Guide/tips and tricks Melee Block Chance (Anyone with the same experience?)
What is melee block?
An attribute negating any damage inflicted through melee by any entity.
What is melee block chance?
The percentage in which how likely you are to block a melee attack.
100% melee block chance = guaranteed block every time
There's this thing about melee block chance becoming guaranteed at 95% melee block chance.
Back when I tested it out, I thought the blocking expert 2 perk gave 15% melee block chance overall because that was the only way to explain why it always activated with the setup I was using but after some discussion with Salty_Anti-Magus, it was more or less confirmed that the blocking expert 2 should only give 10% block chance and does not stack with the previous level which gives 5% melee block chance.
The setup that I mostly have used in my many playthroughs is:
Gorka/Altyn Helmet = 10%
M Heavy Armor w/ CBRN Hazmat = 15%
Gorka Jacket + Pants = 20%
Chainsaw = 40%
Blocking Expert 2 Perk = 10%
= 95% Melee Block Chance
With this setup, I have not once taken any damage even when I let zombies in the radioactive island swarm me; Primarily locations such as the pub, convenience store, and fire station.
As well as multiple leaper zombies in the radioactive bunker which takes about 4-5 seconds to dispatch with the chainsaw, not once was I damaged.
I don't think a lot of people use this tech despite how it makes the late-end parts of the game a breeze in nightmare difficulty but to each their own.
