Buff Melee perk to be a bit faster for shovels

I would like to see the melee perk effect a shovel’s swing speed a bit more than what it currently is. Trenches aren’t used much because they take so long to dig and with the exception of Normandy campaign aren’t deep enough to help too much. Even trying to dig out a foxhole can take a fair amount of time.

Expanding the melee perk to have this faster shovel speed would be much appreciated by those that play engineer to help support their team.

EDIT: perhaps adding an additional digging perk that can stack with melee perk could work better.

also I tend to dig my way to the objectives if it’s too hard to break through especially in LF. It can take so much time.

Shovels should also have a actually melee animation as well, I should cut with shovel to attack, not dig someone.

Flat spot for Rally… Does not work :<

I agree… after 65K kills I think a career diggin makes my morals feel better… How many kills does one person need? How about a golden shovel? Shovel upgrades!

I would love to run with the shovel… or make a rally in a trench…

FFS don’t dig trench on the road, You are making friendly tank easier to be stuck.

Blown away on how flat you made that area with the AA and the rally / sandbags…

Looks like you use a excavator and a leveling stick…
