Melee Attack or Close Combat is a form of attack that can be executed by playable characters and some enemies, too. It is the opposite of ranged attacks, as the character fights by being close to the opponent. Some characters have simple shoulder charges, while other have combo attacks consisting of 3-5 different moves.
Damage Increase upgrade.
Melee Attacks always have one or more Damage Increase upgrades in the Skill Tree. Some characters also have Block Breakers, Power Attacks, and Strong Finish' that can be unlocked by upgrading their Skill Trees.
Block Breaker[]
Block Breaker upgrade.
A Block Breaker is an attack done by holding in the 'attack' button. This makes the Character do a powerful attack, that breaks an opponents block. When enemies are about to do a Block Breaker, they flash, as a warning to the player. Block Breakers can either be a single move, or a combo with three different moves that can be ended early. Block Breakers can also be done by most Weapon Packs, regardless of Skill Tree upgrades.
