More suggestions if u have them

A throwing knife that you can then collect from the body of your victim would make a melee stealth playthrough a lot of fun, hopefully something like that will be introduced in one of the DLC.

I love how much the skill tree can be customized for melee, and I think they did a good job of supporting this playstyle. There is a good range of melee weapons right now, but I am 100% with you on the improved modding -- there are currently very limited options for most blades and limitations on quite a few blunt bashables, as well - while baseball bats can be made spiked or bladed or chain-wrapped, combat knives only have the option of causing bleed damage or being a stealth blade; and that's only available after investing several perk points in Blacksmith! I feel that adding more options to the customization of melee gear could certainly benefit those of us who enjoy the playstyle. Adding grip mods would certainly be a good first step!

The ball peen hammer should be a weapon instead of a junk item, I was really disappointed when I found our I couldn't bash people's heads in with it.

How people ever enjoyed melee in a fallout game was beyond me. The melee combat is terrible. I'd much rather they add more guns.

If I'm in PA, I want to be able to pick up a ghoul and throw it at other ghouls.

I want this

I would like sledgehammers and fireaxes to be available, I missed them from Fo3, I feel those weapons fit better in the Fallout universe than all the Chinese swords.

That said weapon variety in Fo4 is not great all around, too few base guns, too few base melee weapons.

Also the new powerfist is really dumb, I would much prefer the Fo3 version even though it was silly and would hurt the user as much as the target. I would like to see a powerfist that looks like the Fo3 one, but functions like the Fo1&2 ones, working much like the Supersledge in fist form.

Well why don't you use a sledgehammer then? There are plenty in Fallout 4.

They were? I never saw any, mind you my playthrough wasn't a melee build so I might of glossed over them. I recall it was quite common for raiders to come at me with sledgehammers back in 3 but I didn't notice that all that much this time. But fireaxes certainly I would like to see, like a sledgehammer, only sharp! It's win:win

I like to kill people with a massager. I'm serious though. I want more joke weapons.

They may not be widespread, but they are there. I know there is one at Thicket Excavations, right next to the Water Pump. No Fire Axe, but you do have a Axe in the game, Grognak's Axe.

Joke weapons?

Bludgeon people with lobster floats!

Weaponize rowboat oars!

Fishing rod flail?

Razor tennis racket?

Or more cosplay weapons like Grognak's Axe

Paddle Ball.

I love the idea of adding some throwing knives into the mix, that would be awesome for a stealth character. Also I'd love to see some axes or spears and a CROSSBOW!! Please add a crossbow I think that would be an amazing weapon to use in the wasteland

I also believe they should fix the melee combat because as cool as it is to use a lot of the melee weapons like the world series baseball bat which is my favorite, it's kind of boring after a few enemies because your character does the same swing for every single attack ?? they should at least add to that a little bit to make it more fun to use melee weapons

I want a wasp knife.

I agree there isn't enough variety. Lots of samey weapons.

Melee has nothing really that compares with the top tier guns, and there are only 4 lousy unarmed weapons in the game. I feel like they just barely have given enough to make a build around, and even then only with very heavy investment of perks. Melee and unarmed only seem to be viable as secondary weapon specialties realistically.

I want arm blades like Predator uses. Big retractable steel ones.

I think as far as the melee goes, I'd like to see it given an assignment slot. Like, if you don't want to butt-stroke someone with your rifle, you can instead place a knife, or a ripper if you have one handy by assigning it like a favorite weapon.

The super-sledge is also in the game (along regular sledgehammer). Got it on my melee character and I must say it feels slightly op. Most humans cant take much more than one hit. Which perhaps is realistic when you get heavy sledgehammer crushed on your head and buried into your skull propelled by a mini rocket


They should have made it consume flamer fuel or something (slowly) so i loses the extra damage when dry. The concept art also seems to suggest a sort of timing button to manually control the rocket, but perhaps it wasn't possible and they left it slightly op.


Anyway, even though i think there's plenty of fun melee weapons it would be fun to see some of those tools and misc item usable. They might be incredibly useless when it comes to damage but still would be fun going crazy with a hammer.

am i the only one who finds it some what ironic that, bethesda who is known for their melee oriented rpgs, to have so little melee weapons in f4? lol of course f4 is a shooter primarily but it DOES have an option of melee and its very disappointing for there not to be more original and beautifully constructed melee weapons

If by terrible you mean absurdly over powered.

Skyrim had horrible melee, a trememdous step back from Oblivion.

But yet I (begrudgingly) and many others will agree its one of the GOAT games.

I want a [censored] laser sword. Like in this mod- http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4591/?

I'd also like some joke weapons.
