When to melee?
You should melee everything you can. Try melee, if you fail, try again. You can swap to the cookie cutter Longbow/Bear combination anytime, but melee > range in, idk, 99% of the PvE content?
If you can melee without dying, you should be meleeing.
If you die whilst meleeing then one of three things are true:
1. You’re facing one of the surprisingly small number of bosses for which meleeing is suicide.
2. Your team totally sucks.
3. You’re doing something wrong and need to improve.
3 should be your default outlook. 1 is the least likely.
all day, err’y day
…it’s basically the only way you’ll ever get good at 1h sword b/c that thing’s just got a kitten mind-of-its-own half the time.
