I have a small clan called the Melee Fighters. It is a group of melee specialists, but that does not mean we do not use firearms, we just prefer close combat. There are no special conditions to join, however it is to your benefit to have high agility, close combat, and constitution if you really do want to be a quality melee fighter.

 

TheWicked: Moved.

If I already wasn't in Myth I would so join this. I've killed every zombie I've seen with my katana and have over 50 agility at level 10. I'm looking to have 100 agility before level 20. ;P

For Shame, I thought you were a Melee user!

Oh, he bought ammo...

now why would he need 100 7.62's if he was a melee fighter? hmmmm?

Oh well...

Read the above description, I do not forsake firearms and like to buy ammo in bulk. What I do his weaken a big target with long range attacks and tear them to pieces at close range-it is more a solid battle tactic. I only use one fire arm and that was only because it got boring killing zombies with a chainsaw.

See I was more of hoping that you would forsake firearms to a degree. Especially with a character called 'Melee' it just seems wrong to use guns. Like if another player was called marksman and put everything into close combat. Same deal.

Inflexibility of war tactics has led to the decision of more wars than any weapon in history. I specialize in melee and do it so well that close combat for me is more efficient than using my rifle. I love close combat, but I do not forsake any means of inflicting harm. I uses grenades, firearms and my chainsaw its all there. I adopted fire arms at level 19, because it would be hypocritical of me to criticize players who only love using fire arms and I myself only use melee. It both amounts to inflexibility and refusal to learn new things, so it was high time to diversify the repertoire of ass whoop. However, for my level, I am willing to assert that I may be to most dangerous melee fighter-- with the exception of one player who inspired me to create a player who specializes in melee in the first place. I strive for very high agility, a hardy amount of hp and close combat; yes I have low marksmanship in case you were wondering, but it is getting average at very slow speed. I'm still a melee fighter after all, firearms are only supplemental to my close combat. Once perks are implemented it will be no body's surprise that I'll tend invest in melee over other perks.

Since the creation of the clan Melee fighters, it has admitted two new members: sycokiller101 and Micharlus Cheep. The clan will never be big, but its members will all be stone cold killers that can take out zombies with close combat.

Well said Lurch, but have you checked your members xD?

There is only two other players who are at a beginning level now and the other one is alternate player who I never play with any more. My hope is that his clan will be the melee specialists who put a special flavor to the game.

Man I was all about joining Myth, then I read this thread.

The lead recruiter of another guild badmouthing another guy like this just because he uses ranged in a beta game...

A true survivor is flexible and to use only one tactic will be dumb. The Melee Fighters specialize in melee and love close combat, but we will use a grenade or firearm whenever it is needed. We aren't part of the bandwagon like the popular clans and we will never be--feel free to join if you are interested in joining a minority clan with everything to prove.

Greetings Melee Fighters

As per Lurchdeath's conversation the true survivor is flexible...like a game of Chess...behold the simple pawn and the many parts it can play in winning the age old strategy of war.

Cheers

Thanks XenaMorphed. The future of Melee is still unknown, since a lot of the game hasn't been created yet. We will evolve with the changes to the game or when a need arises.

You're most welcome. Lurchdeath

Hope to see you around in game sometime!

Cheers

Aye, One pawn could be all that is left against 30 pawns and that pawn may still be victorious.

To all Melee Fighters. The Melee Fighters are currently too small to sustain a safe house for very long. We will have to play nice and kindly abide by the rules of a host clan if we wish to temporarily occupy their safe house. That being said, we are a loose group that live a nomadic life to begin with, so we really don't stick to one place or one alliance for very long. This may change in the future if our numbers rise, but for the time being this is our reality. You may or may not choose to abide by this tip, but it is to your benefit to keep this mind once safe houses are up and running.

My character, Melee, has mediocre marksmanship. However, I have tried using the compound bow as a one of my few ranged weapons, but I would miss so many times and the attack power was so low that I burned money and SP like crazy. I tried the grenades, they hit hard, but it had low accuracy and range.

Grenade launchers were O.K. The one I had could hold six rounds, but it's damage ranged from 15-50, so it was not too reliable damage wise. So I have moved on to the RPG. It works for me. I seldom use ranged attacks, but when I do I want to hit as hard as possible, so I don't mind paying for the price of grenades. No, I don't plan to use the minigun. It is a great weapon, but it is so overpowered that it will take all of the challenge out of the game.

This leads to my next point of evolution. I will *gasp* build up my marksmanship a little for the sake of not wasting expensive grenades. On top of being a Melee specialist I may become an explosive guy on the side, that is if things like claymore mines and dynamite get implemented; with that being said I will eventually have to build up technical skills if I want to customize all my equipment.

For the time being, I have been crashing at gun stores, because I have a place to sell all of the ammo I loot, it is always well barricaded and there are a lot of people to keep the place safe. Kind of ironic.

R.I.P Irus.

When the beta portion of this game ends, I will probably hand down the character name of "Melee" to a chosen individual. The next "Melee" will have to take control of the clan and any of the changes that it may entail.

This is a very good statement, and should be made as your clan slogan.

Thank you Einji. At unrelated note, according to the blog the mini gun had some of its offensive power minimized. That will probably make a few people upset, but it is for the greater good of the game. It will balance out the game play a little more.

May I join?
currently lvl 2, at the college and got my first kill with a golf club <3

Yes, frielle you can join. There are no special conditions to join the clan. Look up the character Melee or Melee Fighters under the clans list.
