I've been running around testing this. The damage done by using 'blink strike' ability(hunter subclass bladedancer) is equal to that of standard melee, both hunter subclasses. The ability 'blink strike' is described as being "A powerful melee attack with extended range." Inquiring as to whether this is meant to be the balance or if it is a mistake.

The backstab perk is bugged and can let you OHKO from behind and in front but it may also depend on the victims FoV and weather you're in it i remember that being exploited in BF3 knife fights (a reference you may relate to :D)

The blink strike does more damage from behind only.

Hi, hi. My friend is a complete addict and knows mostly everything about this game, a little too much if you ask me. But he is always crying about this damage cap thing. He states that when fighting a Dreg that is level 5 and you are say a level 32, you would do the same damage to that Dreg as a level 20-31 would do. So try testing this on enemies in your level range. Hope my friend is right and not making me seem like a complete idiot. Good Luck. :)

Either way it could 2-hit a enemy. Doesn't really matter and idk why it should be raised. I think it should say " a melee attack with extended range". Hunters are smaller, they regularly won't do as much damage as a titan fist or a warlock wave melee.
