Think about it, how often is it used in Borderlands? I mean there is Brick and Zero, but I didn't find either of their melees to be all that satisfying to use. Is a traditional melee attack REALLY needed in Destiny? Are you OK with just an elbow or simple fist punch?
I understand it in competitive multiplayer (such as in Halo), I think its invaluable and has to be there, but what about in a coop game? What can be done to make it feel more useful? Is there even a way to make it work better?

What if different classes had different types of melee? The Hunter would be all about getting to the enemy and delivering that killing blow. It's all about getting to the enemy. The Warlock would involve some kind of space magic in his move, perhaps making the enemy come to him? And the Titan would be very aggressive. His melee attacks would stagger enemies, knocking them back a little and making their gunfire or melee attacks a little less effective, making it difficult to counter attack.
