Melee Arts 2

• Weapon base code rewritten, cleaned up, and has most of the jank removed
• Hits are now delayed and properly synced to animation
• The charging UI is an actual HUD element now
• Removed throwing weapons, gun, and knight armor
• Bleeding no longer stacks and instead resets duration on hit
• Better hit and block feedback on melee weapons, nicer effects and sounds
• Better stun feedback
• "Shove parry" removed, was not a focus in this melee system

Please report any bugs in the revamp!

Melee Arts 2 is a PVP based addon that adds a complex melee fighting system.

Get up close and tango with your enemy! Melee Arts requires you to clash weapons and counter various moves.

Best paired with a blood texture overhaul addon.

-Weapons are separated into classes:

• Blades: Blades cause bleeding on hit. Higher severity increases the bleed damage
• Bludgeons: Bludgeons can disarm opponents (Only applicable to MA2 weapons). Higher severity increases the disarm chance
• Axes: Axes apply a debuff to targets, making them take more damage on the next hit. Higher severity increases the modifier
• Spears: Spears have longer range, and can pierce through blocks resulting in a shorter stun duration and more damage
• Quarterstaffs: Staffs start slow but increase in attack rate and charge speed with each hit. Combo reset on miss or holster

-The Culling inspired melee system

-Melee weapons are throwable

These melee weapons revolve around attacking, shoving, and guarding.

• Attacking beats Shoving.
• Shoving beats Blocking.
• Blocking beats Attacking.

Being shoved while blocking/Attacking a blocking enemy will stun you, leaving you open to an attack. You are more vulnerable to attacks while shoving.

Charge your attack to deal more damage.

WALK key will allow you to throw your weapon. Charge for more damage.

BLOCK while charging to cancel charging attacks.

Backstabbing an enemy will deal extra damage.

Hitting metal objects will temporarily stun you.

None of the models, materials, viewmodels, etc. were made by me. I only did the coding.
