That’s not my experience with melees.
How come if “game is friendlier than ever to melee builds” top20 went from 11 pure melees last time to 0 this time around? How come Avenger builds went from top10 to not even being among 70 builds tested? Or how come Belgothian Blademaster, Grim Dawn’s poster boy for melee, never came close to any of the power rankings, despite having bonkers OA/damage numbers and fully loaded wps pool?
