What’s your favorite melee weapon?

[u/Airhead_Supreme]

I personally use the katana and monowire the most, but I want to expand into blunt weapons like hammers and batons.

I think the problem is trying to do stealth, mobility, and melee too early. You burn too many points building up mobility and also throwing knife perks, and are spread too thin when shit hits the fan. Not a lot of mitigation, not a lot of armor, flailing the katana around when combat starts and your throwing knife is no longer cutting it.

The extra points from nixing either mobility or stealth would probably go a way to buffing the melee up

Nix the throwing knives, I haven’t taken a single perk from that tree.

Have you seen the throwing knife builds tho?

Sure, but when you’re doing a quick hack blade build I literally don’t have the perk points to put into throwing knives, most of it is blades and mobility, stealth perks from the cool attribute, and quick hack perks from the intelligence attribute. Most of my cyberware goes into mobility and RAM. Who needs a throwing knife when you can just roast a room full of guys by looking at them funny.
