Searching for a good close combat build

[Nemesis]

Does someone know a good close combat build. I don't find any.

Clawbringer and Berzerker guy. But its Borderlands so your going to be using a gun more than running up and chopping someone with an axe.

You will want BrrZerker/Stabbomancer, lots of stuff to boost melee damage.

This is not a good combination for melee damage I thought at the beginning also that would be the best for it but unfortunatly not

Wrong. My build says otherwise. Melee is feasible in this game, you just have to build for it.

stabmancer also... i think the oly one who got atually skills for melee speed and crit.. also good for sniping i think... the classes are mess

[dustin1280]

Berzerker for your primary...
Stabbomancer or Clawbringer for your secondary

I didn't say you could not play that way. But it easier just to shoot them. I might play it over again and just melee.

Game is not out yet so no one knows.

Yet all of the PC talk comes to the store that it is not released on. ♥♥♥♥ epic.

either the fire slam from clawbringer or the cyclone/whirlwind skill from brrzerker. stabbomancer's rotating blade is fun, too, but that feels more like a spell to me personally.

Easier maybe but not as effective as melee'ing if you are built for it.

If you are Stabbomancer going From the Shadows is what you want, not the blade.

why's that? the blade has some of the best uptime out of any skill and would be insane with something like brr-zerker's frost nova proc and the 10% to apply status effects on melee crit from stabbomancer. I'm leveling this build right now and don't see why I would ever switch especially once I get more investment in action skill CDR, no offense.

From the Shadows gives you crits for days is why. Dps would be higher than the blade. If you are having fun with your build cool, I'm just talking most efficient.
