In XDefiant, a melee attack is a weapon available in XDefiant.
Overview[]
The ability to perform a close-quarters melee attack is available to all classes and cannot be deselected or changed. Melee attacks have infinite "ammunition", and perform 65 damage on hit. The player character will use their equipped weapon as a club in melee attacks.
Victims of a melee attack will have their movement speed temporarily halved for 0.25 seconds.
Patch Notes[]
September 25th, 2024 Patch
- Victims of melee attacks now suffer a movement penalty of half speed for a quarter of a second, exactly enough time to say, "Ow, hey!"
