Melee

Resumo

Melee Attacks are those that directly hit with a melee Strike or a Slam, dealing Melee damage. Melee attacks usually scale from Weapon or Unarmed damage.

Any Projectiles these attacks create do not count as Melee damage.

Melee generally refers to one of two things:

• A playstyle defined by a set of skills (usually attacks) performed while either unarmed (meaning to have no weapon equipped), or with a martial weapon, where your character either performs an attack at a target within your strike distance, or performs a slam on the ground to hit all enemies within the slam's area of effect.
• A gem tag denoting skills that use the aforementioned melee playstyle
