Does shoulder charge count as a melee? I don't think it would, it isn't their official melee.....
English
-
Shoulder charges count as melee attacks in both crucible and iron banner bounties. If it registers there, my guess is that it registers with the stats.
-
Throwing knives should count as a melee.
-
It's still a melee attack though.
-
I understand what it is. I just don't think it is their melee. Throwing knives do count because that is in their melees spot. Shoulder charge is technically not a melee, considering it is in their last slot.
-
throwing knives don't count as melees
-
yes they do, that is the gunslingers melee ability. It doesn't matter what is technically a melee or not, its all about where the melee slot is.
-
It counts throwing knife as melee in PvE as far as I understand but not in PvP. It even shows a different icon in the kill feed than a melee kill. Doesn't help melee bounties in crucible.
-
The shoulder charge doesn't show up as a melee icon either. It all depends on the slot your melee ability is. Titans is storm fist. Not shoulder charge

Edited by filleparisienne: 8/28/2015 1:36:27 AMIf you really care you can test it by playing one match with a hunter getting a melee and throwing knife kill and see the change in your totals Throwing knives dont help melee bounties in crucible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Denarux7SOA 28 seconds in it shows shoulder charge showing the same icon as a melee "After sprinting for a short time, press (R1) to unleash a devastating melee attack." The game calls it a melee
