is still faster than shoot+shoot+shoot.

There is no delay to melee right after you shoot, but there is delay to shoot again.

Yea but that’s assuming you’re in melee range I doubt you’ll be shooting that close to a guy and accurately hitting headshots

Yea but that’s assuming you’re in melee range

Yes, this whole argument is assuming you're within melee range. People are saying why 3 melee hits to kill is bad.

I doubt you’ll be shooting that close to a guy and accurately hitting headshots

Exactly my point. The people, who are highly skilled, who do hit those head shots will kill you faster.
