I didn't say it wasn't weaker, I said it was still too powerful. A single melee hit should not instantly deplete the shields of an undamaged player. The fact that it does opens the door for all kinds of faggoty tactics, like melee headshotting and the double smack. The melee attacks take literally no skill to use (particularly with the advent of Sprint and Evade), therefore they should not be a primary weapon.

e: also, I was being sarcastic when I said the stickies home in on people.


Mostly.
