Tips on using melee weapons in Free Fire 2021

Using melee weapons in Free Fire is quite common, however, understanding and leveraging their power can certainly be helpful in many cases. This article will list some tips on using the most effective melee weapon in Free Fire.

List of melee weapons in Free Fire 2021

Currently, there are 6 melee weapons in Free Fire: Katana Sword, Baseball Bat, Machete, Pan, Scythe and Fist.

Sword Katana

The katana is the weapon of the samurai and is often associated with Hayato in Free Fire. Overall, this sword is one of the best melee weapons with good reach and high lethality.

Baseball bat

The baseball bat has the same range as the Katana but does slightly lower damage since it is not a sharp weapon.

Scimitar

Although the machete has the same damage power as the Katana, it has a shorter range, so it is much more difficult to attack the enemy.

Pan

The pan has lower range and damage compared to the other weapons on this list, but it can do fatal damage if it hits an opponent in the head.

Scythe

The newly launched scythe is probably the best melee weapon in the current Free Fire with 50% more damage than other weapons and a much longer reach due to its long grip. With the scythe, you can attack enemies more easily. However, the weakness of this weapon is the slow swing speed.

Fist

Fist attacks are usually pretty harmless, unless you have the skill and 500% of Kla’s damage power. With this boost, your punches will turn into deadly melee weapons.

Tips on using melee weapons in Free Fire

• You need to close the gap between yourself and the target as quickly as possible – this can be done by activating speed boosting skills like Alok’s Drop the Beat or placing Chrono’s Shield between you and the target. However, the easier it was to ambush enemies from within buildings.
• Your weapon can block bullets – you can swing them repeatedly at enemies shooting at you to reduce the risk of injury.
• Unless you get hit in the head, it will take 4 to 5 shots to take you down – take advantage of this to hit the opponent in the head with a melee weapon (especially if you use a Pan).
• You can increase the damage with Kla’s fists at maximum level, but you need to get as close to the opponent as possible to be able to hit them.
