I think meleeshould go back to the Halo 1-3 days where it only depleted a little more than half your shields, but still with bleedthrough, i think 2 hit melee is a little strong, because you can instantly exposing people to headshots even if you couldn’t land a single hit on them before
Just a question, don’t take this too deep
Melee is now more powerful than ever with Thrust-Smacks, Charging, and Ground-Pounding.
I agree that Melee should be more situational and skillful, but unfortunately they’ve moved in the complete opposite direction already.

um halo 3 has a 2 hit melee kill.
Yeah, the melee in halo 3 took no skill whatsoever. Just shoot with assault rifle, melee.

It was like this in halo 2 as well with the smg to be fair this is how melee has operated since halo 2.
So you mean Halo 2’s melee system, which is the weakest of them all? 1 and 3 are 2 hit kills.

Skillfull? The only variant of “melee” that actually required skill was jumping backwards over your opponent and hitting him in the back. Besides, if 343i tried to make melee harder to pull off people would just complain that it messed with the “simplistic” nature of the mechanic.
Guys we’re talking about smacking people in the face when they’re close to us. It shouldn’t be complex and I like the melee as it was in Halo 3 and Halo 4 with the bleedthrough.
Should we really have to do something miraculous? What next a mystical button combo to do a corkscrew while holding the sword and deflect anything shot at you while looking fabulous?

There was a time when melees actually had to be aimed and didn’t just lunge at your opponent automatically from across the map.
2 melee kill is so much better than how it was before halo 3. shield pop should never come back

True to some extent. Pretty sure that time ended with Halo 2, something I personally wouldn’t consider one of its shining moments.

That’s weird, it’s also 3 hit kill in the same in the remade versions of this games

Nope.
Go load up Halo 3 on your MCC now. Halos 2 (Post-TU Halo 2), 3, 4, and Reach were 2 hit melees. Halo: CE was 4 melee kill.

No it was 2 hit kill. 2 hit kill came after the halo 2 title update.
I agree.
I like it the way it is.
