Melee Weapons Character Guide

Melee weapons are one of the two official weapon families in Apocalypter — "many different melee and ranged weapons" per the store page. They need no ammunition, which makes them the dependable daily tool in a world where every bullet has to be looted or bought with rusted nuts.

Melee is at its best against scavenging enemies near loot sites, when ammo is scarce, and as a backup when a gun runs dry mid-fight. Body armor — the official character upgrade — is the recommended companion: melee range means you will take hits, and armor turns those hits from lethal into survivable.

The exact melee weapon roster and per-weapon stats are being crowdsourced during launch week. The official description confirms variety across the melee family; this entry will carry the confirmed stat table as soon as the community documents it.
