Melee weapons questions players ask

Which melee class is strongest?

Each class has its own stance and combo reach. Heavy blades trade speed for range and damage, while daggers and fists trade both for crit scaling.

What is attack speed?

The listed value is base swings per second. Combo counter, stance and mods change the real attack rate a lot.

Do these numbers include stance mods?

No. Stance mods and combos add their own multipliers on top of these base values.
