To give titans an advantage with our T-Rex arms. There's a reason people joke about strength being a worthless stat for titans... because we can't hit a damned thing. Hunters could complete this bounty half way across the map if they were half decent at aiming. When I think melee, I think about being punched in the face, not throwing knifed across the map (CoD gives me enough memories of these try hards).

It's the hunters throwing arm . Piss weak!! Next question !!!

Well face armour has has some major advances lately. Also shoulder charge is an "ability" not a meele.

I love how most people defend shoulder charge by saying it's a perk, and must be specced into, without touching on the fact that for PVP, where knives are relevant, hunters use incendiary blade....an additional perk...speccing into more damage. Same argument holds true. A perk that allows you your one shot melee should give me mine. At least mine is on a REAL cooldown, and takes some form of aiming.

[quote]This thread is now changed to [u]Weekend Recipes[/u] Cinnamon rolls Ingredients: 1 packet instant yeast, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup Earth balance (vegan butter), divided, 1/4 tsp salt , 3 cups all purpose flour, 1/2 Tbsp cinnamon, 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp sugar, divided. Instructions: In a large sauce pan (or in a bowl in the microwave at 30 sec increments), heat the almond milk and 3 Tbsp Earth Balance until warm and melted, never reaching boiling. Remove from heat and let cool to 110 degrees, or the temperature of bath water. It should be warm but not too hot or it will kill the yeast. Transfer mixture to a large mixing bowl and sprinkle on yeast. Let activate for 10 minutes, then add 1 Tbsp sugar and the salt and stir. Next add in flour 1/2 cup at a time, stirring as you go. The dough will be sticky. When it is too thick to stir, transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for a minute or so until it forms a loose ball. Rinse your mixing bowl out, coat it with canola or grapeseed oil, and add your dough ball back in. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a thin rectangle. Brush with 3 Tbsp melted Earth Balance and top with 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 - 1Tbsp cinnamon. Starting at one end, tightly roll up the dough and situate seam side down. Then with a serrated knife or a string of floss, cut the dough into 1.5 - 2 inch sections and position in a well-buttered 8x8 square or comparable sized round pan (you should have about 10 rolls). Brush with remaining 2 Tbsp Earth Balance (melted) and cover with plastic wrap. Set on top of the oven to let rise again while you preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Once the oven is hot, bake rolls for 25-30 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes and then serve immediately. Optional: Frost with dairy free cream cheese frosting or a simple mixture of powdered sugar and almond milk.[/quote]

Because it says "[i]close-quarters[/i] melee". A thrown knife isn't close quarters.

How can a knife go through plaSTEEL.

This is more embarassing than goku vs superman. [spoiler]virginity confirmed[/spoiler]

Let's get this straight, this is a game that regards space magic as the rule of thumb. Let's just throw out realism 1st. And secondly, if you want a knife to 1hk a target, then why does it take a multiple bullets to kill the target when? And lastly, almost all the top PvP players in the world are Hunters. A distant second are Warlocks and far far away are Titans. Hunters don't need a buff because they reign supreme in PvP. That's the PvP world hierarchy. In PvE, it's pretty much even out throughout all 3 classes. You can't go wrong with any class here. So regardless of melee strength abilities, supers, and armor load outs, Hunters are a unique class that caters to the PvP environment. Perfectly built to kill other guardians. Sorry to say that but it is what it is. Hunters rule in the PvP world. So why buff a knife when it's the human tact and skill that wins the match? Btw, I main a titan defender, sometimes I wish I could just throw my fist across the map at other guardians but that defeats the purpose of being a defender. Cheers!

"A story of Saint-14 holds that, when grappling with a great Kell, he caved in the Fallen's head with one blow from his own." So a titan was able to kill a Kell with a headbutt. While wrestling with it. So he killed a kell without even needing to work up the momentum of a shoulder charge. And we've all seen that a Kell can survive Gjallarhorn shots which no Guardian can do.

I look at as being hit by a truck going several miles an hour versus getting a piece of glass stuck in your forehead. Something i've personally experienced.
