some months ago a helper here told me that the 4 costing yellow perk for 20% more melee speed also makes melee charges run faster.
some people recently told me they tried it and they werent faster (though 20% can be hard to notice, especially when stacked with other bonuses).
—> does anyone have a clear answer looking from the way this perk is coded?
This perk only affects melee attack speed, so you won’t be faster by charging, I did say no when you asked it for the first time😁
ok, then someone else said yes. alright, ill keep that in mind.
is there an effect on the starting of the charge animation? since thats bugged often times and starting it faster might be beneficial, though the overall effect is so small then, that the perk becomes quite useless when having anything better than a knife.
Another question: Are there any items in the game where having the + 100% damage are worth it?
Since axes/swords/bayonets kill soldiers with one hit, its not worth it.
But possibly being able to damage light armor/engineer structure more effectively might be worth it.
Knives and shovels, but you’d use an axe or a sword
I guess it could be useful if you just rifle-butt someone but since AI reacts extremely fast to melee you would die most of the time
Needs to be tested, but I don’t think it does
