ChaosUT2 Melee: The Basics
|
|
ChaosUT2 Melee is an all new 3rd person fighting system which features brand new weapons and custom animations. The melee weapons are featured in our Duel and Horde Hunters game types, but they are also available in the Chaos versions of DM, TDM, and KOTH. This page is not specific to any game type however, and covers the basics of the melee fighting system itself. Players will choose from a variety of weapons, which are described below, however there are some features which are basic to most of them. For example, your primary fire key is always used to attack, and your alt fire key is always used for blocking. In addition, players can choose from 3 different 'stances' (strong, medium, and light) which help control which block or attack that you perform. To change from one stance to another, use the ChaosUT2 'Switch Ammo' key (see configs page), and it will toggle thru all 3. There will be a text message on the bottom right of your screen which will indicate which stance you are in. Blocking:
Attacking:
And just as in blocking, moving left or right might produce a different attack than if you were standing still or jumping. Try them all, and see what you find! This was intended as a general guide only, enough to show you the basics. But the best method to learn this new ChaosUT2 melee system, and all that is possible in it,
might be to simply jump right in the game and play for hours and hours on end (and we encourage this!).

Long Tooth Daggers
Templar
Just like the knights of old, you can wield this two handed sword to defeat your enemies. Its blade is the longest your will find and gives you good protection. Used wisely none shall cross your path!
Long Axe
Once used on trees, this weapon can chop
your enemies up into tiny bits. Its longer handle and smaller blade give
you a decent range, which means you will have to take aim. Many warriors
have underestimated the axe and paid the ultimate price for their error.
Double Axe
When one blade on your axe is just not enough, upgrade! It may have a short range but the two large blades make up all of the difference. When you really want to let them know who is the boss, use this double edged baby!
Bastard Sword
Where it all began! The
Bastard Sword was first melee weapon to exist in Chaos, dating back to the days of Quake2.
It has gone thru some design changes here and there, but remains one of
the most well known features of Chaos. Ignored by many, enjoyed by some,
and practically a religion to others, this weapon has a rich
history...., and a new life just begun!
Mace
A common medieval weapon, favored by foot
soldiers, knights, and men at arms. An iron shaft and a head of steel
provides enough power to smash the hardest armor and even cranial bones!
Katana
Once a weapon for the true
sword masters, it has been brought back to life for those skilled or
daring enough to wield it. While this sword of the elite may have short
range, its extremely lethal blade can inflict major damage to your
opponent when used in true samurai style.
War Hammer
The WarHammer is a massive weapon,
designed to deliver very painful, bone-crunching blows. It may be
cumbersome to carry and use, but when done properly, you won't have to
swing it often. Death comes quickly under the weight of this beast.

Chaotic Dreams
While they may be short in range, the attacks possible with these dual daggers are extremely lethal. Due to their nature, they are most effective in the hands of very agile players.
Inspired
by the Skaarj's own personal claws, these are the latest addition to the
melee arena. These claws provide the wielder with much potential for
close range damage as the claws are attached to your wrists. You must
sacrifice range if you choose these weapons.
This
weapon was used by the Monks of old. First as a training tool, then as
an instrument of death on the field of battle.
