Am I better off carrying one melee weapon or investing in stagger resistance perks to fight off melee attackers? As it stands, I often have to either shoot melee attackers before they reach me or beat them back with a Va’Ruun Painblade because they probably won’t give me enough time to reload my shotgun.
Okay, another option has come to my attention: I could start actually investing in combat-tree skills enough to go for Rapid Reloading.
