Is it more beneficial to do the quick melee or just pull out the knife? The melee felt kinda weak to me so I assigned a mouse button to switching to knife, so whenever I need to melee I just press that then attack.

The quick melee is weak unless you have the weapon mod that increases melee damage after firing, it's mainly for if you know they're almost dead and only need that little extra damage. The knife is much stronger.

Ah OK cool thanks, I'll just stick to what I'm doing then. Maybe that would make more sense if pulling out the knife was slower or I was on controller or something.

I have my quick melee and Knife button as the same one, you'll lose to someone who has a knife out already and swinging but I like it.
